SOURCED FROM THE NATIONAL SPEAKERS ASSOCIATION

I enjoyed your keynote at the Business Leadership Conference. It was interesting how you presented “The Ritz Experience” to guide a business to success. I had no idea that the origin of “the customer is never wrong” could be traced to Cesar Ritz and its variations to so many legendary brands. Thanks for the copy of your book. I’m looking forward to reading it.

It’s impossible for me to write a single line for one of the most impressive business leaders I’ve ever known! He combines real life experiences – wins and recovery for even more wins! Wes delivers everything you ask for and then more. His laughter-filled keynote addresses has a powerful message – meaningful, timely and materials relevant to any audience. He has my complete endorsement!

To Whom it may concern. I teach at the college level and presentation skills are every bit as important as the content to be delivered. When I experience a great public speaker it really grabs my attention. Wes Berry has a very natural way of presenting that he make you feel that he is talking directly to you. His ability to craft a story from his many life’s experiences is a rare gift. To make you understand his trials, share in his triumphs and laugh with his humor is not something that any public speaker can do, and Wes handles this like a pro. I traveled from Canada to hear Wes speak and I would make the trip without hesitation again given the opportunity. Wes is a very entertaining presenter.

Wes Just wanted to drop you a note of appreciation for delivering your Leadership Keynote “Burn the Box” at our annual conference. It was a captivating presentation, and we’d like to have you back for our spring workshop series. Your explanation of Developmental Leadership vs. Attrition Leadership was an eye-opener for many of us. Thanks for keeping us laughing during these challenging times.

Everyone here really enjoyed your Keynote address, especially the bit about Water Hagen making thousand dollar bets with an empty wallet. It’s fascinating how you used friendy wages to motivate staff, so they exceed their expectations.

C.W., FOUNDER, DIGITAL REALITY VERIFIED @GMAIL.COM

It was a pleasure to have you deliver our Keynote address, and it was with satisfaction to take credit for engaging you. Yes, true to your word, our attendees will be talking about both of us for years to come. It was especially nice because we gave your book to all the attendees. And this was the first time we incorporated a book signing into our event. Hope to bring you back for our mid-winter retreat.

Having read “Big Things Have Small Beginnings” as well as listened to Wes’s in person seminar I can say that he has helped myself and my team members to realize that success and dreams do come true. Further, he presents real life experiences that he as well as other successful professionals endured along there journey on their path to success. Wes is able to convey the importance of goal setting, action steps for each goal and how to progress toward ultimate success. Wes helps people develope the winning attitude to sustain our efforts for not only success but dealing with setbacks as well.

M.F., MAJOR ACCOUNTS, NATIONAL OPERATIONS VERIFIED @GMAIL.COM

Wes Berry is an engaging speaker who is not content with merely inspiring an audience. His real-life examples ensure a memorable and actionable experience. In addition to being a raconteur extraordinaire, Wes’s messages deliver a takeaway that can change the way people think, act and live.

E.F., GENERAL COUNSEL AND COO, ACUMAX VERIFIED @HOTMAIL.COM

Your stories had them laughing, heck, almost dying. Most importantly, their takeaway was pure motivation. The kind of motivation that will keep refilling their soul every single day. Even cooler, they now know how to deliver this same type of motivation throughout their organizations. Also, you are right, that little card “Turning Goals into Reality” is already delivering results for me. Thank you!

K.M. VERIFIED @OUTLOOK.COM

Your storytelling was so engaging that you had everyone riveted on you every word. Some of the points you made were elementary, although often overlooked. Your story about the golfer Water Hagen making a $1,000 bet without a dime in his pocket and how that is one way to create motivation. Even a token wager indeed gets my motivational juices moving. I’ll never overlook the incorporation of “skin in the game” again.

“I have known Wes Berry since our early teens. Even then, I could tell that he was someone special. He capably led our fraternity and quickly started overseeing his family’s business ventures. His life experiences have made Wes a brilliant conversationalist and commenter and even hosts his own weekly radio show. He has held memberships in Rotary International, Optimists International, NAACP, Shriners International, Detroit Athletic Club, and Kirk in the Hills Presbyterian Church, where he’s taught Sunday School, ushered, and served on its Board of Trustees. He has also served on the Boards of an Educational Foundation, Community Youth Assistance, and Henry Ford Hospital. Wes currently serves as a Trustee of the Michigan Masonic Charitable Foundation. He also volunteers with a community group that provides wheelchair ramps to those in need. Wes Berry not only “talks the talk,” but he “walks the walk”! He is a man of many unique gifts and talents, and I am proud to call him my friend and brother.”

Wes Berry uses a lifetime of earned business and life knowledge to guide the audience on a fun, witty journey. I highly recommend any speech by Wes Berry.

P.H. VERIFIED @GMAIL.COM

Wes Berry is a man of many talents. I have known Wes for many years, as a great businessman, an author, an active and inspiring Rotarian, as well as an active member of the Optimist Club. Wes has always had a natural and spontaneous way to be humorous, he can light up any room at a moments notice. Sometimes I wonder if he even realizes how witty he is. I have attended presentations by Wes and always admired the way he can make a training session so enjoyable that time races by. I can promise Wes will give your group an inspiring presentation that they will not forget.

Wes, just wanted to say thanks for delivering the address to the Rotary District 6360 Conference. I learned a lot and you gave me some practical advice to apply in many facets of work and life. It’s great when someone can put practical experiences into everyday perspective. I especially enjoyed chatting with you afterward and discussing book promotion and sales, best wishes for continued success. Thanks again for an enlightening and educational experience.

Wes Berry is an amazing inspirational speaker. His talks relate to his own successful personal experience and business practices in both an entertaining and persuasive matter. The events he relates are life changing happenings that motivate his audience to change their own life capabilities. His listeners will take away an unforgettable story that they will want to use and share with others.

I have personally known Wesley for almost 40 years. He is one of the most energetic and motivating business owners that I have had the pleasure of seeing in action. He built a world class ecommerce business focused on satisfying every customer and visitor that came to the site. His understanding of consumer behavior coupled with his marketing prowess was centered on what motivated the consumer to make a purchase decision. In addition to his focus on customers, he also was excellent at delegating and motivating his team of employees to share the vision. If you are looking for an entrepreneurial keynote speaker, Wesley Berry is an obvious choice. He will not disappoint
