Professional Speaker: Mark Hughes

Professional Speaker – Author, Mark Hughes
If you’re looking for a professional speaker, with energy, a breakout book, and a $300 million dollar track record…Mark Hughes could make it on your short list for a professional speaker.

Some call him the $300 million dollar man…Time magazine calls him the man behind “one of the greatest publicity coups in history.”

Mark Hughes literally put Half.com on the map by convincing Halfway, Oregon to rename itself to Half.com, Oregon.

The payoff ?  eBay bought the company just six months after launch for over $300 million.

As an author and energetic professional speaker, Hughes’ specialty is word-of-mouth and buzz marketing.

A Professional Speaker With A Top Ten Business Book

Son of a Pulitzer prize-winning journalist, his book Buzzmarketing receives accolades from the former editor of The Wall Street Journal, the former CEO of Dow Jones, the former Chief Marketing Officer of Pepsi-Cola, and Steve Forbes of Forbes Magazine.   Endorsements rarely found for a professional speaker.

The Financial Times of London dubs his book one of the ‘Best Business Books of the Year’ along with Freakonomics.  Fast Company proclaimed Hughes’ book one of ‘The Ten Best Business Reads of the year’ in its first publication.  Ask yourself: which other professional speaker has praise like this and a book published in 11 different languages?

A Professional Speaker With Energy You Can Drink

In an era of business turmoil, Mark Hughes opens his secrets of buzz and word-of mouth in an informative, easy-to-follow manner…with energy never seen before in a professional speaker.  As a former radio talk show host, Hughes combines the energy from talk radio with the practical hands-on business experience that he used to create buzz for Half.com’s $300 million dollar windfall.

Hughes’ speaking scores speak for them self (40% better scores than Sergio Zyman, the former CMO of Coca-Cola) but most of all, your attendees will begin using his concepts the very next day.  Tom Neilssen, his speaking agent, is the former agent for another prolific professional speaker, Malcolm Gladwell.

A Professional Speaker With An Amazing Resume

Hughes holds his MBA from Columbia Business School.  Before eBay's Half.com (NASDAQ: EBAY) and life as an author, consultant, and professional speaker, Hughes spent his career working for PepsiCo's Pizza Hut Division (NYSE: YUM); Pep Boys (NYSE: PBY); and American Mobile Satellite (now transformed to XM Satellite Radio  NASDAQ:  XMSR).

Transforming ideas into buzz, is the economic currency of today’s breakout companies.  Are you ready to have Mark Hughes to make this your most memorable event?
