Daniel Cope Ngage

Absolutely fantastic! She is the best speaker we have had for four years; the productivity savings across my team will be immense even if we only implement 10% of what she showed us today. What’s more, Julie’s massive positivity is motivating!

Tracey Cockerton Lincoln West Events

We selected Julie to speak at our National Sales Conference. She delivered humor, energy, and highly practical advice. She engages with the audience and gets them up on their feet and involved. A fantastic speaker you simply must have at your event.

Nicky Applegarth Managing Director

Julie is one of the most engaging speakers I have ever experienced, and I like the way she uses examples that everyone can resonate with and remember.

Owen Napier Computeam

Having seen her speak online, I brought Julie in to speak to our first post-pandemic leadership conference. She was BRILLIANT! The session was every bit as well organized, professional and full of positive energy as I’d hoped. Best of all, my leadership team went away with practical, transferable new techniques that are already helping improve our clients’ experience working with us!

Jonathan Curran Pro-Motivate Speakers Bureau

We were tasked to find a high-energy, leading female speaker. I booked Julie and watched her on the big stage at the 100,000-person Musikmesse event in Frankfurt and to 1,200 entrepreneurs (plus the Greek Prime Minister) at the EU Investment Fund Conference in Athens. Julie was excellent and received incredible feedback. We’ll be sending Julie on the plane to a lot more conferences!

Heather LaDue Franklin Pierce University

Julie presented to my organization today and all I have to say is “Wow!” This was my second time seeing her on separate topics and she was charismatic, endearing, brilliant and insightful. I highly recommend Julie as a speaker to any organization. She made good on her promise of what we would gain from the event. I came away with practical, application “to do’s” that I’m implementing.

Shawnna Suckow, CMP, CSP SpinCon

She held our attention for a half-day session and we didn't want it to end. She's a fantastic speaker, a fun storyteller, and an incredibly smart cookie! I heard participants describe her as 'amazing,' 'clever,' and 'fantastic.' I highly recommend Julie for any organization or audience looking for an injection of motivation, innovation, and laughs. She'll change the way you think.

Courtney Fields, DCMP BBYO

I recently was able to listen to a webinar with Julie and honestly thought I was in person listening to a keynote. She is very energetic and engaging. All the tech tips and tricks she provided were on trend and up to date. She is a speaker I cannot wait to see again!

Shelli Vassar Gilliam, CMP, SEPC MACE Attendee

Julie Holmes is an engaging and inspiring speaker. As the Opening Keynote Speaker for our group of meeting and event professionals, she brought such awesome energy and enthusiasm to the stage first thing in the morning. Julie was dynamite! I enjoyed her energy, storytelling, creativity, and the personal connection she made with the audience during her presentation - which kept our attention.

Beth Helberg National Association of Independent Financial Advisors

Julie was the opening Keynote Speaker at our annual conference and brought a fresh perspective and new ideas to our group! Our participants shared feedback like “High energy, great presentation.” “I enjoyed her insights.” “Enjoyed it and hope that we might have another opportunity to work with her…” “Extremely entertaining and had good ideas!”

Anthony Brown Executive Leaders Network

Wow, Julie owned that stage with her excellent story on customer value. One of the most engaging speakers we have had at the Executive Leaders Network and out C-suite delegation took a lot of value from the session.
