When Jon is the keynote speaker, he speaks from the heart. He's not a comedy magician who decided to turn "speaker." He's a father, a husband and a guy who's worked in the warehouse, flipped burgers, driven a forklift and sat in the cubicle for years. He made cold calls, dealt with corporate America, made more cold calls, and then was able to manage a national sales team across 52 offices. He has flown in private jets with billionaires, and even had the stereotypical “corner office” with company Mercedes, along with the country club membership.
Jon “Get’s It” and he relates well to both the event planners and audience members.
