"Prof. Solomon ...was able to make us think of new ways to use consumer behavior to frame our own activities....I found his presentation style very engaging. ...He was able to inject humor to maintain our attention yet did not deviate from the basic task at hand that was to educate and provoke thought. I would not hesitate to have Prof. Solomon speak in front of other groups at my company."

David Friedman, V.P. Marketing U.S. Cellular

"[He demonstrated]...an unexpected wit that not only enlivened the presentation, it created an air that his broad research had been scrutinized in the harsh light of reality... the man is a scholar who is current and street-wise - an unbeatable combination for the current market professional."

Joe Barstys, Manager, Customer Satisfact Subaru of America

"I hope you were able to see how many in the audience--and on the dais--were taking notes. We were extrememly delighted with your presentation."
