As an MC John was extremely professional meeting me before the event to go over the brief and discuss the run of night. As Austin Powers he had the entire group eating out of his hand as soon as he entered the room. This is no mean feet as our group is an extremely diverse one, but his energy level made him irresistible to all who attended – they loved him! He got everyone interacting with each other and got them up and moving. He was brilliant and went well above and beyond what we expected and I'd certainly recommend him to anyone who was wanting an unsurpassed entertainer and MC.—Robert Harris Cafe Franchise NetworkExcellent. John was above expectations, especially due to the timeframe. He listened carefully and responded very well. "Bob the Farmer" was talked about for the whole conference. Set the tone - a lot of fun - and then delivered intensive (great content) workshop.—Wrightson
We included John in a number of roles - as our MC or Conference weaver, as an entertainer, and as a Conference presenter/speaker. John was able to separate the roles and to perform at the highest level for each of them.—First National Real Estate Network
I can honestly say that your "performance" as Prince Charming, our MC for Cholmondeley Children's Home 'Cinderella Ball', far exceeded my expectations !!! You were fantastic, and the feedback from those who attended the ball has been very positive. I will certainly be recommending your services and look forward to working with you
again.—Cholmondeley Children's Home
