Speaking Testimonials

On Entrepreneuring

"Hey Joey, what can I say, your reputation precedes you and is overpowered by your presence."
F.H., Los Angeles

"Joey Tamer is one of our industry's most respected thinkers and strategists. When she talks, people listen and take notes."
C.A., Los Angeles

"In last year's e-commerce class [1999], I was a little shocked when guest speaker Joey Tamer announced that the dotcoms would experience tough times in the early half of this year [2000]... this was when dotcom was the hottest topic in town and the market, and how true she was!!"
L.L., Los Angeles

"Joey Tamer is a master communicator."
M.L., Los Angeles

"Your pearls of experience..ring true for every business endeavor."
C.H., Los Angeles

"I got a big charge from your speech last night. I felt like a football player who had just been given the halftime pep/strategy talk from the coach. I was now ready to charge out of the tunnel and level the competition. It really was a great speech."
R.K., Los Angeles

"Someone like you comes along and I am able to refocus on the goals. Your positiveness is infectious. Thanks again for the jolt of reality and the uplift."
C.L., Los Angeles

"You did a GREAT job last night separating fact from hype."
T.L., Los Angeles

"Thank you ... words of inspiration... words to live by... I think I may add this one to my 'Notes to Myself' file."
A.B., Los Angeles

"Keep up what you're doing because you're making a huge difference in people's lives. You did in mine. Thank you for the knowledge you shared and your words of wisdom."
L.M., Los Angeles

"Your presentation was not only seasoned with on time, exciting real world experiences, but it covered important topics on values, relationships, accountability, leadership. Thank you! You are a Powerful Coach."
E.W., Los Angeles

"I'm so glad there are people out there that know that it's not all about money and acquiring things all the time. I was delighted with your perspective on yin and yang. It made your presentation speak to my soul and not my physical self. I really enjoyed this discussion immensely. I also thank you for your speaking efforts that are infusing the necessity of focus and synergy into my generation X."
S.D., Los Angeles

"Joey, I don't really care if you wowed the students, even though I know you did, you wowed me. Where the hell were you when I graduated from Carnegie in 1965?????!!!!!?????"
C.B., Cal Arts, Los Angeles

On Consulting and Service Companies

"Thanks Joey. Again, it was very refreshing to hear about the 'real world' of Consulting. So often I hear only the 'positives' and seldom a reality check on the challenges of being a consultant. I appreciate your honesty and sincerity. It will help me look at this option with my 'eyes open'."
D.D., San Diego

"You have the most amazing life and career experiences and knowledge and felt that the time was much too short! The session was invigorating and I felt a new commitment to making consulting work."
C.P, San Diego

"I thought it was a very good presentation when I heard it. But, when I got your very concise handouts/notes, it reinforced and refreshed my memory, causing me to raise the evaluation to excellent! Good advice from the front lines -- highly relevant and useful. Even though I knew a lot of it, seeing it presented that way helped to cement it in my mind and even look at it from your perspective."
G.M., Los Angeles

"Your presentation to the Institute of Management Consultants on the topic 'Creating the Life and Consulting Practice You Want' was superb. Seldom have I seen so many consultants take so many notes. I personally wrote down 40 practical ideas. Thank you so much for taking time out of your busy practice to share your insights."
H.W., Director, IMC, Los Angeles Chapter

"As co-chair of the IMC group - thank you -- what an educational and enlightening session you held to the 'sold-out' group of consultants from the U.S., New Zealand, England, Canada and Hungary!"
B.M., Los Angeles
