I thought taking on a business coach would be a waste of time and money but once we brought on Eric as our business coach, our company has taken on a concrete direction of growth. Instead of being embarrassed of having a business coach, I am proud to say I have one. (See it on YouTube)
Merging social media with coaching is a wise business decision on their part… The synergy between Eric and Trefor and the energy that they bring will no doubt lead to a big success at Rhapsody, and it will lead to the success of their clients. (See it on YouTube)
I was able to put what I learned into action right away. Now I always start my presentation with an impactful question or statement that really catches people’s attention. This has helped me drive home my main points with the audience, so they leave my presentations remembering more of what I shared. I enjoyed the entire day. From the practical application of the skills to the healthy lunch menu, I can’t say enough about my first experience with a Rhapsody Accelerator.

Energy brings energy, and every time you sit down with somebody who has passion and you have passion as well, you can’t help but absorb that and the only result is a positive influence in your business. When you have people like them working with you, you can only benefit. You can only go forward. You can only expand and do better. (See in on YouTube)
I wanted to send a quick message of gratitude for spending the day with my team to help enhance our public speaking performance. I personally benefited from the session and was able to immediately put your teachings into action. Your preparation for the session was the key to such an engaging day. I had never worked with a trainer that took the time to research our goals and design a program that focused on each attendees personal development.
I’ve never seen anything like this before. I think that they have a huge amount to offer to the marketplace. Business owners can really tap an enormous amount of talent within Rhapsody. There are tremendous resources here and a lot of experience… This is a big deal. It’s really a big deal. (See it on YouTube)
