Yesterday I was speaking at a brilliant event for the Middlesborough Business Forum…in Middlesborough. Now, I know that England is quite a small country, but believe me it’s a heck of a long way from St Albans to Middlesborough – but certainly worth the trip.
Anyway, there were a number of speakers in addition to myself talking at the event, two that really interested me were Liz Jackson the telemarketing business lady who has overcome going blind in her 20′s to to grow a hugely successful business. Her inspirational story has rightly earned her fame, and MBE and a place on ‘Secret Millionaire’. She was fantastic.
But the star of the show for me, and I expect the rest of the audience, was Geoff Ramm. He was fantastic. His ideas on how to differentiate your business through exceptional marketing and customer service were brilliant, and sitting in the audience you could literally see the lightbulbs coming on for people all around you. But the best thing he did was entertain. He was funny, engaging and simply the best speaker I’ve seen for a long time. If you need a speaker for an event on the subject of marketing I can’t imaging that you would be able to find anyone to match him, and if you get the opportunity to see him in action I strongly recommend that you do…you won’t be disappointed.
