"Sales strategies to grow your business is the single biggest challenge for business owners, and Barry Farber’s motivational presentation is full of proven sales techniques, practical advise and simple tips to meet that challenge; and he does it with a sense of humor that keeps the audience engaged and glued to every word. I have used Barry over 20 times, in 13 different cities because the relevancy of his information and the positive feed back I receive, has been overwhelmingly positive, “…Bring Barry back”, “Please present more of the same information…”, “I was able to implement some of Barry’s ideas on my first sales call…” Barry is an entrepreneur who lives what he talks about every day and it’s one of the biggest reasons why business owners respect his advice, and why I will continue to utilize his talents and expertise."

"Barry Farber is one of the most authentic, passionate and action-oriented authors I have ever met---a true original.  His Nightingale-Conant program, State-Of-The-Art Selling is our best-selling Business-to-Consumer program of all time and delivers proven sales strategies that are customer-focused and have been 'battle-tested' in the marketplace--he doesn't just recycle old and tired sales techniques.  Whenever Barry talks.....I listen!"

-Dan Strutzel
VP of Publishing
Nightingale Conant

“Out of 10 outside speakers at our recent conference you were rated #1. Quite an accomplishment considering the outside talent we secured this year. Barry, you had the material but so do a lot of experts. What you possessed that they didn't was three-fold:

* You've Done It - - AND SUCCEEDED! Today's professional wants to know that your advise has been market-tested and passed. You were a credible speaker.

* You Took the Time to Customize the Material The information you requested and the people you interviewed paid off in spades. Our people were able to identify with your techniques. That alone would have made the program superior.

* You Genuinely Care Typically, speakers come in, do their required time and leave. Not you! You spoke with people prior to your workshop and stayed late, long after the seminar ended. The evaluations reflected that.

On behalf of Allied Van Lines and our association, I thank you for a superior job.”
