You saved the day! FEDLINK became the Federal government procurement Executive Agent for over $515M in information products. We could not have earned this role without your coaching and hands-on help with our presentation.

In all the years as executive director, I cannot remember watching a keynote from start to finish. I’m typically handling any number of conference-related questions or issues. For Ira’s keynote, I stayed the entire time. His warmth, humor, and passion engaged the audience members from the first few words. Ira energized the audience with a variety of insightful approaches to being stronger communicators and better business storytellers. Six months later, our members are still talking about him.

As a non-native English speaker, I had been nervous about public speaking. I was prepared, in control, natural, funny. I had my best presentation in my ‘American’ life! Love you for turning me into a PRO!

It was more than a keynote, it was a kickoff. Ira excited our group with new ways of looking at our industry. I loved that he engaged our members quickly and fully. It's rare for us to have the entire audience participating. Ira had us out of our seats with relevant and fun exercises. Our members were talking about Ira's keynote conference presentation throughout the event and have continued to do so. It was a great start to our conference.

“We have just one opportunity to present our story, our capabilities, our ‘why us?’” And after her big presentation, Gloria called Ira and told him, “The presentation went very, very, very well! Amara landed the contract.”

I love our investor presentation deck. And I love how much easier public speaking is for me now. Thank you for all of your coaching. It really, really, really paid off. I have won numerous pitch competitions. I've been featured in magazines. And most importantly, we raised over $1M in our first round. THANK YOU!

Simplify and tell better stories… Those were my big takeaways. You helped me develop and deliver an "unforgettable conference presentation" at the most important industry conference. Your help was instrumental in my success. More participants than ever before came up to me afterward to talk, to learn more, and to request follow up meetings.
