Rod Harter - Speaker/Author/ Marketing Consultant Motivational Speaker from Daytona Beach, FL

When you book me, you'll get a friendly, humorous, personable, engaging, motivational speaker who has both — Corporate and small business experience. As your speaker, you'll gain from 25 years of advertising and marketing experience with Delta Air Lines, and 20+ years of as an entrepreneur and business owner. I originally started my business as a freelance direct-response marketing copywriter. Today, my marketing and consulting services are used by more than 75 different niches, businesses and industries across America. My podcast, "Marketing You Can Do Right Now," is listened to by thousands of business owners and entrepreneurs every day. Consumers make their buying decisions based on emotion. It's the driving force that compels people to "take action." Effective small business marketing creates rapport, trust, and emotion. Less sales, more "trust-based" relationship building. Most small businesses don't have a clue how to market their goods and services. They look around at what their competitors are doing, and simply copy them. Those tired antiquated "selling" methods no longer work. The sooner one can go from being a "sales pest" to a "welcomed guest," is the moment their audience begins to pay attention to them. That's when you'll stand out head and shoulders above your competition.
