Jeff's presentation, Why Pay for It When You Can Get It for Free?, was excellent. He presented thought-provoking insights with just the right amount of humor, along with a heavy dose of expertise.

The content that he presented was extremely helpful for me and my new design business, and he presented everything in an engaging and easy to understand presentation. Plus, Jeff has been very accessible with any questions I've had since via linkedin, email and twitter. You can really tell that he enjoys teaching, presenting and sharing the wide range of information that he's an expert in.
