“If you think being in the ‘Shark Tank’ would be tough, try getting laughs from a business audience with really high expectations.  I give almost 100 speeches a year–and thanks to David Glickman, I’m getting great laughs at each one! He has become my ‘go to’ guy for humor!!”

“There’s one simple reason I’ve worked with David Glickman for years. He delivers. Time and time again. Whenever I need humor added to one of my speeches or videos, I can always count on David to craft something that is both funny and is written in my voice.”

I believe the TV networks keep inviting me back because I’m funny. What they don’t know (but I’m painfully aware of) is that I’m funny because of David Glickman.

David is the comedic wind beneath my wings, consistently arming me with quips and one-liners that are timely, relevant, and oh so funny. David also encourages me to push my comfort zone with sight gags and physical humor that bring so much unexpected depth to my on-air personality.

“David brought ‘good things’ to my introduction….I have used it for the past 2 years with over 200 audiences…they always laugh at exactly the same spot, they always smile at that ‘other’ spot, and they always warmly receive such a clever guy like me…clever because I know (and hire) David!!”

“David, Thanks for the hilarious ideas and input you gave me for my book and keynote speech. You helped me come up with things I would have never thought of on my own. My publisher loves ‘em, my audiences love ‘em, and I love ‘em! Most people have two funny bones—- you have 206! (That’s every bone in your body)”

“I am funny – but Glickman is hilarious. It takes a humorist to know the really talented people in the business – at not only writing great humor but being able to teach others how to deliver it with the timing of a Jerry Seinfeld. When I need a line – he delivers pure laughs.

A picture is worth a 1,000 words but a great laugh is priceless – or available at a nominal fee from great teachers of humor. Glickman is the best in the business for helping others see funny, be funny and deliver the laughs.”

“If you’re on the fence whether or not to hire David Glickman to punch up your speech, presentation, keynote address, whatever — get off the fence, you look silly up there! David is worth his weight in gold.

I had a darned good speech, and David turned it into an incredible speech. I even won a speech contest because the humor I included in an otherwise serious topic pushed it past my competition and gave me the win. Do you want a winning speech? Don’t wait. Hire David today! I’m honored to admit, I’m a client for life.”

“David is a master in pumping up humor in any presentation. Having been summoned to emcee a high-profile event in my community, I immediately went to the one source who I knew would make sure this was a success. And David delivered! Not only lines that got them all laughing, but the coaching of how an emcee should perform and his ability to customize the advice to my personality. The evening was a great success and I owe a lot of it to David.”

“When I first started working with David six years ago, something unexpected happened. He made my presentation so funny I was startled by the reaction of my audience! I needed to use that humor better. Now working with David is not an event, but a process. We combine his skills for humor with my knack for content to create presentations that are more interesting and memorable, and therefore, more effective.”

“I worked with David for many years in Funnier Speeches and was amazed at how fast and funny he could write. Even now, I still go to David every time I’m looking for that perfect funny line.”

“Although I’m a CSP and can have fun with an audience, I’ve never done humor. Too afraid to even try. So when faced with a difficult booking that really required some levity, I immediately called the only person I know that can fix the ‘no humor’ speaker – David Glickman.

The results were amazing. He helped me develop funny content, helped me prepare how to deliver it, and most importantly he helped me feel confident that I could be funny. With funny material and a powerful way of delivering it, I was able to comfortably deliver humor for the first time in my life.”

 

Randy Keirn, CSP

“I was stuck making my opening story work. After receiving David’s input it works great. David’s keen comic eye saw clearly where my opening needed help and gave the story the humor help it needed, but was sensitive to my need to keep it my authentic story. David is a true pro, and I highly recommend him to anyone needing to add humor.”

 

John Wagner

“David Glickman thinks out of the box, carefully considers the points you make, and skillfully develops humor that works around your points. I recommend him enthusiastically!”

“Last night was one of the highlights of my life. The speech went better than I could have imagined. To a dull subject you give life. You made a humble man a hero. I can’t thank you enough.”
