Fee Range: $4,000 - $9,500
Speaker's Home Base: CA

Colette Carlson, M.A., has delivered inspirational programs within North America on communication, balance, sales and negotiation and to audiences as far away as Cape Town, South Africa. Whether she's opening for Suze Orman in a sold-out crowd of 3500 women or sharing strategies in house at Fortune 100 companies to include Microsoft, Boeing, PepsiCo, Cisco and ExxonMobil, Colette brings her cutting-edge content, charismatic delivery and incredible sense of humor to every program to help others increase their power, influence and effectiveness in both their professional and personal lives.

After applying the strategies she now teaches, Colette found the courage to leave the safety net of a monthly paycheck as a top-notch administrative assistant and step out into the realm of a bold, commission-only sales livelihood. Working for sales legend Tom Hopkins, she quickly ascended to become the #1 sales producer. Her high-flying success led to an opportunity to join sales guru Brian Tracy’s international organization. Mastering these sales strategies led her to become the national sales trainer for US West.

Today, Colette brings every lesson, module, technique and 20-years of real-life experience, including a Masters in Human Behavior, to her role as founder of Colette Carlson Communications. She is the author of the soon-to-be-released book, Liar, Liar Skirts On Fire and a contributing author, along with Deepak Chopra, in the book, Conversations on Success.

  Her monthly column, “Tactfully Speaking” is featured in the National Institute of Business Management’s hard-copy publication, in addition to her professional advice column, “Ask Colette.” As a Show Host, her program, Communicate with Confidence, is presented at The Women’s Information Network. Colette was recently featured on The Success Training Network’s “Made for Success” series, and has been interviewed on numerous national radio shows for her expertise. She is also featured in two motivational movies, “Pass It ON!,” and "Riches: The 7 Secrets to Wealth." She has recently appeared in the May, 2009 issue of Success, in addition to Working Mother and Personal Development Magazines.

Today, as a woman business owner, mother of two teenage daughters, and someone who has managed to maintain a 50 lb. weight loss for years, Colette recognizes that everyday is the perfect day to laugh out loud, get real and speak your truth to achieve outrageous results.

Talking from the heart of her own struggle with self-acceptance, Colette shares how she literally starved her emotions, but fed her hunger with countless calories leading to a 50-pound weight gain.
