He was able to effectively reach out to participants at all levels and was able to move the entire group farther along the process to adopt and understand the value of social media for business. Alan spoke in front of business owners (45-70 demographic) and eloquently stated a case for the business value of using social media as a communication tool. I would highly recommend Alan McLaren for your organization.

We hired Alan to speak to an audience mainly unfamiliar with the Social Media scene. Alan was able to communicate this new topic in a very non-technical manner and motivate many people to act and start using Social Media for their business. I would most certainly recommend Alan for any speaking engagement.

As program Director for Camp Enterprise, I had invited Alan to address over 50 high school students on how Social Media was transforming Business communications. Overall the students found it very informative and entertaining. Feedback included the following quotes:
- " very engaging videos. Related to our age so made it more interesting."
- " very good presentation, a mind opening experience to the affects of social media."
Alan was able to engage the younger generation on a topic that is dear to their heart and bridge that interest to help them understand the critical impact Social Media is having on the Business world. As a business owner myself, the message came through loud and clear with Alan's use of easy to understand terminology. Ralf

Alan is very engaging and well prepared. His one hour presentation on social media was one of the conference highlights and I noticed many attendees taking notes. He has a way to distill a lot of material down to the essential core elements and present same in a fast paced manner. Alan injects humour and his own personal perspective to better relate himself and the material to the audience. I look forward to seeing him on stage again.

The topic you spoke about was, "The Wworld of Social Media and how we can best use it to increase our business". Saying that the session was inspiring, would be an understatement. Our marketing department is made up of a 40+ demographic, who are technically savvy about our product line-up, but woefully ignorant about the opportunites that await us in the world of Social Media. Not only did you give them tremendous knowledge, but you infused in them the excitement of entering into a new medium. They haven't stopped talking about your session, to the point where Linked-In and Facebook are the first words that pop out of their heads when we enter into a discussion about future advertising. Can't thank you enough!
