    “Kelly is one of the best speakers I have ever hired for the many events I have organized over the years. He is not only extremely knowledgable and highly experienced in fields of leadership, sales, and marketing but he also has a rhetorical gift that he uses with great success. I can warmly recommend him and will most definitely use him for similar assignments in the near future.”

    Mattias Fahlén, CEO & co-founder, expoGlobal24 & expoIT24

    Instead of a traditional factual and product related presentation of new data and sales figures, which we from HQ have done several times at previous internal sales and marketing meetings, this year we decided to engage Kelly to do an inspiring, motivational talk. This really proved to be a good idea and a tremendous success. He prepared himself extremely well and held an very creative, but still highly relevant and inspiring presentation, which appears to be very well remembered by all affiliate representatives I talked to.
