Speakers

Amy spoke to a room of First Merchants’ clients and business community partners, inspiring us to become Modern Sellers and look at sales through a new lens. She challenged our thinking and gave us relevant tips to apply back to our businesses.

Amy Franko presented at the AAM Conference in Portland, and I have to say, she was spot-on with her discussion on Building Strategic Relationships for Sales Results. Her delivery is such that it makes you feel like you’re talking to a friend, not being lectured. The best part was her final comments on generosity with your time and your network. If someone earlier in my career had not been generous that way, I would not have had the same growth opportunities. Pay it forward!

Susan Bell, Co-Founder and Senior Sales Director, vertical IQ

Wow! Amy Franko delivered an amazing keynote at our Sales Leadership Symposium. Her material resonated with our team. I expect to partner with Amy in the near future to collaborate, create, and plan for future impact on our sales communities.

Thank you again for coming to speak at our Women’s Leadership Summit. The day was a huge success and a lot of that can be attributed to your keynote and workshop. I have been receiving feedback survey results over the past few days, and the feedback on your presentations has been overwhelmingly positive.

Amy is a speaker who delivers insightful and relevant webinars. Recently, she presented on the topic of social capital to the CPCU Society and on insurance training technology trends to the Society of Insurance Trainers and Educators. In both cases, her messages were engaging, on target and provided useful take-aways that can be implemented by the audience. She received high marks from our members, and I highly recommend Amy to other organizations.

Even if you think you are already a skilled networker, Amy Franko will give you quite a bit to think about regarding strategic relationship building and making the most of your networks. Amy will challenge the expert and the novice networker to ask whether you treat relationships with intent and approach social capital with the mindset of a leader. Her suggestions are creative, easy-to-apply and relevant to all generations.

Amy’s Social Capital presentation was exceptional, from the ease with which she immediately commanded the room, to the way she engaged every participant throughout the presentation. She helped me reflect on my personal leadership legacy, and evaluate the manner in which I build relationships and how I should properly leverage them for maximum impact.
