dare to be different - attract, keep and engage more customers more often

  • Why should your ideal customers do business with you? Every day, our clients are looking for new and better reasons to do or continue to do business with us. If we can’t provide them with those reasons; if we aren’t clear on how to create, demonstrate and deliver more value to more clients more often than our competition, those customers WILL go elsewhere. In fact, for some of you, maybe they already have.

    In this dynamic, thought-provoking and content-rich session Toni Newman will challenge you to dare to be different; to defy the status quo; to re-think and re-imagine every aspect of how you do what you do – all while providing you with strategically innovative tools and techniques that have helped both Newman and her clients differentiate themselves from their competition and drive significant growth in their businesses.

    If you have more business than you can handle, no competition to speak of, and a market position that is so secure that you sometimes just get bored with it all, then this program is probably not for you!

Testimonials

We have had sessions with The Disney Institute and Fish! in the past. However, the day we had with Toni Newman was by far our most successful business event to date.

Britanny Morin

Business Advisor

I believe the message and content that you deliver are more relevant and timely today to a business than ever! What you add to the message is an energy level that drives the point home and has the message living on beyond the conference. The most sincere point was the over-the-top positive feedback that you received from our customers in the after-conference satisfaction survey.

Schnier/Gesco Limited Partnership

I have planned many meetings like this and have worked with many speakers and I would have to say that you really are the most prepared speaker I have ever worked with. I think the fact that you took the time to speak with so many participants prior to the event led to a much more personal seminar that got to the heart of the challenges that our General Managers face daily. I think the General Managers have a better understanding of how they really are authors of their own change and that they have to take responsibility for it and thanks to you, I know they now have the tools to get there.

Westmont Hospitality Group

We were thrilled with the passion and energy you brought to the group. Your innate sense of humour and style made the addressing of some sensitive issues a pleasure rather than a task! We were more than pleased with the ultimate result. I can personally say that working with you was one of the most stimulating projects I have been involved with over my many years in retail.

Canadian Tire Dealers’ Association

What separates good speakers from great ones, is their ability to give of themselves to an audience. To weave their message with passion and empathy and I have never witnessed a speaker who has done it more eloquently. My dedicated group of CEOs is not easily impressed, however, the consistent messaging in your presentation –showcased in a variety of ways – helped each member of the audience understand how to make it work for them.

Progress Media Group

Toni, I believe that the message and the content that you deliver are relevant and timely to business more today than ever! What you add to the message is an energy level that drives the point home and has the message live on well beyond the conference. You bring a real passion and excitement to your presentations and workshops, as both are filled with meaningful content. Rest assured that your message is living on and that is the real value of what you bring to any organization.
