What Others Are Saying

I have both worked with Tom on the American Airlines business and hired him as a social media consultant. I also saw him speak at Social South, where he presented the results of his highly innovative Mardi Gras Twitter experiment. Not only is Tom an unusually creative business thinker who never fails to be ahead of the curve, he also has an honest charm in his speaking style that puts people very much at ease to soak in what he’s saying. It’s an inspiring combination, and I’d definitely hire him as a keynote speaker. Sue SpaightJigsaw, LLC

Tom is an ideal speaker due to his flexibility in delivery of content. Whether small, educational, and intimate or large and inspirational Tom can bring the goods. My opinion is that Tom is one of the more underrated people in the social space…so get him before everyone else realizes it. It’s easy to write recommendations, but in Tom’s case I’d be happy to go beyond that and speak with you personally if you have any questions about his abilities.

He intrigues his audience; when he speaks to a group of people, each person pays attention because he or she feels as if he is speaking directly to them. He delivers information in a way that people from a variety of professional backgrounds can understand and Tom is inventive when answering questions.

I had the pleasure of working with Tom on new business pitches as well as client projects, and in every case I found him to be highly strategy-driven, with his feet firmly planted in solid research and his mind looking ahead to the next wave of technology and industry trends. I continue to look to Tom for his insights and expertise in the burgeoning social media realm and would recommend him to any organization looking to stay on the cutting edge. Kara SchonbergA.B.

As a keynote speaker, Tom has a way of combining case studies of successful social media campaigns with the hard data behind them to really get to the heart of what makes for a successful digital strategy. He is passionate about sharing his experiences as a business owner, as well as a campaign manager and a family man with his audience and provides real-world examples of how businesses can use social to grow. Most importantly, Tom is accessible both online and off. Post-keynote, he has always been generous with his time in answering questions and helping his audience to apply what they’…Ryan MillerRomanelli Communications

The first time I heard Tom speak publicly was at an engagement at the Ritz Carlton in New Orleans. He took the stage to a standing room only crowd of hundreds of the Who’s Who in the city’s communications and public relations fields. His presentation was on social media and was delivered during a time when this new media was in its infancy, but he was light years ahead of everyone in that room. It was one of the most successful speaking events I’ve attended and to this day, I recall how members of the audience were hanging on every word. Tom has spoken to restaurant members of the Louisi…Wendy WarrenPeter A Mayer Advertising

Tom Martin is an outstanding communicator that distills complex marketing or strategy concepts into actionable, impactful processes. I have personally tasked him with some of the most difficult messaging challenges and each time he has found a solution. An outstanding public speaker, he inspires while educating, coaches while gingerly leading the listener to the “ah Ha” moment. In the role of trusted consultant, Tom brings a team oriented, creative and innovative approach to helping firms lever their existing capabilities and maximize the contributions of the firm’s employees. No one wil…Larry Merington, Vice PresidentStewart Enterprises

I’ve known Tom for a number of years. He has been a speaker to TAAN, and consultant to members. He has consistently delivered more than expected. His knowledge of the business, and insights into the future landscape have been valuable to the members of TAAN. As a speaker, Tom is refreshing, comfortable, professional. His sharing of top-level ideas through examples and cases has thorough knowledge of the profession, and his willingness to share valuable expertise. Plus, Tom is a great guy. I highly recommend you consider him as a speaker and consultant. Peter GerristenGlobal President at TAAN
