What Customers Are Saying...

Thank you for the talks/material I purchased. I'm enjoying them and looking forward to receiving the DVD. You obviously know your content. Loved the 'Frippicism' of 'Words represent your intellect. Sound, gesture and movement represent your feelings.' Brilliant, why didn't I think of that? PS. I must tell my wife you're related to 'rock royalty'!

I have started to listen to several of your CDs; they are filled with so much useful information and knowledge. I am very impressed and happy with my purchase. Thank you so much for your prompt attention and responses.

Based on investing in your materials I must say I admire you, your quick wit, and your overall degree of public speaking proficiency. Thank you for sharing the benefit of your experience with me...and I look forward to personally attending one of your public speaking events in the near future.

– Ron T. Chambers

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

I have never been a public speaker. However, last year I decided that I wanted to pursue a career in professional speaking. With my background and life history, I felt I had a story to tell and I sought to learn how to do it properly.

I didn't know where. My Internet search on professional speaking and came across your website. Once there, I read everything you provided free! Naturally, I was impressed enough and I ordered almost everything you have created.

For the past 10 months I did nothing but watch your videos, listen to your tapes and read your material over and over so I knew it like the back of my hand. I finally decided to join a Toastmasters group.

This past Friday I gave my very first speech ever. My Toastmasters 4 - 6 minute 'Ice Breaker' which I titled 'More Than A Misfit,' based on some childhood obstacles that I overcame. For this speech I used your speech outline, your 'I - YOU' ratio, and your Hollywood techniques.

When I finished, I received a standing ovation, had people in tears, and received evaluations that stated my speech was better than many speeches they hear at contests.

I thank you for helping me pull it all together and getting my future career in professional speaking started off on the right foot. You are awesome!!!

I am bowled over by the extraordinarily high level of professionalism, wisdom, and deeply-felt enthusiasm that all of your programs and interviews contain. No doubt, I will be gaining even more insights from them with each play. The fact that you so generously added bonus items has not only richly augmented my "Fripp Gallery" of materials, but has also provided me with an object lesson of outstanding customer service. Great job!

When I bought Patricia Fripp's Awesome Storytelling I was a bit reluctant. How was this program going to make me better at telling stories in one week. I had the biggest presentation in my life coming up and I was hoping for a minor miracle. I listened to the tapes the first time and got several unique ideas, then I called several friends as the tapes suggested to gather additional ideas and identify the humor. By the time I listened to Awesome Storytelling the third time, I had my signature story that was unique and something that fit the occasion. I had spent several months trying but in two short days I had something I could be proud of and that connected with my audience. These three are great. I would recommend this program to anyone delivering presentations.

I purchased your How to Build a Profitable Speaking and Consulting Business CD/DVD. Shortly after I got a call from a potential client and implemented your recommendations, especially the part on breaking down your offerings so that you can build value and get paid more. The results…My largest payday to date and I left the client two hours ago and they were tickled with the presentation, and this is the best part…They want more! I feel blessed to have come into contact with you. Here’s the scary part, I still think that I have room to become better at your processes so that I receive even higher fees! I can’t wait for your TeleClass! Who knows what I’ll pick-up from you then!

The Gift of Laughter is a KNOCKOUT, HOME RUN, FIRST RATE production. Thanks for creating it, Patricia and Larry.

The ideas will be a positive influence on my speaking, but more importantly the "gestalt" of it all will make my life better. I have listened to the tapes once, and will start round two today. I am struck by the sense of immediacy and intimacy that you and Fripp captured, warm and funny, personal and vulnerable, insightful and candid. What a remarkably inspired piece of work from its original inception as an idea within you to the contemporary extrapolation.

I loved having you in my car and in my living room sharing ideas about a generation of comedians that I remember very well. You are welcome anytime.

With admiration and appreciation, 

– Steve Wilson, The Cheerman of The Bored™

What an awesome job you and Larry Wilde did with The Gift of Laughter album. Those recordings and the way that the two of you presented the material is not just a 'gift,' it should be considered a 'national treasure to everyone interested in humor and speaking.' Thanks for an incredible gift of laughter preserved for all of us. Please pass on my sincere and heartfelt thanks to Mr. Wilde.

I am very well-pleased with your book, Get What You Want. It is a positive magnet that keeps pulling me to read and ABSORB the messages, advice, and will power that it breathes.

– Margaret Boyd Owens 

Just wanted to say ...your book, Get What You Want is great! I was given a copy by a friend. As a AVON leadership representatives I am always reading motivational books to loan to my team. Yours will be the next book they ALL need to read. Your Frippicisms are classic. Each one makes you stop and think. Again...GREAT BOOK!
