I don't usually write negative reviews but I think people should be warned about James Malinchak. I attended a public speaking seminar/boot camp. I got roped into buying a package that included a phone call with him and a day of brainstorming at his mansion. The phone call with him was so upsetting I was left in tears. He was rude and dismissive and rather than answering any of my questions he tried to upsell his coaching programs... so in other words if I wanted to get the answers to my questions, I had to spend thousands of dollars on his coaching program. This phone call was worthless. I knew then that I had been taken to the cleaners. After the phone call, I ended any business relationship with James Malinchak. I guess I was lucky I didn't go to the mansion... I later found out the attendees spend the entire day in the sparse desert home, listening to other attendees (not "the expert" Malinchak) without even a glass of water!
Well I am back home after four GREAT days at James Malinchak's College Speaking Success seminar. It has been a great time of learning, sharing and meeting new friends and colleagues. I have been to 4 of James' events thus far and I have to say that this one seemed different, a little special somehow. Like something extra was added to the "recipe". The morning sessions were really cool. Before we got into the main message James would share some insight into speaking and marketing that were not a part of the manual. It was like sitting with a "veteran" of speaking and marketing who was just sharing "from the heart" years of wisdom and experience. Cool stuff James! I learned a lot and once again had ideas spinning around in my head! For me this event was also really cool because of the new connections I have made -the people I have met. Nothing like being in a room with like-minded people for 4 days. The energy is very high and everyone is positive and encouraging. I left today with a lot of great ideas (and lots and lots of notes) that I am ready to apply to our business, increase our profitability, and be a blessing to the world! And last thing: one of my goals has been to not only learn how to market but also to develop a "marketing mindset". These seminars are helping me do just that! Thanks to you James, and to the whole Malinchak crew! Carpe Diem!
Words cannot express how much knowledge I received this week in Vegas from James Malinchak from ABC's hit show, Secret Millionaire and Big Money Speaker. 'The Million Dollar Speaker Secrets' training has changed my speaking game forever! James was so down to earth that he even invited us to a BBQ at his personal home.

Thank you James for cutting away the weeds so we can focus on the forest!
Simply put, James Malinchak is world class. I am very selective in who I endorse and choose to have as my coach. As someone who has coached other coaches to have a world class coaching mindset for over 20 years, I believe I am qualified to discern who is the real deal. So, who do I choose to have as my coach? James Malinchak. He doesn't just talk the talk. He is doing what he says and shares. I have been a coaching client for a couple of years now, and James continues to overdeliver.

-Viktoriya Legkun
James is a beast of a businessman and one of my favorite easy to work with clients! I’ve travelled with James to multiple conferences and trainings and he’s by far the best at absorbing and implementing systems. I’ve helped James fill his phenomenal “Big Money Speaker” events and he’s the master of teaching entrepreneurs how to leverage their existing expertise to get paid to speak from the stage! His track record speaks for itself!
I’ve had the pleasure of working with and learning from James, and the value of his incredible business acumen and generous guidance cannot be overstated. He enriches all who know him! If you have a chance to work with James—run, don’t walk, and make it happen. You’ll be so glad you did!
James is truly a master at his craft and an inspiration to many! He knows the way around speaking and selling not only from stage but through quality and impactful relationships. One thing that James taught me that has forever led the way I drive my future networking moments is to lead with a "white napkin" mindset and go into conversations with others asking what you can do for them rather than what most do and seek what others can do for them. Give give give and serve serve serve and you will ultimately be led to what you seek.
James thank you for our time working together, the book we co-authored, and a sharing a principle that I will forever follow and teach to others!
If you want to get better at public speaking and writing books, James is the guy to know! He is truly a master at his craft and teaching others how to be as well in a very fun pragmatic way. Not just how to speak well, but how to effectively market and monetize your speaking and make a business out of it. His ninja techniques will blow you away. Plus, he is just a super great guy in general with a great heart. Get to know him, get to his bootcamps, become a client - you will not regret it. I highly recommend James.
If you want smart, and easy to execute, tips for building your personal brand and positioning, James Malinchak has you covered. He's been my branding go-to person for the past year. His experience uncovers hidden potential & turns it into specific actions with lasting impact. He's a real ninja when it comes to marketing yourself and your business. Not to mention, he helped me write and publish a #1 Amazon bestselling book that got the attention (and endorsement) from business leaders like Kevin Harrington and Brian Tracy. Pure gold for your time (and money)! I strongly recommend him to help evolve your brand by get things done properly.
Being a Former Navy SEAL I’ve witnessed some great leadership throughout my career. James is up there with the best leaders and coaches I’ve ever worked with. He is a true professional!
Of the many “guru’s” out there who teach people skills on what it takes to win, he’s one of the FEW who actually delivers measurable results for anyone who works with him. He will take you to a much higher level than where you are now.
I’ve had the pleasure of working with him for a year now and the skills that he taught me helped take my business from doing about $4 Million in sales to over $10 million in sales in just about 8 months!
Making the decision to work with James was one of the BEST and most profitable decisions I have ever made and I would recommend him to anyone! You’ll be very thankful that you decided to choose James!

