We had about 150 attendees and the reviews of his performance had to be among the best, if not the best I've seen in the last 10 years. His message was powerful and he delivered it in an engaging, interesting and entertaining way.  I can't recommend him highly enough."

"I highly recommend Don with GALT Consulting.  I can honestly say that having Don take a look at our operation is the best thing I have done as VP here at Ozarks Cultured Marble.  I was reluctant to hire an outsider since we believed we knew more about marble than anyone else.  It turned out that was exactly what we needed.  The changes he suggested have saved us thousands of dollars.  I could go on and on about the things he has done for us.  To this day, I still call Don for advice on certain problems that arise.  He is always happy to help and is jsut a very honest and all around great guy to have on our side.  It is a great feeling to have someone like him that cares as much for our company as we do."

Jeremy Prosser - VP Operations

I knew at that moment, I had found a treasure, and a weight was lifted off my shoulders. Creative, talented, practical, ethical, positive. An awesome leader, personally, and in business. He is continuing to help me get my business off the ground, and I am forever grateful. He introduced me to BNI! Now, I want him on MY team. YOU WILL TOO! Thanks, Don!"
