0_yhcbizhvtst_bxhzy7t4inonimt85vhzofn4in4dpyvksyc4ratws9ufdc3x6j3ngi8m2a6hhm0e Brian delivers such a good message with his "plain speak" and "nickel words". He was a big hit at our recent luncheon, with many requests to have him back and/or have him speak more. I highly recommend Brain and his staff as they are all first class and you will not be disappointed.

Most speakers tell you what you "should" do and never share the "how or why." I strive to make my talks, and the concepts I share, relatable and transferable to their business and their lives. The most important thing for me is to come across as authentic and personal. I want people to have their minds open and be ready to learn. We have an 80% repeat rate for these reasons. I deliver results. Brian Parsley

0_i3frdow8ge2h4v4h5q97dw7jxwowz9whwh17dwwj8uombtyebfcpbdj1lfenraexogla6acvduoz My friendship with Brian started out as a working relationship around 2005. I hired him as a speaker on behalf of Bank of American for a divisional sales meeting we hosted for our central division. Fortunately for me I found Brian Parsley and the rest is success history. Of all the feedback we received from meeting participants he was by far and away in a class of his own and the most talked about part of our meeting months after. I've had exposure to many public speakers and trainers over the course of my 25 year career. I believe you get out of your career what you put into it and I've made a substantial investment over the years. Brian is the most passionate, funny and engaging speaker I've seen and/or worked with. It doesn't matter if you are engaging associates at the lowest levels of your organization, or senior level leadership, he'll tailor a dynamic presentation to fit your needs. I've also gotten to know Brian at a personal level. I am fortunate to call him and his wife Jennifer friends having spent time with them in Jamaica. He lives by the principles he teaches others. Lastly, I've read and used the principles in his book "inspHIREd". It's a book that I've bought numerous copies and given them as gifts to other leaders and hiring managers I've worked with. Simple principles that after reading will have you saying to yourself "why didn't I think of that"! He articulates his principles in a very human way. If your company is looking for a dynamic speaker for your next business meeting why not look to one of the most dynamic speakers in the business. Plus he's just a great guy to boot.

Picture?type=square I was so apprehensive going into the Brian Parsley session, fearing it was going to be another mind numbing presentation of sales jargon and how to make a cold call. I left the talk and could not stop talking to people about how excited I was about my new venture. Only a week ago I was in a state, and doubting whether I had made the right decision moving from a guaranteed monthly salary to sales and 100% commission. Brian made me realise that I do have what it takes, and that by slightly adjusting my thinking and my approach to clients I can do ANYTHING.

Thumb We hired Brian Parsley to train at our annual sales training and he was a huge success. Brian spoke in eight training sessions over a two day period and every single one was a hit with our sales force. Brian took the time to work with us to understand the messaging we were looking for and developed an extremely tailored presentation. Our event was comprised of several different training sessions and the post event survey told us what we expected; Brian’s session was voted number one by our sales force. Brian's has a unique ability to impart a message through lively and humorous stories. His engaging style kept the audience captivated from start to finish and I had countless people come up to me during the event to tell me how much they enjoyed and appreciated Brian’s session. We are thankful that Brain was able to participate in our event and we continue to look for ways to utilize him and the entire WeSkill team in the future.

When we met you, you displayed an innate ability to connect with everyone on some level. Your presentation was relevant, appropriate, humorous but germane to our industry. We have had nothing but positive feedback regarding your keynote. Simply put, you made us look good. Warmest thanks to you and your staff for being so easy to do business with. I hope we have another opportunity to work together in the future.

Picture?type=square I cannot begin to articulate the impact Brian can have on your life once you have been to one of his events! It was the most engaging, enjoyable function I have ever attended! Over a year later we still speak about how captivating his presentation was! Would recommend him anytime!

Picture?type=square I suppose being the largest Chemical Company in the world and the oldest company in the DOWs stock Exchange we are a bit narcissistic and rarely would even consider picking an outside motivational speaker. In my 26 year career with DuPont i don't recall ever having a meeting that had so much positive energy. No doubt it was highlighted by the inspirational and humorous show Brian put on for the entire nationwide team. You know a speaker is good when the meeting is and everyone rushing back to their rooms stuffed on an elevator is smiling and talking about the motivational speaker. We are the biggest critics in the world and anyone who can survive an outing with DuPont is a winner. Brian did more than survive he won the hearts and minds and he found many a faithful follower. Thanks and God Bless my friend from all of DuPont Crop Protection

Picture?type=square Listening to Brian reels you back into the "basics" of the selling process. Participating in his training is the equivalent to going to the driving range for sales. Whether somebody is new to sales or has many years of experience , both have to understand that "selling" is easy....understanding and repeating the process is the challenge.....welcome to "Brian's Drivng Range"

Picture?type=square He made me realize the true diffrence between sayin you want something and being driven to get what you want. Example; The individuals at the "robots" who daily ask for food at each and every car that stops.

Picture?type=square This was the first time I had heard Brian, but I hope it won't be the last! He spoke at our Pure Romance 2011 National Training, and connected with all of us in one way or another, those that I talked to about it had immense praise for him and several told me beforehand what an amazing speaker he was. He made us laugh at the same time we were learning, which is the only way TO learn. I look forward to hearing him again, and went so far as to buy his CD, which is NOT something I normally do after hearing speakers.

Picture?type=square Brian as such a way with words, how he engages his audience, and how he can make one see their own potential whether it be in business or in their own personal life. I look forward to the next time I can see him again.

Picture?type=square I had the opportunity to first hear Brian Parsley at the AAF District 3 Leadership Conference in Charlotte, NC. I was so impressed by the way he engaged the audience in his discussion and the pertinent points he brought home about leadership. I was beginning to plan for a health care marketing conference and I made sure that I met him before he left at the end of the presentation to inquire about his availability. Brian received some of the highest ratings our organization has received after his presentation to the health care marketing group. He does his homework on the group to which he is presenting. Every head was nodding in agreement with him on each point he made - they group didn't mind that his presentation was running long - they said 'keep going' even though it was the last session of the conference. I would recommend Brian to any organization looking to motivate their staff, their members, etc.

Picture?type=square I love Brian! He always puts things into perspective. I love how he shows what you are doing, then shows another way that can totally change everything. Just like at the last event, he writes the same thing with different words, and it all comes together better.

Picture?type=square I've heard Brian Parsley speak on several occasions now and I always look forward to what else he has for me! He has a unique way of finding very basic, simplistic ideas to implement and I always have a "lightbulb" moment while hearing him speak. DUH! Why HAVEN'T I been doing this? He's very entertaining at all times... on and off the stage. He's no longer just a speaker at our Pure Romance Events, but he has become part of our family!

Picture?type=square Brian's energy and common sense talk is encouraging and realistic while holding you accountable that you are able and can reach your goals. I really enjoyed his message, his humor and down-to-earth personality. I was able to relate, stay focused, understand and found it possible to implement into my life which I think is exactly what each speaker should do to be effective!
