A few comments on Ed's Internet marketing presentations...
Dear Conference Organizer, Ed Taylor spoke at the IMC International Internet Marketing conference I produced in Montreal. During Ed's talk, audiences were very attentive, asked lots of questions and took a lot of notes - the common clear signs that the speaker knows his stuff and is hitting the target bang-on. But among more than 30 other excellent speakers Ed stands out far beyond this for two exceptional things. First - of all the speakers this year or any other, Ed has a God-given natural talent for cutting through the clutter and getting to the simple take-home message. Not with fancy presentations but with insight and humor, both of which he has in abundance. (Just the two things every conference needs more of.) This is crucial for this material, which is more often made more complicated by a rush of detail when it's the core take-away facts that are important. Second, after his talk I was inundated with people wanting to hear more from him - more than has ever happened to me before with any other speaker. To accommodate the interest he had sparked, Ed was good enough to agree to sit on two panels that same day for which I was very grateful and so were my attendees. (Ed, I know this letter is intended for someone else but since you're going to read it I want to include this: you are welcome to speak at any future event I produce. Consider this an open invitation - and keep in touch!) If you require further information, please don't hesitate to contact me at robertswick@alphasearch.ca. Best wishes for a successful event, Robert Swick Strategy Internet Marketing AlphaSearch.ca
Comments from CEO members of The Executive Committee (TEC): Ed has the most take-home information of any speaker so far. Ed had an easy, logical presentation without embellishing. It was so effective for me that no suggestions for change are apparent. Ed was very direct and to the point. Ed's presentation was an eye-opener - very valuable information and suggestions. Ed kept my attention and had great content. Ed had a lot of information and great ''take-away'' value. Ed was very articulate, very knowledgeable and easy to understand. He was the best speaker on this topic. Ed's presentation had useful tools. Ed had plain advice, was plainly spoken - very consistent and therefore trustworthy. Ed was very informative. I could have listened much longer - he was very clear. Ed's presentation had more information than I will use for now, but very good as far as putting many things into perspective. Ed was very knowledgeable from a marketing standpoint, which was exactly what my interest was. Ed had clarity, great information and was easy to understand. Ed's information was easy for me to understand, and I have no computer savvy. Possibly, he could explain his top points better so less notes need to be taken. Ed was practical and his presentation was clear. Ed was extremely knowledgeable in his subject matter. Ed was down-to-earth and easy to understand. Easy to apply and targeted to what we need. Ed's presentation was very well done. Ed was very informative regarding the possibilities of marketing products over the internet. Ed offered good information. Ed had good material. I would welcome the idea of upgrading my web site in the next year, and then having a second presentation in another year. Ed's presentation was excellent. Ed was nice, easy, and casual. He had a very thought-provoking presentation. Ed had good delivery, which was easy to understand. His presentation focused on the internet and had good content. Ed had good examples. Ed's presentation was most excellent a lot of very useful information that moved fast. Outstanding presentation - a huge amount of take-home value. Ed was superb! Congratulations to the person who suggested this speaker. I came expecting to be bored and not finding take-home value and was very pleasantly surprised to find Ed's presentation intriguing. Ed had excellent presentation skills and great ideas. Ed was the best speaker (and that is saying a lot) that we've had yet at TEC.

"I wanted to personally thank you for the two outstanding presentations you made to my TEC groups.... They were delighted to have someone finally make sense in how to use the Internet for marketing purposes....they rated you the 'best speaker of the year'."
Bill McCourt
TEC Chairman
