“You helped us
develop a clear, easy to implement sales program and marketing
strategy based solidly on client feedback and research rather than
untested, subjective opinions.
"I
have spent 20 years in marketing and advertising as an art director,
designer, and illustrator. But promoting myself has always been a
weak spot for me.
Over the past several years I have made a career
change; moving into fine art.
My objective was to get into a very high end art
gallery with a strong contemporary buyer following. I was shooting
for the "highest rung on the ladder".
After spending the last year creating a new body
of work I knew I would have to do something very different to enter
this crowded field. The average top gallery can receive up to 20 or
more submissions a week from artists.
Then I met Bill Gluth. And of course I stumbled
over spending money. But I got over it. I think that Henry Ford one
time said, "If I had only 10 dollars in my pocket, I would spend 9
on advertising."
Bill helped me outline a powerful approach to
getting my work in the hands of galleries I cared about.
Bill’s approach was cutting edge, very current
regarding how do you get people's attention when they live in a busy
busy world, and actually think they don't need your product.
Bill helped me see my strong points that I
totally overlooked. We formulated a concise plan, and I followed it.
Three weeks have passed and I have my first offer
from a major gallery located in Los Angeles.
Hiring Bill was money very well spent. I have
realized my passion, solidified my message and am taking action that
so far produced fantastic results in an amazingly short time, Hats
off to Bill Gluth."
Everett Davidson, American Surrealist. Painter of the
Shadow Self.
Before I
met Bill, I was having a certain level of success. But in the
area of marketing and sales, I was definitely coasting on repeat
business and word-of-mouth.
Realizing
I had hit a plateau with my business, I brought Bill on-board to
kick things (and more accurately, me) to a higher level.
Through
his guidance and ability to cut through excuses, we rebuilt and
refocused my business. In the process, new opportunities opened
into natural areas that complimented what I was already doing.
One of the
best impacts Bill has had on my business is helping me see the
bigger picture. It's natural when one is in the middle of
running a business to develop some tunnel vision and miss
opportunities that are easily within reach, or be able to spot
flaws in one's approach to things.
Most
important, Bill has become a trusted friend whose advice and
encouragement has been a huge benefit to my business and life.

"Thank you again for
sharing your wisdom and insight with me this morning. It was truly
life changing for me. I guess this is the lesson that I now have to
learn and start living right away.
I already feel at peace. There
are no words that I can express to thank you enough for sharing that
with me and for being you."

“I really
can’t thank you enough for all that you have done for my
business. You were the person I have been looking for since I
started this business.
“When you
first came to see me I didn’t even want to be in business anymore.
I was tired and ready to throw in the towel. You have brought life
back into the business and have given me
valuable, life changing tools to make this business work!
“The greatest
part of all is that it wasn’t that hard to do! I feel like I was a
caterpillar in its cocoon. Now I have begun to transform into a
butterfly.
“These new
wings have given me a new perspective not only in regard to my
business, but with my personal lives as well. I feel like a new
person.
“I am excited
about the changes I have made and I am looking forward to learning
the next step. I also have read your
90-Minute Time Manager e-book and I loved it!
“Instead of
having a New Year’s resolution I decided to give this year my own
personal theme: Design and Do. I am now designing my day in
90-minute blocks and I can’t believe what I am accomplishing. (side
note: I am also designing and decorating our home…..so you see how
the theme covers all).
“I cannot
thank you enough for your insight, time, patience, and guidance.
Without your help I can assure you that I would not be starting the
New Year with this kind of confidence and excitement. Thank you a
million times over!”

