Motivational Speaker

David Newman works with leading organizations
who want to “Get More Done, Make More Money,
and Rediscover the Joy of Business”

Who I Work With

a) Organizations who want to unblock sales performance and unlock leadership success.

b) Authors, speakers, coaches, consultants, and experts who want to add professional speaking as a profitable revenue stream.

Other motivational speaking topics

c) Entrepreneurs and business owners who want to grow their business, boost sales, and solve their marketing challenges once and for all

I currently work 1-on-1 with a very small number of clients (I'm fortunate that my corporate and association speaking and seminar clients keep me quite busy!)

Here's what I'm looking for in the people I consult with privately:

a positive attitude
asks 'what can I do' rather than blaming
grateful for what they have
excited about possibilities
can afford my marketing mentor fees

Who Is David Newman?

I left a string of three fabulous consulting jobs that kept me fat and happy from 1992-2001, including working for one of the top management consulting firms on the East Coast, Towers Perrin in Philadelphia.

Shortly after starting my own professional speaking and seminar firm in January of 2002, other consultants, speakers, and independent professionals started coming to me for marketing advice, and I added 1-on-1 sales strategy and marketing consulting to the mix of services I offered, while still remaining very active with my large corporate and association clients delivering speaking and programs.

With all the experts, gurus, and so-called experts on the net, you're probably trying to work out if I really know what I'm doing. So I'll start with the impressive part - the things that look really good. I've:

Written 8 books, including Relish for Business, Sales Science, and The Manager’s Guide to Using Consultants (HRD Press, 2007)
Personally mentored over 40 business owners, consultants, and speakers
Delivered over 600 presentations to audiences ranging in size from 6 executives in a boardroom to thousands in major convention venues
Worked with 44 of the Fortune 500 organizations
Been featured or quoted in The New York Times, Investors Business Daily, The Philadelphia Inquirer, Selling Power, Sales & Marketing Management, Fast Company, Business 2.0, and Entrepreneur.
Been named a FAST 50 finalist by Fast Company magazine three years running (2002, 2003, 2004), each time ranking in the top 10% of over 1700 entries
Written the marketing column since 2004 for Business2Business magazine, the largest circulation business magazine in Pennsylvania, with an audited subscriber base of 30,000 executives
Worked with Dr. Michael Ray of the Stanford Graduate School of Business as one of 20 consultants worldwide who is certified to deliver the Stanford Creativity in Business MBA course to corporations
Set up a successful online business, which includes over 300 domain names and 50 actively operating websites so I now get paid while I sleep

The Whole Picture

OK, now that I've tooted my own horn - I want you to know something just as important as the above points: I'm not a guru! My life isn't perfect. While I may look it, I don't have it all worked out and I'm in fact very, very human.

One of the reasons I’m so good at sharing sales and leadership strategies and tactics with my speaking audiences and private clients is that I’ve made almost every mistake there is to make – I’ve screwed up and just happened to be lucky enough to learn from it so I share these stories with others in order to focus on what works [since I’ve often been so uncannily good at finding out the things that DON’T work!!]
