"I have followed Bill Cole's outstanding work in mental game coaching
for many years and have been privileged to have him as a Guest Expert
on our international coaching web site for martial arts practitioners
and coaches, and military and police professionals, www.mymalife.com.
Bill regularly provides amazing peak performance insights and leading-edge
ideas and principles to the world of martial arts across these performance
arenas. He has helped us understand and apply the concepts of mental
toughness, mental training, concentration, focus and mental readiness
for sports competition and law enforcement and military applications.
Our clients must have mental toughness to be able to operate in
these very difficult, and often dangerous environments. Bill gives
us the mental tools we need to navigate those challenging assignments.
In this regard, Bill Cole is a mental toughness master. He's our
mental game guru.
While many sport psychologists offer standard peak performance theoretical
concepts, Bill goes far beyond that, and knows what actually works
in the real world. He teaches new ways of looking at old problems,
with expert mind game solutions that really work. His understanding
of the mind-body processes in peak performance and how to manage
them, in learning, and pressure performance situations is simply
uncanny. His background as a top athlete, researcher-writer, teacher-coach
and businessman blend together to create innovative and highly practical
success strategies. His teaching system for mastering the mental
game is beyond compare.
I have studied the mental game extensively over the years, and have
worked closely with other international sport psychologists, and
it's clear that Bill Cole is a major thought leader in sport psychology.
We are fortunate to have him as our Guest Expert.
Bill Cole is a world-class mental game coach who gets world-class
results. If you are considering bringing Bill in to speak, coach
or consult, I know you will be thrilled with the results he brings
to you and your organization."

"I want to thank you for an outstanding session you delivered to
our team of Vice Presidents during our 2001 Kickoff event. The "fire-side"
chat session was a phenomenal success, and provided a great opportunity
for us to focus on critical components of your "Peak Performance"
program. Your presentation was superb as you made many of the concepts
come to life through powerful "real-world" examples and demonstrations.
The hands-on activities provided a great complement to the format,
to make the whole experience highly interactive and fun!

I believe the discussions around 'getting in the zone' and the 'ten
magic moments' made a huge positive impact on our team. The participants
found these to be practical and timely tips that would help them
become even more successful in their professional careers and personal
lives. As you know, many of them have asked you for personal coaching
sessions to develop these skills further, to be great leaders in
our firm. Thanks again Bill. You helped deliver one of the best
programs we have had. I look forward to working with you closely."

You are masterful at getting the audience to own their questions

You really have a way of making us stop and pay attention to how
we come across as leaders.
Your program clearly made a positive impact on our group. I understand

teach to their businesses."

"Bill Cole, MS, MA is one of the most brilliant negotiators in the
business world today and he walked me through exactly how he does
it. In just four coaching sessions with Bill, I went from being
unassertive to becoming a powerful businesswoman. He showed me all
the inside secrets for top-level deal making with CEO's.

Bill Cole was there every step of the way as I was in the middle
of the biggest deal of my professional career, negotiating with
some very powerful players. Bill made me realize that I am offering
something EXTREMELY VALUABLE. Then he showed me how to demonstrate
my value so that CEO's are compelled to offer large sums of money
for the products I can create.

"Most importantly, I learned from Bill when to move forward and
when to walk away from a deal to stay out of trouble -- to keep
my self-respect and dignity at the end of the day. I can now carry
these negotiating skills way beyond my career, when I buy my next
house, or boat, or Lear jet!

Thank you Bill Cole, you're amazing!"

interplay between the audience and yourself as you coached us right
from the platform. Your methods and insights will cut years off
our people's success learning curves! Your mental game approach
to achievement and success is a message that should be heard by
everyone. After your program, the audience made fourteen requests

"Bill Cole presented his outstanding program, "Winning The Mental
Game Of Selling" to our Chamber Of Commerce this past week.
His program was very, very well-received. We just wish we had more
time to learn from Bill. He clearly has deep knowledge about selling
and peak performance and a wonderful ability to share that information
so it is immediately useful and meaningful to all types of businesspeople.
Bill is a personable, fun, friendly speaker who uses in the moment
humor and observations to make his material come alive so it is
memorable and meaningful for everyone. Everyone had a great time
and learned a wealth of valuable information.

