"It is so nice to have a speakers bureau that I can count on and trust. In the 25+ years that I have been with OHCA, I can not remember a speaker that you recommended who did not perform exactly as you stated. It is certainly reassuring to know that you will be honest, above all else, by letting me know when a speaker may not be appropriate for my group. This honesty in business is rarely found these days"......Kathy Chapman, CMP / OHIO HEALTHCARE ASSN.

"We have been 'booking' our speakers
with SPEAKERS UNLIMITED for over 30 years. They have come through for us every time. We
recommend them, without reservation."
- Mike Cochran, Former Executive Director / OHIO TOWNSHIP ASSOCIATION
