"Chip is the first speaker we've invited to return and facilitate a team building session for senior managers at our annual company conference. His commitment, energy and enthusiasm are contagious. A key to Chip's ability to get the most out of the session and to engage the team is the importance he places on preparing for the specific audience through numerous conversations with different team members. As a result, his presentations do not appear to be 'off the shelf' but are customized and unique."

"Thank you so very much for your excellent presentation. I am confident your message will help us to the next level of productivity. You seemed to be dialed in to exactly our needs and it really showed. So many of our sales people approached me after the conference and were just amazed at how you were able to reach them at the core of their issues. I have to say, of all the inspirational speakers that we have heard and used, yours was by far the most meaningful and insightful."

The California Lottery has been conducting these types of sales conferences for twenty years and I have never seen a speaker get our group as motivated as you got them. Your presentation was one of the major factors that made our event a huge success!"

Leigh Powell

"Your unique ability to tailor the discussion directly to the audience was one of the keys to your success. They appreciated you took the time to interview several sales consultants before the meeting. Honestly, I don't think anyone else could have made such a big impact, and inspired these people to take action and make a difference."

Craig Questelle

General Zone Manager

Lincoln Mercury

"What a wonderful inspiration you are! When a meeting planner engages a professional public speaker from a video promo tape, they are always a little anxious about the actual presentation (and presenter). I had hoped for you to end our day on an up-beat note. I got my wish granted past my wildest hopes! Your presentation was not only inspired, but INSPIRATIONAL! What a wonderful feeling it must be to know that you have touched people and helped change their lives for the better!"

Victoria Wheeler

Director of Member Services

"The effort that you put forth in preparing for the presentation was evident. Taking your car to a local Meineke shop, talking to a number of Meineke managers, visiting our dealer website, attending several seminars during our conference and spending time with us in advance of your presentation all resulted in a message that was on target, exciting, motivating and relevant.

"Thanks also for your "off line" ideas that will be helpful to us in the future. You hit on all cylinders and your message was matched by your energetic style."

Gene Zhiss

"After your terrific ending to our National Sales Meeting last year, I felt challenged to find a similar finale for this year's event. I looked at many videos and spoke with several nationally known, and very expensive speakers. My conclusion: call you and see if you could design something as exciting but different from you talk last year. Chip, once again you exceeded my expectations. It was incredible! The talk was perfect for our theme and the board break was phenomenal!"

The best reward, however, is the feedback we have received from our Store Managers, and the consensus about your positive impact, your energy, and well-grounded nature is unanimous. Your ability to transfer enthusiasm, while incorporating your message with the vision of our company, really hit home for our management team.

"At our user's conference last week, we contracted Astronaut Buzz Aldrin to speak to our more than 350 financial institution customers. At 6:45 p.m. the night before he was supposed to do our closing session, he had to cancel due to an illness. We jumped online and found Chip. We spoke to him and realized what a good fit he would be for our audience, and one hour later he was on a plane to Atlanta to speak to our customers the following morning at 8:30 a.m. Chip handled the situation very professionally, and was surprisingly able to work in relevant examples and key messages from our company in such a short amount of preparation time. I can't imagine if he had had more than a few hours to prepare!

"Chip did a phenomenal job at filling in some pretty big shoes - Buzz Aldrin. Many of our customers walked out of the room saying, 'You should have planned to have him speak all along. He was great.' They were all smiling and asking for more of his 'Get Switched On' cards to take back to their co-workers. He has a unique approach to energizing your crowd and sending them home (or into additional meetings) very excited about making the information that they learn at your conference work for them - in a balanced approach to life."

Chris Watson

Charles Pug Scoville

"You surpassed all expectations and help lead Terminix to one of the most successful jump starts to the year we have experienced. No speaker has ever spent the time in the field learning our sales structure and business like you did.

"Your (15 presentations) were dynamic, high-energy and the powerful delivery not only motivated our sales professionals, but it empowered them to put to use the valuable information and tools you shared."

Bill Sublette

"You did it! You put the icing on the cake. I have been trying for almost three years to get our management team revved up about customer service. I knew in my heart it was primarily about attitude as much as skill. You made them look at themselves. This is a very effective way to make an investment with a huge payback. You will be hearing from me again!"

Harry Rider III

I have witnessed countless business & motivational speakers over my career of 34 years.  Chip Eichelberger is flat-out top of the charts for his ability to connect and interact with his audience to generate positive change. His prep work and customization before the event with these ELITE award winners was spot on.”

Randy Waddell

"You were the shot in the arm needed to reinvigorate our management staff. It is obvious to me that you know how to please your customer in terms of your talks! We really appreciate the customization of your talks to the Hospital Center and the insights you gave us to energize and motivate employees to take ownership for and energize themselves for personal excellence and peak performance. I found your talk inspiring. Thanks you for two superb talks, fantastic delivery and the tools to hold ourselves accountable."

"I went home very motivated to make changes in my life style but also in the lives of my family. I held a mini get switched on meeting and had the whole family excited about making positive changes in our family life and personal lives. The entire family with the exception of my 5 year old son has joined a gym and work out on a regular basis each week. We all have eliminated junk food, fast food and all around non healthy items. So what have the results been, well I myself have lost over 42 pounds and feel great. My wife Patricia and 13 year old daughter Madeleine have done great also. My 17 year old daughter Megan was already in top notch shape but has participated to support our effort. Madeleine after loosing about 20 pounds during the summer was able to go back to school much more confident in herself and that has made her mother and I very proud.

"Back to myself, while out dealer calling I was embarrassed about how my clothes did not fit, just to damn big. I had to stop at a store while 200 miles away from home and buy a new shirt, pair of pants and a much smaller belt. I walked out of the store a new person, more confident in myself and feeling great. My first stop of the day I walked into the dealership with my head up, confident in myself and not subconscious about the way people viewed me. All my visits since that day have been more productive because I feel better about myself and project that confidence to the individuals that I meet with. So the bottom line is it has been a win win both personally and professionally. So thanks for the kick in the you know what, it's just what I needed."