Bill Cole is a business-golf guru. He knows the mental game of selling
and the mental game of golf inside and out. He has an amazing ability
to take peak performance principles from sport, in this case golf,
and relate them directly to sales so people "get it" and can begin
using those concepts in their business right away. Bill goes far
beyond talking about peak performance sales methods and techniques.
He has people live them, so they own them.

Some of the enthusiastic endorsements from our participants included:
"You were a huge hit with the group", "I was thoroughly impressed",
It was great!", "Great program!", "I wanted the program to go all
day!" and "You did a fabulous job!". The evaluations were fantastically
positive and there were 20 requests for more information about his
services and programs. That's quite a response! Bill knows how to
connect with people- and how to teach others to do that. He gets
right to the core of what people in sales need and gives them immediate
bottom-line value. I highly recommend Bill Cole to any group that
wants to learn from an authority in peak performance, especially
in selling and in golf. Bill is a real gem!"

"Bill, I wanted to tell you how much you helped me prepare for the
series of interviews I recently completed in seeking the position
of Superintendent. Your assistance was invaluable in helping me
achieve success in this job-seeking campaign.

Our sessions prior to each interview gave me a lot of confidence
and helped me prepare in ways I couldn't have by myself. Thanks
for coming over to my office that time on such short notice, and
on a weekend! That's going the extra mile for your clients. I really
appreciate it.

I used many of the things we had talked about. The 'interview mini-speeches'
content we crafted and the facial expressions you helped me be aware
of, including "smiles" was very, very helpful. Our videotape sessions
were eye-opening! You helped me know what to expect once in the
interview, and how to turn the stress into peak performance. I felt
very calm once I got through the very first question. You are a
great coach! So, thanks to you for all of your support and helpful
feedback. Once the dust settles, I know I would like to call upon
you again--there will be many speaking opportunities and I would
like to continue to work on my skills in this area.
I will certainly recommend you to other people who could use your
expert coaching. Many thanks again for all your help and your great
coaching."

"As a Stanford performance expert and credentialed
sports psychologist who worked with top athletes at the Olympic
Training Center in Greece, I was looking for the best media coach
possible to help me prepare for my international interviews on major
TV networks -- BBC, ABC, Fox News, and Associated Press Radio.

Choosing to work with Bill Cole, The Mental Game Coach, is without
a doubt, one of the best decisions I've ever made. His brilliant
media coaching, including scripting, clever sound bytes, media strategies,
and performance methods helped me to feel prepared for anything
that might happen during my national TV interviews. The mock interviews
we did helped me to think through and craft my material to the reporter's
needs. With Bill's expertise, I learned how to play the media game
and feel comfortable in high pressure media situations.

As a result of our intensive coaching, the TV interviews went extremely
well. I felt relaxed and ready, I was confident with my material
and delivery. The reporters loved the sound bytes that we created,
and I got national and international exposure that I never thought
possible. Bill Cole knows the media well and he is fun and a joy
to work with. I always enjoy our sessions. He comes up with some
amazingly clever phrases that keep the media coming back again and
again.

Bill is an expert at creating and building good relationships with
his clients and with the media. While in Greece at the Olympic Games,
I was interviewed by the Associated Press Radio. This interview
was syndicated and broadcast to over 5,000 stations worldwide. I've
done repeat interviews with the BBC-TV and ABC, as well as the New
York Times, Time Magazine, and the Los Angeles Times and USA Today.

I highly recommend Bill Cole's media coaching services to anyone
who wants more positive exposure to skyrocket their career. If you
really want to see IMMEDIATE and SIGNIFICANT results, Bill Cole,
the Mental Game Coach is the best resource in the business. His
coaching was well worth the investment."

over the interview strategies you gave me again. It's such good
solid material, and it really helped me do a great interview with
the reporter from the Times.

So once again I really thank you. I felt so much more prepared for
the interview. Thank you so much for your expert help!!"
