| “Nido was a smashing success at our sales conference. One attendee told me he has never felt such a full range of emotions while listening to a speaker. Another told me, ‘Nido is the best we've ever had.’ Several attendees asked how we found him. My spouse became so interested in my description of Nido's presentation that she is recommending that her nephew in North Carolina check out High Point University. I appreciated Nido staying on through our business session and coming "backstage" to greet our business directors.” Sales Promotions Manager, Pioneer Hi-Bred International, Inc. |

| “THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! They/we LOVED your presentation. Really hit them between the eyes. Sometimes CEOs get jaded, but you spoke directly to their nature, and they were captivated. And it was a pleasure for me to meet you personally after hearing about you for three years. Everything they said was true - and good, by the way!” Council of Tampa Bay, Inc. |
|
| "In the past four years it has been my job to find the guest speaker and I take it very seriously. The speaker must be funny, but not a comedian, he must be entertaining, but not an actor, and above all, the speaker's message must apply to everyone. I know our sales people will think differently about people in jeans and sneakers. They will also be cognizant of positioning and never afraid of saying, "They come in a set." Our leaders will be keenly aware of the difference between education and training, and everyone will remember your common sense approach to life's challenges. I even had an employee ask for your address in order to write you. That, in 19 years is a first." TASCA Lincoln-Mercury, Inc. |

|
| Nido: Thank you for your kind words. I cannot begin to tell you what a tremendous impact your portion of the convention had on everyone. If I had to target one area that I personally benefitted from the most, it would have to be the time listening to the wisdom that you had to share with all of us. I am anxious to get into some of the materials that you have developed. Do you get to Dallas at all? I would like very much to have the opportunity to talk to you about other ways that we might be able to utilize your services. We have a family home in Highlands. We will be there for a brief trip in July. Perhaps we could get to Highpoint to meet with you. Thank you again. Snelling Professional Services, LLC |

| “We were late in booking Nido which made it difficult to arrange a pre-event call and we had to send our company plane to pick him up, in order for him to even be at our event....and if we had only known what an amazing speaker he was, we would have bent over farther! He was easily rated the best speaker at our meeting…and that's after hearing him on the first night when lots of folks were jet-lagged and he spoke after dinner!! We could not have been happier or more impressed. Truly an amazing human being. I hope we can work with him again one day. Thank you on behalf of our senior leadership group.” O-I |

| “I wanted to thank you for the outstanding presentation you gave to our group last week in Atlanta, Georgia. Your message was very inspiring, entertaining and very motivational.

Thank you again for sharing your experience and insights with our customers and employees.” Linc Network |

The general consensus (hands down) was his fee was money well spent! Thank you for helping us to have a successful event!” Better Business Bureau of Northwest North Carolina |
|
| "The business of hiring speakers and having their contributions further the objectives of a given meeting is often 'hit or miss' in spite of advance planning and effort. However, Nido has been 100% reliable. His remarks have been perfectly tailored to our audiences and have hit the mark with a direct bull’s eye every time!" Growmark Corporation |

His message is inspiring and universal, and is delivered with polish, passion and humor.

Our large audience is not easily impressed, but I can honestly say that Nido walked away with 600 new friends." Sperry Van Ness Commercial Real Estate |

We just do not know what we can and what we have to do to meet or hopefully exceed our members’ expectations for next year. You need to let your clients know they will have a hard time getting a better presenter than Nido. We need to start looking now for next year as I am very concerned with this challenge. Thanks for all that you do for our organization.” TAG National |

Team members commented that Nido was the best speaker we have ever had. He did a fantastic job in personalizing his presentation as if he prepared it specifically for Benco. The standing ovation says it all.” Benco Dental |
