  • What Members are Saying

    “Membership with NSA/North Texas is a critical strategic advantage for excellence in this business.”

    Vince Poscente, CSP, CPAE
    Vince Poscente International

    “NSA/North Texas has made a definite difference in how I perceive and run my speaking business. I have gained so much insight from platform skills to marketing. I especially enjoy the great people I meet thru this chapter and the relationships that continue to build. I try never to miss a meeting!”

    Idell Moffett
    PBS Stars

    “Membership in NSA/North Texas has proven to be very important to me both personally and professionally for several reasons. Because professional speaking is a business, allow me to first let member candidates know that DFW is a major center for meetings where organizations need speakers. Many times a meeting planner or organization executive will first check what local talent on the NSA/North Texas website to see who is available, before they pay to fly a speaker into their event here in the Dallas area. I have been contacted by and sold engagements to both meeting planners and organization executives because of my listing within the NSA/North Texas website. If economic rewards are important to a prospective new member, and as a good business person, I hope that they are, then it might be helpful to know that I have received a 17 times return on my membership dues investment!”
    “Next and perhaps the most important benefit of membership is the relationships that you will build. I have received help from many NSA/North Texas members like Zig Ziglar, Ed Foreman, and Joe Charbonneau because I was a fellow member and because I asked them for help.”
    “Both current professional speakers and those who would like to be can and will benefit many times over, in many ways, by joining NSA/North Texas. I encourage anyone who loves to speak to come to a NSA/North Texas meeting and experience excellence in professional speaking services.”

    “I’m getting calls for work through the NSA/North Texas site.”

    Julie Alexander, CSP
    Past President NSA/North Texas

    “My membership in NSA/North Texas has helped me move my speaking career further faster than if I was going it alone. I don’t have to invent fire, it has already been invented and NSA members are delighted to share everything they know with me at the drop of a hat. In addition, I’ve been privileged to be included in mentor groups that also help my growth and improved the quality of the journey. I could not have come nearly as far or as fast without NSA/North Texas.”

    “NSA/North Texas is a living example of bringing to life the concept of ‘continuous improvement.’”

    Al Lucia, CSP
    President
    ADL Associates

    “Meeting other successful speakers and learning about the business of speaking is the greatest value of NSA/North Texas for me. I have met many terrific new people who have been generous in sharing their experiences and wisdom. It takes a bit of time invested to reap the rewards, but isn’t that true of anything worthwhile?”
