Emily Leach, founder of the Freelance Conference and the Texas Freelance Association, describes Matthew Pollard’s ability to take command of a stage and engage with each audience member individually, regardless of the size of the crowd. A seasoned speaker herself, Emily came away from Matthew’s presentation inspired and impressed.
Jessica talks about the problems she had in the past finding a speaker who could customize the presentation for the audience. She was tired of canned speeches that had no applicability to her industry. She was thrilled to work with Matthew because of his ability to gear the presentation to her field, and was impressed with his energy, responsiveness, and audience engagement. Also unlike other speakers, Matt made himself available after the presentation in order to speak further with the attendees, instead of rushing off as soon as the talk was over.
In her career in the homebuilding industry, Bethany has been to dozens of conferences, and heard dozens of speakers discuss marketing and sales for builders. But none resonated like Matt — the difference is, he provided information that was actionable and applicable, not only to Bethany, but to all the builders present. Each homebuilding company is unique, with its own niche and its own distinct message; Matthew is able to bring that message out, in this industry and across a range of professional service businesses.

It was great to have a sales and marketing expert, such as yourself, discuss with us the topic of “if sales can be learned.” I also want to show my appreciation for giving out so much critical advice on the importance of learning to sell through steps and how to utilize sales scripting.

I would highly recommend Mathew to anyone looking to improve their sales know how in a business environment.
