I have heard Ant speak on a number of occasions, to a large group at one of our Chamber breakfasts, or smaller groups in seminars and workshops. Whatever the Occasion Ant is able to provide just the right level of information in a way that people find easy to understand and acknowledge. Ant's personable approach makes him an engaging speaker for any size of audience(and i see/hear alot of speakers)and I would have no hesitation in recomending him as a speaker - I will be using him again in fact!

Ant is one of those people that you must get to speak at your event or just get along and hear him speak. If you want to learn how to keep all your customers and build strong loyalty from people connected to your organisation, I suggest you speak to Ant. "You can only build loyalty in your customer if you don't go out to sell to them" (I have this on a Post-It note on my desk from when I heard him speak) - This changed my business radically and I stopped selling and started going out of my way to help people. This transformed my business. So much wisdom from a young guy! (I can say that as I am old enough to be his Mother!)

Ant's passion and ability to communicate concepts in a clear but applicable way makes him one of the best speakers on the subject that I have heard. What's more when he came to the end of the talk - I wanted him to go on, the rest of the day would have been good but sadly it was not to be! Can't wait to hear him again

Ant is passionate about his work, has an enormous depth and volume of knowledge, which he shares in a way that everybody benefits.
He is an inspiration and THE person I turn to if I have any questions involving social media and online marketing.

Ant had fantastic knowledge but more than that he knows how to apply it to every day situations for real businesses. His work is exemplary - he is the Gok Wan of web sites.

We hired Ant as a keynote speaker at a number of Business Link events aimed at business owner/managers. Delegate feedback was always excellent, they found Ant entertaining whilst imparting quite 'intense' information. Delegates would walk away having had the fog that sometimes surrounds social media and e-marketing cleared. I've recently started my own business Countryside Marketing and Ant has been innovative and informative in helping me set-up the website/social media platforms etc. He definitely practices what he preaches!

He's straight to the point, entertaining, very knowledgeable and, for me, cleared most of the mystic around social networking in a very short space of time. Since hearing him speak, he's visited us here and I can say he is a very pleasant person to work with.

Ant provides great clarity when he speaks, turning complex subjects into something that is straightforward and easy to understand. His talks are engaging and leave you with a clear plan of action as to what you need to do next. Add to that the fact that he is a great designer and you'll love his slides as well. Even if you don't want to know about social media, internet marketing, or customer retention, it's well worth going to hear Ant speak so you can discover how to produce great slides that support your talk.
