Terry, your presentations were amazing! You have been the highest scoring presenter of all time which is really something at one of our conferences. Our team are seasoned conference goers who can be tough to impress and they all loved you! You'll be back next year without a doubt! Thank you.
Just wanted to again say that I thought you gave an outstanding presentation to the Freedom Conference. I had a number of our people telling me you were the best presenter they had ever seen and that they were keen to implement change in their working and personal lives immediately. No doubt the legacy you have will remain with our people for quite some time.
Thank you again for a GREAT morning. To hear others come back to us saying that they are dragging themselves back out of the pit and thanking us for choosing you as our guest speaker is indeed a great reflection on your ability to connect with a crowd, regardless of their work or social background. One of the owners of a franchise rang me on the following Monday to tell me that you touched something in her to such a degree that you have changed her outlook on life. The positive energy that you infused into the crowd was explosive even to the last farewell of the day. Terry was the best speaker we have had. Everyone said she was fantastic!
We were blown away by Terry! One minute we were rolling in the aisles with laughter - the next we were touched by the sheer life experiences and perception used to convey the message. And what a message! A room full of nodding heads - hundreds of 'a-ha' moments. The feedback was all the same: 'Bring Terry back next year.' If you're looking for more than just a motivational speaker, you've found her. Thank you Terry for helping us turn our conference from fabulous to AMAZING!
