Testimonials
Pocket Rocket , ball of energy, willing to try new things, adventurous, intelligent, alive are some of the words that come instantly to my mind after a meeting with Angela.
Camera House group of stores were fortunate to have Angela as a Keynote Speaker to open our AGM. She provided our retail stores with a “never look back and only go forward” attitude and if you believe in yourself and what you wish to achieve then it is you and your staff that will get you there. Angela reminded us that success does not come from a few strokes on a keyboard or Ipad but from a planned business platform of development to fulfilment.
I could only highly recommend Angela to anyone wishing to succeed or anyone who thinks the impossible is impossible; after an hour and half with Angela you will realise that there is never a reason to look back but just a process of improvement to try again.

Dear Angela, I wanted to thank you for presenting at Retail Conference 2011. Your presentation on 'The Business of Social Media (really!)' was inspiring and motivational to our audience and I was thrilled to have you in our program. VIVO Cafe has provided many retailers with proof that even during difficult times, they can be successful and the importance of working all angles to enhance their retail business. You presented with flair and articulation - your message was refreshing.

'Greetings from a chilly Melbourne. This is just a quick thank you for joining us at the Retailers Lunch last week. Your keynote address was inspirational and very entertaining; I received many compliments from our stakeholders. As a small business owner, I appreciate your daily challenges, and the way in which you engaged the audience. Looking forward to meeting you again in the near future.'
'Just a short note to compliment SBV on the Retailers Luncheon today... we had a table full of retailers and the feedback from them all was excellent. The guest speaker was fabulous and very engaging - it was obvious from the reactions of the small business owners we were hosting that they too could relate to Angela's passion and ability to rise to the challenge as as they almost cried and laughed their way through her very professional presentation. Sausages will never be the same to me again.'
Angela received these lovely comments on her presentation to the Retailers Lunch in Melbourne recently
Words cannot express the commitment and giving nature of Angela to others . She is a wonderful example of a small business entrepreneur who can talk on all aspects of small business. Why? Because she has learnt the practical way. Angela has done a number of keynote presentations for our organisation, I stand in awe of Angela and consider it a pleasure to call her my friend.

Our club - Business & Professional Women (BPW) Sydney - was lucky enough to secure Angela Vithoulkas as a speaker at our end-of-year dinner. Angela didn't just have practical, creative ideas and business strategies to share, she also spoke with an enormous amount of energy and humour. Any audience would benefit from spending time with her.

Angela was a keynote speaker at our Annual Coaching Conference this year (2010), alongside Jeff Kennett, RhondalynnKorolak& Noel Posus. She is a fabulous speaker and I would recommend any business who wants to explore the theme of success, to get in touch with her.
She has a great story, speaks from the heart and is someone that the audience can easily relate too. Dynamic and engaging, you can feel the energy rise up from the first moment you contact her. Apparently she makes a great cup of coffee too - but am yet to explore that!
My audience are professional coaches who spend time teaching clients how to achieve success, so it takes a person with huge credibility and expertise to able to hold their attention in the way that Angela did.
More effective than a double shot espresso!

Angela was MC for 'Franchising in Our Community' and her enthusiastic and lively participation helped ensure a successful and enjoyable evening. She took time to get to know the speakers and the audience and make sure her content and introductions were on target for the theme. As a result I sensed that people felt welcomed and connected. Angela kept the atmosphere energised by balancing inspiration with a sense of fun that got people listening and participating in the event.

"Angela's speech was wonderful. She is enthusiastic, passionate, and inspirational. I found the business tips most helpful."
"The speech was very encouraging and it was a life time experience that touched me and challenged me to go forward."
These were the comments received from guests at a Westpac International Women's Day celebration where Angela was a keynote speaker. The event took place in March 2010.
Thank you for being our guest speaker at the Sales and Service Senior Management meeting last month. The team was very impressed with your achievements, your knowledge and the passion you have for sales and service excellence. With VIVO Cafe on the ground floor of our building, it is clearly evident how you focus your staff on customer service excellence,lead by example and how you clearly demonstrate the passion you have for growing your business and brand.
Your presentation was very motivational and it certainly held the attention of my management team. We are very focused on being a Leading Edge Retailer and your presentation gave us good insight into how a very successful entreprenuer can make it happen in good times and bad.

To say Angela is a dynamo is a massive understatement! She is not only dynamic but warm, passionate, inspiring, innovative and brilliant as well. Angela presented at Network Central's Businesswomen's Breakfast Series and held the entire audience in the palm of her hand. She gave many seasoned managers and directors in the audience a huge amount of food for thought and absolutely walks her talk. I highly recommend her as a speaker, management educator and thought leader.