"There
are some people who make such a profound impression on you, that it
is a real challenge to come up with the adequate words to describe
the richness, depth and width of their personality and character.
"Bill
Gluth is one of these rare, beautiful and exceptional individuals!
How does one begin to describe Bill? First and foremost he gleams
with passion, authenticity and deeply caring attitude. His humility,
grace and kindness are disarming, and he naturally and effortlessly
weaves these values into a remarkable approach that exemplifies true
professionalism and excellence in business.
"I
cannot say enough good things about Bill, as he has, in a noticeably
short period of time deeply touched and enhanced my life, both, on a
personal and professional level! Thank you Bill for adding so much
value to my professional endeavor, and for being the great
life-enhancer that you are!"
"Bill Gluth is an EXCEPTIONAL business coach! I started my sports
performance business in 2003 but I was floundering until I found
Bill in 2005 and started working with him. He helped me brand my
business, deliver a clear and consistent message to prospects, raise
my rates, put systems into place, and do strategic marketing. I
attribute the success of my business to the original foundation I
laid with Bill in 2005.
"In 2009 when I launched on-line products, I called on Bill to write
my sales pages. He did an amazing job and delivered every single
page either early or on-time. I couldn’t have launched these
products without his excellent writing ability, insight into my
products, and knowledge of internet sales and marketing.
"I’ve just recently started business coaching again with Bill to have
him help me take my business to yet another level. His coaching is
better than ever! Bill has a brilliant gift of intuition combined
with compassion and wisdom. He is guiding me to implement new
marketing strategies, think bigger than I ever have before, all the
while keeping me focused on my passions and talents.
"Bill Gluth delivers! He not only does what he says he’ll do, he
always delivers more. I recommend Bill to anyone who wants to
succeed in their business."
I've
been working with Bill Gluth on finding the right business for me.
By asking very targeted questions, he quickly narrowed my scattered
ideas down to two very workable ones, both of which make full use of
my experience and education. He quickly focused on what my passion
was.
Based on his wealth of knowledge about marketing, particularly
online marketing, he brought me to a business I am confident I can
excel at. Bill's easy, approachable manner and his ability to really
listen are two skills he uses in business coaching. If you're
wondering what you're going to be when you grow up, he's the guy to
help you find out. And it's never too late; I'm 68! Thanks, Bill.
“Bill Gluth is a rockstar. You don't have to talk to him for very
long to pick up on his energy not to mention his track record is
obviously that of a pro. If you're thinking of working with Bill,
you have my recommendation to jump in with both feet you won't
regret it!”

“Thank you so much for your input
on my online seminar sales. Even there was not a lot of time left I
still felt more confident to call people from my own database and
sell them. Now I have 10 participants and two requests for the next
class already.”
“When it comes to
growing my business, Bill Gluth is my secret weapon. Bill has helped
me identify the greatest value my clients receive from me, and then
tells my story in a way that speaks to my prospects in their own
language.
“The results have been amazing. Few people can match Bill’s gift
with words and influence. More importantly, he gets results.”
“I'm
writing this referral letter to let everyone know how much Bill
Gluth has helped me understand and develop business strategies that
have helped grow my business.
“Understanding how to communicate to your customers and potential
customers is very important.
“Understanding that all people take in information differently and
based on your customers, knowing what works is more than half the
battle.
“I highly recommend Bill Gluth. Bill will not only helps develop a
strategy, but will help and encourage you to put it to work.
“What I liked the most is that he succeeds, if and only if you
succeed. Thanks Bill for all of your great help and I wish us both
much success.”
"One
of the greatest benefits to having you help me with my new branding,
logo and website was the expertise you brought to the table.
"As you know, my business helps the real estate
professional keep their name in front of their clients using
promotional products.
"Even though I advise my clients on basic marketing
and branding along with product suggestions, if was very difficult
for me to look as an “outsider” to help establish my own sales
process.
"Writing also does not come quick and easy to me so
having a professional come up with the copy was the best decision
that I ever made.
"The thoroughness in your work and in a very timely matter made my
whole transition quick, painless and very cost efficient.
"Thanks for everything and I look forward to continuing the
NorthStar Identity revolution with additional help in the near
future."

concrete, easy to understand and follow strategies that have

“There have
been paradigm shifts in how we do business, how we manage time, how
to grow our business and how to work more efficiently with clients.
All of these shifts have resulted in working smarter, not harder for

