Hi Jeff
Thank you for your message and for following my writing. I really appreciated working with you and watching you lead the sales and relationship management teams. Take care.
Remembering how my connections with DC made a life in speaking, sales and a life of success.
I hear so many young folks staggering through what to take, learn and succeed at. For me it began in the 1970’s as a student in the DC classroom. My speaking career rocked on for 40 years. Dale was the springboard. Thank you!
Janie,
Your journey of personal growth is such an inspiration. You’ve had an impact on me and many others. It’s incredible that Dale Carnegie made such a difference for you. Thank you!
Matt, I just finished reading your book for patterns of healthy people. I absolutely loved it. I believe I met you before at one of the Dale Carnegie events. Donna Cookson and I Own the Sacramento franchise. I appreciate your vulnerability In sharing your struggles with anxiety. I too had struggled majority of my adult life in that area. Thank you for writing this book, find tremendous value in the words and techniques that you have provided.
Thomas, thank you for your thoughtful comments and for reading the book. I’m so glad you loved it. Thank you for your vulnerability also. I hope we can connect soon.
Our team in Virginia Beach reached out to Matt for some assistance and advice in helping us grow our market. Matt did not know us and responded back same day and set up a time to have a call. We just had that call today and it was tremendously helpful. We all can see why Matt is where he is with Dale Carnegie! Thank you again for your time Matt.
