Speaking & Workshops

He manages to draw on his personal experiences with his focus on excellence of paramount importance.

He has delivered these to audiences in London, government officials in Washington DC and the West Indies.  These have included symposiums – both by teleconference and in person, training courses for organisations including Rich Visions, Hatch Events, The Caribbean Telecommunications Union, AFFORD, TNG, INBIZ, South London Business, The Caribbean Development Bank, Emirates & Sung, Croydon Business and Governments in Trinidad, The British Virgin Islands, St.Maarten and Dominica

Innovation and Entrepreneurship

Covering topics such as “Bye Bye Nine to Five, Hello Dot Com!”, “Staying the Distance Through Feast and Famine” and “Young Enterprise”, Julian delivers messages on entrepreneurism to very wide audiences, from those who are currently in a job, to those business owners looking to use innovation to expand their business and increase their revenue alike.  

His ethos to corporates is knowing how to climb the corporate ladder by thinking like an entrepreneur, and to SMEs to understand your audience more, think more like a corporate.

Online / Digital Marketing

Julian’s first love and passion : he’s written many widely published articles on this topic including “What women want…Oh And Google!” will give you a idea of the flavour he brings to what would otherwise seem like a mundane topic.  Julian’s Digital Persona EngagementTM model will give you a better understanding of what you customer does when online.  The point Julian emphasises is that you don’t need a large budget to do this successfully : compared to traditional marketing methods the ROI you can expect will have you laughing within 3 months of hearing him speak.

Social Media

Using Social Media as successfully as Obama did to win the election is a valuable skill that any company needs to adopt.  Facebook, Twitter, Xing, Linked In, FourSquare (to name but a few) are all names we should be familiar with – but how to use this to turn it into business?  Julian not only provides the answer, but he’ll have your audience engaged and inspired to take the bull by the horns with the nuggets he’ll leave them with.

Networking Effectively

Are you wondering how to pluck up the courage and start speaking to people when at networking events?  Or perhaps unsure at what stage to swap cards?  Or do you have stacks of cards in your desk drawer, but unsure how to convert that into business?

The Networking workshops is a practical approach to business networking and how to maximise on this skill to turn most encounters into a brilliant networking opportunity.

Motivational Speaking

Feeling overwhelmed by the current downturn in the market?  Unsure of how to give your business a fresh injection of motivation?  Then booking Julian to speak to your workforce will definitely help.  
He’ll help them become re-focused, set new goals and inspire to move forward with a more definite mindset.

Testimonials

Julian is an inspiring and knowledgeable entrepreneur who without second thought gave up his time to speak on a number of occasions at Brunel University. Educating students on "Entrepreneurship" along side the likes of Levi Roots, and "How to conquer the internet" along side a Guardian Columnist, he fostered an entrepreneurial spirit amongst students through is genuine passion for what he does, his professionalism, his presence and the way he engages students. 
Julian is certainly an expert in his field, but remains humble, selflessly giving back to society by sharing his experiences and expertise. On one occassion, Julian not only featured as a judge, judging students who had been set a web design challenge, but offered up his time, tips and advice for those who won the challenge. 
This is why, I not only highly regard Julian as an inspiring entrepreneur and a motivational speaker, but above all, a gentleman.The latest event the Julian Hall spoke at was even featured in an article in the Guardian Newspaper.
It was an honour to work with Julian. - Lorraine Wright, Accenture Management Consulting

"Julian is an outstanding motivational speaker who energised and encouraged our young people when he came to visit. Through his personable and flexible approach, he inspired all our young people - many of whom have been excluded or are from extremely challenging backgrounds - to go out and strive to be the best they can.
Julian's story of his success brought home to his audience, the qualities and effort needed to make it as an entrepreneur. He really opened the young people's eyes about what career choices are available to them.
We would like to thank Julian for taking the time to visit us and share such valuable information"
