“Philippe's presentation to the American Society for Quality in San Diego on getting the most out of LinkedIN was well attended (~70 people) and well received. He has a unique way of reaching the audience that made everyone relaxed yet kept everyone engaged at the same time. I also found him to be very knowledgable in the subject matter and learned a lot from him both during the presentation and afterward with a group of people that remained to discuss the subject. I enjoyed his presentation and look forward to hearing him again in the future
Kim Niles, ASQ San Diego Chapter

“Philippe was kind enough to provide a short seminar to the American Society for Quality (ASQ) San Diego Chapter for their February 2010 general membership meeting. The topic was regarding the "Secrets In and Out of the LinkedIn system". Philippe has highly developed skills in using the LinkedIn system and has also proven himself invaluable in the training of LinkedIn users. I must say that our members of the ASQ San Diego have had nothing but exceptionally praises for his presentation.

"Thanks for all of your hard work with the SEAL mask. I constantly hear your name at various events I cover and all are positive remarks. Obviously you made great strides in bringing the product to market and your work is still paying off."
Troy Hershner, Representative-Aqualung America/US Diver

Aquasphere experienced tremendous growth with you at the helm......You provided leads to the Reps, and sought out business in all directions. You thought "outside the box"....but that is no longer happening at Aquasphere "you did more for sales, in my opinion, than anyone has since you left".
Gene Sullivan, Independent Representative-Aqualung America/US Diver

I recall enjoying our relationship most during your time there. I think your name is the only one I can recall off the top of my head for Aqualung. It was a very exciting time with the introduction of the new swimming goggles. I think we just ran with the odd goggles that the customer gradually warmed up to and eventually became our best selling line.
Jon Nahm, president/Triathlete Zombies

“Phillipe was extremely helpful and professional with helping me produce a product review of some Aquasphere items. He did not act in any way to try and influence my review, a character trait I find admirable and rare! This alone made me feel good about working with him and left me with a vary favorable impression of him and his business ethics.”
