"After Johnny “wowed” the group with his inspiring words, lines wrapped around the hall to get one of the limited edition custom shirts he made for our event. We sold out in under 90 minutes and had to place an additional order. In true Johnny fashion he stayed to greet everyone in line even those that didn’t get a shirt. Our people are still talking about the event a year later and I often see the custom t-shirts around the country!"

Reimagining Marketing & Sales
Johnny touches on why one handwritten note, personalized gift, or a community event could be more powerful than a cold email campaign to strangers. Johnny shares examples of how adding a dash of imagination and extra detail can drive a chunkier return on investment when it comes to marketing and sales, like when he rented a real coffin and hearse from a creepy guy on Craigslist to get delivered in for the nighttime release of his limited edition, VHS-packaged, Halloween movie themed T-shirts. This $220 vehicle rental attracted lifetime memories, created brand ambassadors, and garnered millions in free marketing as channel 4 news dedicated an entire segment to this release.
Example Quotes: “Don’t check boxes, create new boxes to check”, "Achieve free digital marketing through delighting customers", and "It's not about B2B or B2C, it's about H2H—Human to Human."

Finding A Way
So many ideas, so little resources! Some of the biggest business success stories were the product of dollar coffees and a loving parent’s garage – including Johnny Cupcakes. So if you have the drive then this presentation will show you and your audience how to get behind the wheel and steer your organization into new territories and gently away from old ways! With utter conviction and complete passion Johnny will talk leaders, entrepreneurs, marketers, and sales teams through the lessons he has learned on his journey to global domination – and arm them with easy to apply strategies for making their dreams a reality. Johnny shares dozens of ingredients to success, including the power of details, collaboration, and the art of rolling with the punches while learning to adapt.
