I produced two sessions with Deb Gabor for her debut at SXSW 2019 and was thoroughly impressed with her every step of the way.  She is a consummate branding professional and brought her larger than life personality and expertise to the stage.  Deb captivated her audiences from the moment she began speaking and proved to be a powerhouse of knowledge and advice.  After both sessions, there was a large crowd of attendees waiting to ask her advice on their businesses and strategies, and we sold out of her books in a few short hours. I look forward to my next opportunity to collaborate with her.

As EO Cleveland Learning Chair, I hired Deb Gabor for an event for CEOs and business leaders, and she totally delivered. I’ve seen and hired countless speakers, her energy is amazing and I dare say off the charts. Her presentation was more than a keynote; it was an interactive masterclass that kept this hard-to-please crowd riveted for a full 90 minutes.

Deb is my go-to branding and marketing guru. I’ve booked her for events and classes of such a wide range and am never disappointed by the strength of content and engaging exercises she’s brought to each one. Her speaking style can’t be described as anything less than captivating. Her energy, raw humor, and dynamic presentations have helped further our business goals and drive our creative programming.

I thought I knew branding and positioning, and I did...but not like Deb Gabor and her team at Sol. They took our existing brand and totally reframed it. It was impressive (and lucrative). If you have the chance to work with her, take it.
