Praise from Clients
I brought Robbie in to speak to an audience that was all CEOs and she did a fantastic job. Months later these executives remember Robbie and are using her material. Bringing Robbie in was one of the best decisions I made.
It was great listening to Robbie in London as a keynote speaker at the International News Media Association’s (INMA) Subscriptions Summit. Amazing clarity with which she spoke and she owned the topic at hand “The Membership Economy”.
Robbie was a big success as the keynote for our Deane Kanaly Lecture Series.
Robbie is the Sun Tzu of membership: she knows all the tactics, is a master of strategy and can infuse your mission with the underpinning philosophy of membership that creates favorable conditions for scaling up. I highly recommend her as a speaker and a consultant.
