RAVE REVIEWS

“Lori was fabulous! All 175 attendees were totally involved in her keynote presentation. Our audience is usually fairly reserved, but she had them laughing and applauding throughout, and they flocked to talk to her afterwards. Truly, Lori's presentation was the highlight of the conference.”
- Tony Shaw, President, 
Wilshire Conferences, Inc.


“Lori is a dynamic storyteller and powerful presenter. Lori led two workshops for our professional organization (‘Say NO to Networking‘ and ’Wake Me Up When the Data Is Over’) and they were filled with valuable tools to add to our professional tools boxes. Lori does a great job of engaging people through visual, auditory and kinesthetic learning experiences, which help make a long-term, positive impact. The exercises she led us through were informative and relevant in today’s business environment. Lori’s high energy and positive attitude makes it a pleasure to work with her.”

“I want to personally thank you for delivering an outstanding presentation for NSA Wisconsin. Your topic: 'Beyond the Signature Story: Using Stories to Build Additional Revenue Streams' generated excellent attendance and brought out veteran chapter members to determine their desired outcomes laid the groundwork for one of the most content-rich sessions we have ever had. I really appreciate the fact your message aims high and targets the needs of advanced speakers. For those speakers who think they've "heard it all," I would strongly suggest they think again and apply your strategies and techniques to generate significantly more business from their current and former clients. Thanks again for everything. May our paths cross often.”
