IFAI Expo 2019

Thom Singer, CSP




Thom Singer’s first job was a busboy at “The Big Yellow House Restaurant” in Southern California. It was in this role that he discovered the importance of customizing his work for whomever he had the honor to serve. From the vast number of customers who dined in the restaurant, to the three or four wait-staff whom he helped each night, Thom realized that you have to make personal connections. Finding ways to relate differently to each person is key if you want to find more success. In today’s distracted work environment there is a disconnect between social media “likes”, “links”, “shares” and “follows” and real meaningful business connections. Thom’s work centers around helping people get back to the basics of relationships that lead to better opportunities and more sales. He focuses on the importance of helping everyone get closer to their own potential, and the potential of their organization. Thom has authored twelve books on the power of business relationships, sales, networking, presentation skills and entrepreneurship, and regularly speaks to corporate, law firm and convention audiences. As the host of the popular “Cool Things Entrepreneurs Do” podcast, Thom interviews business leaders, entrepreneurs, solopreneurs, and others who possess an extra dose of the entrepreneurial spirit. The information compiled from these compelling interviews is shared with his clients, as he challenges people to be more engaged and enthusiastic in all their actions. Thom lives by the motto “Try New Things”. After being a couch potato for most of his life, Thom is now an avid runner and completed his first half-marathon. As a life long “city kid” he has recently discovered the joys of nature. And after a life of admiring stand up comedians, he recently started performing in open mic nights and comedy shows.
