Testimonials – Speaking

Engaging a high school audience is no easy task. Marc’s energy, stories, and business-in-real-life lessons hooked our young leaders and inspired them to get on track with their businesses. He made meaningful connections between the topic of customer loyalty and the personal experiences of audience members. Our members hung onto his every word! The feedback we received established Marc as one of the premiere presenters of our event.

Marc took the effort to understand who our audience is and then tailor his message about how to use social media to market events. He was pro-active in keeping communication lines open with me to determine the best way to showcase his insightful information. His presentation was energetic, funny, relevant, and informative. Our audience was fully engaged and entertained.

Afterwards, Marc stayed to answer all the audience’s questions and even made a complimentary ebook available to audience members. His can-do attitude comes shining through!

I very much appreciate your contribution and the massive value you added to our event. You were humble, thought provoking, and full of huge positive energy. Everyone loved you. You are a man of integrity, and wisdom. Thank you for being all that you were.

Marc delivered an exceptionally energetic, entertaining, and empowering talk. Marc was the closing speaker of the day and his content and delivery style was just what everyone needed. His stories illustrated important points while keeping the attention of over 500 people. There was laughter, engagement, and perhaps even a few tears. Having Marc as the closing keynote speaker was, in my view, a big contributor to the success of CME Manitoba’s event.

Marc has the unique ability to deliver a powerful message about a technical subject in very simple and entertaining way. This would explain the packed conference room and continued conversation afterwards. Marc clearly brought his “A game” and it was definitely appreciated by everyone who attended.

Marc’s energy was off the charts! He just didn’t talk to the audience, he talked with them. Lots of interaction, stories, and no boring PowerPoint slides. Everyone in the audience was locked on his every word. It was an hour of learning and laughing. I would recommend Marc for any group looking to add a new level of energy and experience to their event.

Marc did a fantastic job of kicking off our event. His energy got our attendees excited and his practical teachings provided measurable value for them. Marc’s content was fresh and relevant to our industry. It was obvious to everyone he did his homework. No surprise he was our top rated speaker of the conference. We look forward to the opportunity to have him back.

Marc’s keynote presentation was a huge success! He used examples of Fortune 500 companies and made them relatable to our attendees. It was clear to everyone that he took the time getting to know the background and makeup of our industry and its people, allowing them to take away key concepts of his presentation. Our attendees were both entertained and informed on ways to differentiate themselves from competitors in a crowded marketplace. His presentation ended our annual event on a high note.

Marc did an awesome job. In fact just his presentation alone justified my trip from Sudbury to Toronto. I learned a lot from his presentation and hope to apply these new skills in my future activities.

Marc opened our annual event with energy, laughter and lots of knowledge. He got our group going right from the start. He was engaging, approachable and made himself available for our breakout sessions. The feedback from our affiliates was tremendously positive. They were entertained, motivated, and educated. Just as we wanted them to be.

Marc captured the attention and affection of our group as soon as he started. It was obvious he had done his research on our industry. This made his presentation both relevant and very entertaining. Marc’s stories and examples made the presentation seem less like a seminar and more like a conversation, with lots of audience interaction. Afterwards, he remained to speak personally to any of the participants who sought his advice. Based on an overwhelming “excellent” rating from all in attendance, it is clear to us that Marc’s participation was a key factor in the success of our event.

Marc’s presentation was exactly what our members wanted. His stories and examples not only entertained, but gave clear steps and practical ideas everyone could take away. Marc engaged the audience, made them laugh, and had them thinking. Best of all, he stuck around to speak to anyone who had questions. A true professional.

Marc was a keynote speaker presenting “More than Friends, take your business beyond social”, at our franchisee convention. His energy held everyone’s attention throughout his presentation. The franchisees found Marc to be interactive, engaging, entertaining, and most importantly, gave practical advice they could understand and plan to use!

One of the best speakers I have ever seen. Marc’s energy was at a 10 from beginning to end. His content was clear, informative and motivated our audience members to take action when it came to growing their own businesses. Any company would do well to have Marc speak at their next event.

Marc’s ability to energize an audience was felt as soon as he hit the stage. His energy, story telling, interaction and clarity helped drive home the key concepts and ideas we had asked him to share with our group of CEO’s of entrepreneurial public companies. The response from the group was overwhelmingly positive; the benefits of his approach were immediately apparent as the group pitched their companies to an audience of brokers and corporate finance professionals. Marc’s presentation was the highlight of the event. I would strongly encourage those looking for a speaker that brings both practical knowledge and positive energy to give Marc serious consideration.

Phenomenally excellent! Marc’s energy brought the room to life. The feedback we received was overwhelming positive. His examples and stories were relevant to both our members and vendors. He was the highest rated closing speakers we’ve had in over 10 years. We hope to get him again next year.

Marc was a welcome addition to our discussion and panel on the customer experience.  He was well informed and had a clear understanding of our goals, and his examples were clear and relevant.  He was personable and his stories were real and heartfelt.  We’ve received great response from our colleagues on what he shared with us.

At this years, GBTA Conference 2016 | Toronto, Marc led an education session that was indeed highly attended by our delegates and exceptionally rated as one of the leading education sessions for our conference. Our team heard many positive accolades from the attendees of his session on how energetic, engaging and valuable his presentation was, exactly the feedback that we want to hear. We were thrilled to be able to include Marc Gordon in our line-up of education session speakers for 2016.

Spellbinding! I have been to events such as CES and seen some of the industry’s biggest icons speak on stage. And I can say, in all honesty, this was by far the best presentation I have ever seen by one of the best speakers I have ever seen. Marc owned his audience from start to finish. His stories of overcoming adversity and to “always get back up” resonated with all of us.

A smart, funny and very entertaining presentation. Marc’s stories and examples took a huge weight off our shoulders by showing us how to focus our social media activities in a way that brings us results we can see and measure. Every business who uses social media needs to see Marc’s presentation.
