I have the utmost pleasure working with Jimmy for over two years here at DMWF (Digital Marketing World Forum) – in-person and virtually. A delightful and charismatic speaker with an abundance of marketing knowledge. His sessions are not only delivered in an easily digestible fashion, so the audience is not overwhelmed, his personality is an infection on the stage! Jimmy is always on hand to lend his support and expertise to enhance our delegates’ experience at our conferences. We love working with Jimmy and having him speak at DMWF events for years to come.

Jimmy is an absolute expert when it comes to developing and implementing digital marketing strategies for producing increased profitability within your business.  He is a powerful speaker who is not only motivational but effectively communicates complex information in an easy to understand way.  I have seen Jimmy address large and small audiences both virtually and in-person – he always delivers dynamic, high-energy performances with extremely valuable content that can be put to use immediately within your organization.  I have learned a lot from him that has benefitted my business significantly and I highly recommend checking Jimmy out if you have the opportunity.  You’ll be glad that you did!

Jimmy is highly engaging, energetic and extremely knowledgeable across a variety of marketing disciplines. He delivers valuable and actionable content, which is exactly what our organization needs to better help our community of under-resourced entrepreneurs. We are immensely appreciative for Jimmy’s support of our organization and the time and expertise he’s contributed to help our small businesses.

Kelly Hunter

Marketing Program Manager, Start Small Think Big, Inc.

Obviously the two major traits found in great speakers are: 1) are they knowledgeable in their chosen subject and 2) are they engaging when they speak. Let’s start with number one. For my digital marketing event, madconNYC, we needed not only great speakers, but experts in a given digital marketing discipline to provide advice and answer the burning questions of our participants. Jimmy is so knowledgeable that not only can he speak intelligently on NUEMROUS marketing topics, but he really is a true “expert” in different disciplines. His advice is proving to be invaluable to our event customers. Now let’s look at number two. Jimmy’s delivery, demeanor, and dynamic personality ensure he can a) make the connection with our audience and b) hold their attention. I know many people who have number one OR number two, but not many that embody both. Jimmy does. And I say this from personal experience having worked directly with him. He’s so good we asked him to be both an Expert AND a thought-leadership speaker! In short, Jimmy is both the bee’s knees AND the cat’s pajamas!

Like so many others, my business was thrown for a loop as a result of our year + of Covid shutdown.  While my income was zilch, I used the time to familiarize myself with the media-based platforms and tools available to me that I had previously never had time to learn.  One business that gave me a giant and sustaining boost was Moving Forward Small Business. 

Working with Jimmy Newson, I learned to use software tools that help me track and improve my businesses’ SEO for starters, and from that point, I realized that I now have the language to approach working with a host of new tools.  Even as I am a novice at all these, my powerful takeaway is that I know what I don’t know and need to know now— I know what to ask for and how to apply that information to improve my business.  Without being conversant with software tools, I would have none of the building blocks I need to approach utilizing other tools that maximize my business efforts and efficiency.

I told my friend today that I feel as if I am growing younger now instead of older, (and I am for sure older!), for I am learning the skills that I thought only those who grew up with technology acumen could master.  It’s an exciting new world of business for me now, for I feel like a player, and in control, not so much at the mercy of fate and luck.

Moving Forward Small Business has been and continues to be my mainstay for learning and expanding.  Something good came out of Covid, I daresay!

It was both informative and inspiring to hear Jimmy share about a few of his lessons and about how he focused himself on his goals to  strategically position himself work on high impact projects with organizations like the SBA. I am confident that if I stay learning and improving, I can achieve the same results also.

I found our first in-person session inspiring. For the first time since the pandemic, I felt that I could find my strength to move forward as an entrepreneur.

A big thank you from the bottom of my heart for reminding me that everything is possible.

One more thing, I saw myself younger in your enthusiasm and your work methods, it was refreshing.
