"Great Presentation!"

"Thank you, very useful information"

"We are going back to revamp our web site!"

"Your session at the CECN conference was great."

I attended two seminars put on by Ingvar Grimsmo in ONE day!  He kept my attention while learning specific new details about how to influence others. He kept humor in what could have been "dry stuff." How does a speaker "stand out" in front of others?

Know your subject, then know how to successfully pass it on to others. It was clear to all in attendance that he knew and enjoyed what he was talking about. Ingvar had done the homework for those in attendance.  He shared it verbally, visually on a screen, and then in handouts we could take and use for review. Probably most important in Ingvar's presentations that captured my attention was his true love for what he was sharing. 

The excitement he exuded was contagious. Many of us became infected through his humor and clear explanations. He was willing to discuss areas not on his agenda, knowing it filled a need for one or more of those in his audience. Ingvar is approachable, setting people at ease to ask questions without the fear of being put down or seeming unintelligent. When someone is excited about what they know, you feel it. It makes the learning enjoyable and in some cases, like Ingvar, even entertaining. Christy E. Lieurance

If you are looking for someone to help your business or organization better utilize the internet to market and sell your services or products, Ingvar Grimsmo is your marketing tekkie. Ingvar recently provided attendees at the annual Washington State Chamber of Commerce Executive conference with bottom line how-to's on presenting one's organization in the most attractive light on the "Net" as he was rated tops by the attendees as a presenter. The Washington Chamber of Commerce Executives would recommend Ingvar and his unique style of teaching to your organization. Bob Green, WCCE Administrator

Thank you for a great presentation at yesterday's CSMPS lunch. I have just launched a human resources consulting practice and developing my web-site is a priority for me. Your tips and suggestions have brought me 'about-face' from my original electronic brochure idea to now creating a site that compels my clients to find out more or seek out my services. Audrey Ciccone, Human Perspective Consulting Ltd.

Yesterday Ingvar gave his talk to the CSMPS luncheon. We had a really good turnout for us - 46 people, about 10 more than we usually have - so the topic is obviously popular. Ingvar gave an excellent presentation. He held the audience attention, got lots of laughs and agreement and a healthy smattering of disagreement! His emphasis of website content over pretty time-consuming graphics does not necessarily sit well with designers whose focus can be "me, me" not "you, you"! Of course, that's the whole point. Personally I came away with several great ideas that I will put to use, and I'm sure most everyone else did too. Not too often you can say that about these talks. He spent the time to actually look at some of the member websites and build them into his talk. Very effective. You will enjoy it. Jane McKinney Director, Events - CSMPS

It's obvious your message really hit their mark. You presented in a clear, no-nonsense style that really connected with the audience who, in turn connected with you through their questions.

Thank you so much for speaking at the Small Business Conference. We are very appreciative of your support and involvement with the SBDC and you truly helped make this event a success! We had over 2,000 attendees overall, and the feedback from your seminars was great - good job.

After 14 years in sales, I was able to pick up new ideas and refresh my sales techniques. Taking Ingvar's class brought to my mind that you are never too old to learn and can always improve your skills! Erica Hume, Artwood Manager

FROM Computer Crime SEMINARS IN New York, Oregon and Washington:

I found your class very informative, interesting and educational. I hope that you consider putting on more classes in more detail for us. I want to thank you for your time and experience.

Thanks for providing an interesting and informative class today. Just one of the facts you presented was potentially worth many, many times the cost of the class.

I would like to express my sincere appreciation and gratitude for the class I attended today. I found the entire class to be well worth my time. It was informative, interesting, educational and motivational. I also appreciated your demeanor and style of presentation.

Our association sponsored a series of seminars about the internet. The seminars were very well received and we are making plans to expand this training program.

You presented basic, understandable information in an open lecture/visual aid style allowing for questions and interaction from attendees. Your examples and stories supplemented content and were very interesting. You were extremely easy to listen to.

I enjoyed the Internet class you presented last week at the Portland Police Bureau. It was informative and understandable.

Just a quick note to thank you for the excellent presentation in Albany yesterday. I was very impressed by the content and your expertise in presenting it. It made me more aware of the serious problems faced by law enforcement in this area of technology.
