Customer Reviews

Kristin Garrett Loudoun County Government (Parks & Recreation)

Wow! Two standing ovations say everything about the powerful message this speaker provided, not to mention his rad guitar skills. The music is the perfect accompaniment to the What If?" point - both effectively grabbing the audience, We will not forget this speaker or his poignant message. Mike was AMAZING! He did an outstanding job, the crowd LOVED him and he was a dream to work with – so easy, so kind. It was the best way to close the conference!!

Jean Capon NRECA

Huge hit. Great feedback on the spot and we are starting to get our surveys back and I peeked at a few and they were overwhelmingly positive. How do we top Mike?

Karen D'Arcy IMCO, Inc.

Mike Rayburn was the most awesome keynote speaker we’ve ever had for our annual conference! He set the perfect tone for kicking off the event - upbeat, entertaining, and had our attendees thinking about endless possibilities throughout the conference. I would highly recommend Mike Rayburn for any conference - especially if you want your attendees to start thinking outside of the box. He’s the best!

Diane Ruggiero CA RMLS

Mike Rayburn was a hit with our audience. Our group of entrepreneurial financial professionals were able to connect to his message of “What If?” as it relates to thinking outside the box and growing their business. Mike’s use of music and comedy to deliver his message is top notch.

Jessica Kilker American Equity Investment Life Insurance Company

The room was fully engaged and enthralled with the presentation. Mike was so gracious to talk to and sign all the those books.

Kathryn Goldstein Securus

We have worked with Mike Rayburn on two separate occasions – and both times Mike delivered! We always look for speakers who motivate and inspire, and Mike’s message of “What If” was spot-on. It’s important to have audiences learn, but also have some fun along the way – and Mike really helped us do that by being thought-provoking and entertaining. I highly recommend Mike to anyone looking for a keynoter who can engage an audience on how to make the impossible, possible.
