    “As one of the attendees put it, Art Holst is the best speaker that we have had to date. On behalf of the Mason Contractors Association of America, I would like to thank you for doing such a fantastic job at our Conference. From the very beginning of your presentation, until the last question was answered you had the members laughing. And that wasn’t easy. You saved the day.”
    Mason Contractors Association of America

    “Art Holst delivered a warm, entertaining message and elicited a tremendous response from an audience accustomed to top notch entertainers. He was the perfect choice!”
    The National Sporting Goods Association

    “As a WWII veteran and a former NFL official, Art Holst was able to appeal to our mostly young to middle-aged membership. His recall of names, dates and places was breathtaking. Using his experiences from his service in WWII and his long career in the NFL, he was able to regale the audience with his real life stories while at the same time keeping track of his main theme – Leadership and Excellence. In fact, his presentation was one of the most entertaining I have heard, and I have been attending association meetings for almost 30 years.”
    Flooring Installation Association of N.A.

    “Art, your unique blend of stories, humor, and business message points were right on target. Very well done! Your energy, enthusiasm, and quick wit come through so well to everyone. Many commented ‘that was the best after dinner speech I ever heard.’”
    Caterpillar, Inc.

    "Art Holst is an outstanding speaker! His mix of inspiration, humor and fun are just what we needed for our National Sales Meeting. I was very impressed with how he tied his message back into our company's strategies. Well done!"

    "Art's humor and the way about him kept the attention of the audience. He was fabulous! We had nothing but positive comments. Some even commented that Art was the best speaker they had ever had."
    Ohio Association of School Business Officials

    "I cannot express how much Art's presentation meant to those in the audience - except to say that everyone has called to thank me for bringing him. As you probably already know, Art is one of the best speakers in the business. His jokes had people rolling in the isles, his message and insight commanded the utmost attention. He was THE BEST speaker I have ever seen!"
    American Century Investments

    “In my 26 years of planning meetings for associations and working with speakers throughout the world, I have yet to meet a speaker that matches your diligence in making sure you get to the event on time and deliver such a timely and warmly received message. While everyone was totally captivated by your football stories, they took away a serious message they can use on a daily basis at work and home.”
    BEMA

    “Art drew on his years of experience as an NFL official to address the issues of ‘Leadership, Teamwork and Success’ with a perfect blend of humor, real-life experiences and the issues facing our company. His presentation addressed the issues, yet could be defined as entertainment in the truest sense of the word.”
    NACD - Paving Products Division

    “Art, an NFL sized THANK YOU for your visit to Frankenmuth and the incredible opportunity to hear you again. While I have not been a Rotarian for over 50 years (like yourself), I have been involved for over 30, and you absolutely were the best speaker we ever had…and we have had some very good ones at that! You are truly an amazing man, with a wonderful gift of communication, and your ability and willingness to transform your experiences into delightfully joyous verbiage is truly a passing performance of the 4 way test. Thanks again!”
