Dear Terry,

I wanted to drop a line ot say how much our chapter enjoyed your technology presentation last week. One comment (from YPO member) was, “This is the best YPO speaker I have heard”. Another from a spouse was: “I did not want to come to this event, but I am glad I did. I’ve learned a lot from Terry”.

You really took a difficult topic and made it quite palatable to YPO spises as well as the members.

On a final note, you helped me deliver a very successful YPO event and for that I thank you. Nothing like having your peers let you know the job was well done. Being in the industry, I am not necessarily easy to please as you could tell during our many e-mails. You exceeded my expectations.

Best regards,

Dear Terry,

Thank you for the terrific presentation to our members during the PIDA management conference in Key Biscayne, FL last week. I had many attendees indicate to me that they took away a lot of good information and ideas on how they can better utilize the Internet in their businesses and personal lives. It was clear that you really knew the topic, and you presented it in a way that was interesting, entertaining and fun.

I will contact you soon to discuss future speaking opportunities. Thanks again for helping to make the PIDA management conference one of our best ever.

Sincerely yours,
Steven T. King, CAE

Dear Mr. Brock,

The committee of the Integrating Distance Leaning Technologies Conference would like to extend our thanks to you for presenting at our conference. Your presentation on the importance of technology in distance learning and in the workplace reinforced many of the issues we were addressing at the conference.

We also appreciate your willingness to speak to us using videoconferencing. Having the presentation using video technology allowed us to show the versatility of the medium to our audience. While the audience varied from technicians to state agency directors, your message on incorporating new technologies into the workplace came across loud and clear. The audience also enjoyed the humorous video segments intermixed with the presentation.

In closing, we appreciate the opportunity to hear your message and hope to work with you again in the future.

Sincerely,

Beth Aper
IDLTC Committee
Department of Central Management Services

Dear Terry,

I wanted to thank you for your recent presentation to our group. Your keynote address was excellent and it was right on target for the theme of our conference, you challenged and inspired our attendees, you showed by example how technology can be used and can be their friend. By using the attendees as part of your presentation (via technology of course), you enforced how the presentation related to the attendees. Your upbeat, dynamic presentation style made it fun to listen and easier to absorb the information.

I was very impressed that you incorporated up to the minute information which was certainly relative to our group. Also, I recently watched part of the videotape of the presentation and found that the strengths of the live program cam through on the video.

Thank you again for making our conference a success!

Dear Mr. Brock,

Thank you for your presentation on “Technology and Your Future”: How to Boost Your Marketing and Office Productivity” at the NEA’s 31st Annual Meeting on April 6, 2000.

Your comments provided an invaluable backdrop to the day’s technology oriented Opening Session. Computer-based technology, particularly concerning the Internet, has become an increasingly important tool to the average contractor competing in an extremely competitive industry. Your presentation helped to “demystify” the coming wave in the way business is conducted in the construction industry.

Thank you for an excellent presentation. We hope to work with you again sometimes in the future.

Very truly yours,
Noel C. Borck
Executive Vie President
National Erectors Association

“Your address was one of the best throughout all these years. Your quick response, appearing as a substitute keynote speaker having been notified just one day before the presentation, reminds me of my “QRF – Quick Response Force when I was in the military. It “WOWed” the audience. Getting the actual attendees involved in a video presentation during your delivery was absolutely astounding. True professionalism. This is a presentation that will remain with those who attended for some time.

As Host, Emcee, and Technology Guru, you really were the glue that held everything together. You truly jumped into this event without ever losing sight of “How can this day help RE/MAX Properties SW, Inc.?” That was evident from the very first time we met to discuss if we were going to have a Technology Day to even after the event with your follow up calls.”
