“Seminars play a key role in developing a pipeline of new business prospects in our industry. Over the last ten years the best attended and highest rated seminars have been those where we invited Mike Muhney to be the guest speaker.
Not only did he draw a core of hard core ACT! Fans to attend but his presentation was insightful, funny and easy to digest for a non-technical person. Armed with practical advice gained from years of real life business experience I would enthusiastically recommend Mike as an ideal speaker on sales, marketing and CRM topics”.

ACT! created a whole new paradigm for those wishing to maintain contact with others, and Mike’ s co-invention and visionary understanding of this spawned a whole industry and helped establish the careers of thousands of salesmen world wide. I can think of few others that can make such a claim.
Mike’s presence, vision and drive were an inspiration to us all and I am sure helped us and many others world wide build their fledgling businesses. Many sales professionals whether they know it or not owe a great deal to Mike for creating ACT!
If you get a chance to hear Mike speak grab it! Mikes electrifyingly, motivational and visionary speeches will leave a lasting impression on you. And you will fully understand why thousands of sales staff world wide truly appreciate the contribution Mike has made to their careers with ACT!, still the worlds favourite software for sales professionals 20 years down the road.

“The training was comprehensive and spectacular. As a seasoned sales/finance professional, I’m always looking for new opportunities to hone my skills. I use Mike’s techniques every day as I prepare for my sales meetings, confront objections and close deals. Before I attended Mike’s class, I viewed myself as a simple, one-dimensional proposal preparer. I now see myself as a problem solver - a credentialed professional with a chance to make a difference at a time that matters most for my clients. Mike gave me a fresh perspective and toolbox full of new tools.”

“Mike has taught me many of the great sales and presentation techniques that I apply in almost every commercial situation. This ranges from presentation techniques to impressing people with interesting quotes. Mike truly knows what it means when there is “no traffic jam on the extra mile”. I’ve witnessed people in a state of amazement when Mike gave his presentations, people sitting at the tip of their chair, afraid they’ll miss the next compelling statement. It’s been a great pleasure working with Mike and if he performs for only 50% of how he’s done it in the past, it’s still worth your investment.”

I heartily endorse those who have recommended you as a speaker. When I last saw you speak it was most impressive in content, style and structure and passionate in delivery.
Mike has a great blend of exceptional knowledge, experience, charm, style, integrity and passion about what he does. When Mike has the floor these attributes wash over the audience as he communicates at a personal level. Mike is a great businessman and communicator and I am proud to consider him a friend.

“For those who haven’t heard Mike speak, if you are involved in any aspect of CRM, or general sales, you really should. It was Mike’s speeches in the early days of ACT! that give me a real understanding, appreciation and passion for CRM (and ACT! in particular). More than twenty years later, I still use quotes from Mike … and do attribute them to him, as shown at the bottom of one of my blog entries.
He is one of the great inspirational speakers who has always given value to those lucky enough to hear him.”