“Thank
you for your assistance and expertise in writing content for my
website. You kept your word regarding the timeline. Very impressed
with your follow through and how responsive and organized you are.
Because of your experience with sales and prospecting, I didn't have
to educate you re: my business -- which was a big plus!”
“Bill has helped me develop a sales process campaign for getting new
prospects.
“I’m very
excited because I’m getting results beyond my expectations! He not
only helped me design the campaign and the process, but Bill has
been instrumental in helping me stay focused on it.
“Without Bill’s
help, I never would have gotten where I am in the process. I also
would not have known what works, so I could repeat it. And by the
way, I probably wouldn’t have gotten my website updated, either, and
it certainly wouldn’t be as strategic as it is. Thank you, Bill!”
I want to take this moment to share
some of the gratitude I feel for everything you’ve done to help me
realize my potential thus far as an entrepreneur.
As usual, everything you do to point
me in the right direction makes all the sense in the world.
I’m launching into the next phase of
my personal and business life, which really seems to be just in
time. I value your opinions, your timely, ‘cut to the chase’
feed-back and understanding. Somehow, you are able to pick up
wherever we left off and see the big picture as if you had been
there all along.
The biggest value for me in any
relationship is to feel a level of respect that allows for truths to
be shared. Since we’re both playing in the business game, it helps
reassure me that I’m not alone and somehow you understand where I’m
coming from. I feel as if your imagination has no limits and that
is both inspiring and reassuring for me.
I appreciate being given a chance to
communicate my feelings and desires when it comes to matters of the
heart openly without feeling judged. I feel as if you see the
diamond in the rough when I share my business ideas. It also helps
me tremendously to know that you see the value in what I’m trying to
manifest.
You’ve shown me that you have a
genuine desire to help me evolve, and most important, you have the
wisdom and capacity to put yourself in my shoes instantly, while
providing insight that leads directly to a positive creative
planning process. Ideas and honest sounding board sessions have
helped me to build what were simply ideas into reality.
Genius is in all of us. Thanks for
helping me shine the light on mine.
Sincerely,
Zoltan Cantillo
Bill,
It has been
such a pleasure to meet you and I only wish it had been sooner!
The endless
extensions of valuable advice and tips you have offered that have
guided me through the start of my business; you have saved me both
time and significant money in helping me eliminate inefficiencies.
I have
interacted with many business professionals, but none such as
yourself - with your dedication to my business practices and life in
general, your expedient replies, excellent problem-solving skills
and your natural determination to expose me to strategic ideas and
new concepts always, that would have most likely taken me many
months or years to figure out.
Your uncanny
vision of what you can offer individuals and businesses perfectly
describes your business.
I feel
confident to stand behind every recommendation I make for you, and
look forward to doing just that!
Best wishes,

“When I began working with Bill I
didn’t know what my expectations were for him. All I knew was that I
needed help growing my business.
“Today, there are several things I have learned, and continue to
learn, from Bill. But one of the greatest values I have gained is
the ability to streamline my thoughts, ideas, concepts, words, and
strategies and put them into a working plan of action.
“This has helped my confidence, my organization and ultimately how I
run my business. I am very grateful for the sincere way that Bill
has guided me through a very scary and unfamiliar time!” Jody Stott, Lil Laptop Learners
"Bill, your the greatest! I love your ability to use just the
right words and pictures to get your point across. And, at times add
a little comedy to an important topic. Information is not only
worthless if not applied, it can be detrimental. Actions = Success.
It seems I fail quite often across the board due to message
delivery, inconsistency, and a lack of endurance. However, you seem
do do it all! With a great change up that like a one two punch takes
the objective."
Albert Morin
"I've been a marketer for many years, and an artist all my life.
Over time, I just couldn't escape the fact that I simply must know
if my art can bring in as much profit as my "inner voice" seemed to
insist, and the fact that my conscience said pointedly "It's the
right and best thing to do" (with my life).
"While I've read volumes of "how-to" business articles, they all
seemed to have more of a bent on how to persuade people to part with
their hard-earned cash. I'm not allergic to profit, nor were those
techniques entirely off-base. But they all seemed to neglect the
pure and simple human factor of just sharing fun moments in life's
journey. They seemed to lack spirit, for want of a better word.
"Bill Gluth's posts, on the other hand, have revealed that he
understands there's more to life than just money and profits.
Respect, patience, and a willingness to listen - to act like a human
being, to discover your true passion - are unsung commodities. And
Bill delivers.
Bill heroically waded through my business plan and got me on track
quickly, yet obviously giving thorough attention to everything I
wrote. His feedback was point by point, making sure he understood me
correctly, helping me adjust my sights in some things, my techniques
in others, but starting, going forward, and ending succinctly with
helping in identifying my greatest passion, focusing on making that
come to life. To my life.
With that focus, I can streamline my productivity and be more
effective. That peace of mind will go a long way in confidence and
momentum, as well. I can see plainly how the course of his guidance
can be applied in a number of other activities, as well.
Thank you, Bill, for helping me to work smarter so there are
automatically more smiles in my life. I'm so glad I "met" someone
who values "truth" and "passion"!
