Thanks for turning on some light bulbs

Geoff, I didn't get a chance to thank you personally this morning, however I would like to say thank you for turning on a couple of light bulbs this morning. 

As you said, sometimes we need to be reminded of the things we know, and there were a couple of new items for me too.
 
Thanks again for your time and knowledge.

Perfect for me!

Myself and my associate, Elizabeth Schneider attended the Terri Cooper breakfast held last Friday at Mermaid Beach.
 
As this was my introduction to Business Breakfasts, I wanted to say how inspiring I found the experience to be! I felt very lucky to have had yourself and a very relevant topic for my circumstances first up – and I wanted to pass on my thanks to you. I have taken what you were speaking about on board and it all made a lot of sense

Thanks for sharing your wisdom!

Hello Geoff
 
What an amazing time I spent with you this morning (my time) - thank you for your time and expertise.
 
Please find attached "situations" as discussed.
 
I have taken the liberty of also sending you LD offering - it is my company profile which I am in the process of having printed as a brochure - after this mornings meeting I am imagining that you will make some changes to it, for which I will be very grateful.
 
Thank you so much for sharing your wisdom with me.

Trust in Networking!

THANK YOU for the APSS programme you gave us in Singapore.

GREAT info and although I teach trust as key in sales, I'd never applied it to networking and see the error of my ways now.

Love the question, "What can I do for you?" Thank you and God bless you.

How to Build Million Dollar Relationships

Geoff

Thanks you for your brilliant speech at the Asia Professional Speakers group in Singapore.

We learnt a lot about relationships in a very short time. I particularly liked your sharing on the importance of Trust and "Code of Ethics"

I saw you using the principles you shared right after the meeting. When I approached you after the speech to congratulate you and mentioned to you that I will visit Australia soon, you told me "When you are in Australia, let me know. I will see how can I help you"!

Those 5 words...wow..perfect..walking your talk!

A man of integrity!

Geoff Kirkwood is a man of integrity and a Brilliant Business Man. His combined knowledge of building relationships, growing businesses and connecting people is outstanding. Geoff is one of those people with whom you associate with the likes of Richard Branson.

Geoff is a fantastic speaker and shares his knowledge willingly.

I highly recommend getting to know Geoff Kirkwood, and definitely recommend doing business with him also.

My network is stronger with you in it!

I have met Geoff as a International Speaker for the BNI International Networking Week when he came to address us in Johannesburg South Africa.

What struck me about Geoff is his passion for what he does and how much joy he gets from doing what he does so well.

Thank you Geoff, for being in my network and I am sure my network is stronger with a person of your calibre in it.

We enjoyed your words of wisdom!

Thanks for a great presentation this morning.

I particularly enjoyed the way you made our members feel involved while you were speaking.

You hit on some critical topics that will genuinely help them achieve results as individuals.

More importantly for me, you’ve helped strengthen the dynamics between the members, making us a stronger club.

– Martyn Fleming - Director | www.abcbusinessclubs.com.au

Thanks Geoff!

I have received very positive feedback from the staff who in turn received positive feedback from the students in regards to the workshop you facilitated on Tuesday. 

They are looking forward to the next instalment of workshops in Term 3. 

Sometimes our school students don't necessarily respond well to external facilitators or want to participate in group activities - this was not the case on Tuesday and you connected well with the students.

You Helped Me

I had the pleasure of listening to Geoff speak at my local Business Swap Club.

His creative methods of surviving tough economical times have helped me to not only grow my new business but thrive!

Thanks Geoff

I learnt so much!

Geoff, I would like to thank you for the Public Speaking course you ran at our BNI Chapter.

During this time I learnt techniques I can use on a day to day basis as well as personal development that will continue to help me in the future.

I would recommend this course to people wanting more confidence when speaking in public and would like to learn from a relaxed and patient professional.

– David Sargent | www.fastfindfinance.com.au

Just the best!

I have seen and heard many speakers in my life. Some have good content, others have a great speaking style.....few have both.

Geoff is not just a speaker. He is a teacher. His motivational style and energy inspires you to want to become your best. But he doesn't leave you out there just wanting. Geoff then gives you the practical steps on how to make things happen. How to accomplish, succeed and in turn remotivate yourself to continue the process.

If you need a speaker who truly cares about helping people and will energize them, your time and money is well invested with Geoff.

Polished, professional and personable.

Geoff certainly has a gift for speaking - no doubt about that!

But one of the things I like about him is his readiness to share his experience, expertise, and encouragement. He is a great role model for other professional speakers.

Geoff recently interviewed me for some recordings I needed to produce. Everything I gave him to work with was transformed by his ‘midas touch’. Geoff was a pleasure to work with and brought a whole new level of professionalism to the project.

Three words I use to describe him? Polished, professional, and personable.

Thank you for your mentoring and encouragement!

I owe part of my success to Geoff and his encouragement to me when I first got into the speaking industry....Geoff mentored me into understanding my true value for the information I was giving...and with his help I moved from speaking for Free to being Paid for my speaking gigs....and now I am an international speaker and author...my first book sold out www.orangeunderpants.com in Australia and now is an e-book and is being translated into Spanish, Norwegian and now Polish and many more languages to follow....

Thank you Geoff for your mentoring and encouragement to go for it....I am happy to share my network with Geoff anytime...he is a beautiful soul.

He is a big giver and someone you want to have in your networks.
