Speaking Clients

Soniamarie Palmer was the perfect speaker for my event. She made quite an unsexy topic such as staff and HR very engaging and interesting. She was funny, straightforward and easy to understand. Soniamarie was powerful, charismatic and charming with an audience of about 100

people hanging off of her every word. I chose her to speak at my event after the advice she had given me many times one on one over the phone about my own staff processes, systems and management. I thought that more people needed to hear the same thing!

Soniamarie is no nonsense, hard hitting and really makes you think about your business and what the heck you have been doing in it to date! Lol  If you want someone to have impact on your audience, help them to raise their game and give them a speech that they wont forget then Soniamarie is your main lady!

 

Dean Carby

Director, Carby & Co


We booked Sonia to speak at an event for wedding planners looking to upscale their business. When we put the event together Sonia was one of the first people we wanted to come and speak. Her knowledge on HR is amazing and she spoke about it in a clear and factual way so that all the planners could easily understand and she did it with style

Louise & Katrina

Directors, Planning Refined


Soniamarie was an engaging, much loved speaker who spoke at my online event on the powerful topic of diversity and inclusion in the online space. She delivered it in an empathic way that called people up and made them truly think about what needs to change, and how that change can start with them. I would love to book her again to speak.

When looking for a guest speaker to come into my 2500+ strong FB group Soniamarie came to mind. She’s straight talking, to the point yet delivers with a positive up-beat personality.