I highly recommend James Malinchak! James is a man of integrity and someone you can trust! He always has your back and is here to help you in any way!
I first hired James in 2014 to help me grow my speaking business. I was making roughly $250 per presentation before I started working with him. James' brilliant marketing mind, and the support I get with being in his mastermind, has helped me create the necessary components in my business to command up to $8,000 per presentation. I continue to work with James because with him, the sky is the limit!
James is the real deal in every sense of the word. I first met James while attending his "Big Money Speaker Bootcamp" in 2015 and was blown away by the overwhelming quantity of non-stop CONTENT that was provided. Before I even left the event, I was implementing ideas for my speaking business. I then attended his "College Speaking Bootcamp" in 2016 and had the honor of being an author in his book, "Reach Your Greatness." I've since be back to "Big Money Speaker" and attended a Mastermind in his home and am looking forward to another one very soon. The more time you spend learning from James, the more time you want to spend learning from James! He knows marketing - speaking - authoring - business - and more ... as well as how to be successful while remaining authentic! I urge you to attend one of his events - you will be hooked and want more!
And, I've been a personal Coaching Member of James' for 11 years!

I Highly Recommend Coaching With James Malinchak! My decision to enlist the help and support of James to clarify and create my personal brand was one of my most valuable business decisions I’ve ever made.
Sure, his tips on running my speaking business like a business was valuable; but, his encouragement to embrace my story, speak boldly about the lessons of my failures and defeats, and to focus on serving others has not only made me a better entrepreneur, leader and keynote speaker, but a better person…now that’s invaluable!
If given the opportunity, I highly recommend coaching with James Malinchak!

James Malinchak is the BEST business coach in the business! I have known James for over 10 years and ever since our first 30-minute conversation, my life and business have never been the same. If you are looking for someone to take your life and business to the next level, then you need to contact James immediately! He was my speaking, marketing and business coach. I would not be where I am today without the support, guidance and expertise of Mr. James Malinchak!
James Malinchak is ONE of a kind and the best in the business! I heard about James Bootcamps in November of 2009. December of 2009 I experienced the good fortune of attending his Bootcamp and January of 2010 I was @ James beautiful home for my 1st life changing 1 on 1 Coaching Session! James taught me how to jump start my Coaching and Speaking Practice! He gave me the recipe for SUCCESS, all I had to do was EXECUTE and be patient! During our time together he continues to Lead and Challenge me to be at my very best! James is the Guru of Marketing and he is an open book. Speaking of books... another AHA moment; my bucket list included writing a book, like so many others I would start and stop, but never get close to completion. James and I discussed this at our first session and 5 months later, I was an author and today that book resides on Amazon as a #1 International Best-Seller with 1, 000s being sold! In-fact, I have 2 books and my 3rd is 70% complete! James showed me HOW to get it DONE and as important held me ACCOUNTABLE! The presenters, celebrities, content, networking opportunities from all walks of life around the world are worth every penny during his Bootcamps, but the benefit of a relationship with James is PRICELESS! Reinvent yourself, experience goal attainment and take the opportunity to GROW with James LEADERSHIP if offered!
Every once in a while you come across someone who is truly an expert in their field. And if you are lucky, you get a chance to work with them. This was the case with James. I considered the investment I made to work with him for two years as one of the best business decisions I have ever made. In the time working with him, I attended 7 of his trainings, amongst other meetings/gatherings. Each time I walked away with more information I could immediately implement into my business. My reputation is very important to me, so it takes a lot for me to recommend someone. In my time being coached by James I referred over 40 people to his trainings and 8 colleagues became coaching clients of his. James is the real deal!

I have worked with several speaker coaches prior to James with disappointing results, but after spending just one afternoon of personal coaching with James I am convinced that James Malinchak is the REAL DEAL. He listens, then goes to work and the RESULTS for me will be over the top. The old adage "When the student is ready, the teacher appears" applies here. I'm so grateful that I was smart enough to invest in myself and hire the BEST! If you're not sure what you should do, call me. I will gladly share with you my story and if you're ready, direct you to the best speaker and marketing coach on the planet!
I have had the great pleasure and opportunity to be a platinum coaching member of James Malinchak for the past two years. During this time, James has helped create amazing out-of-the box strategies that has allowed me to received promotions and raises at my company. In addition, James has been helping me to kickstart my public speaking platform and strategies for Universities and Corporations. If you are serious about taking your business, or professional goals to the next level, investing in James' knowledge, experience and support is a must! James, thank you for being such an awesome mentor and friend!
It is my absolute pleasure to recommend James Malinchak with www.malinchak.com. James is currently my business and speaking coach. He is one of the best in the market in helping business owners elevate their position in the marketplace, and grow their businesses. I enjoy working with James. He is honest, funny, and incredibly knowledgeable in the areas of marketing, business, and public speaking. Beyond that, he is an impressive business coach who wants all of his clients to succeed!

Really...I don't make many recommendations. So take this seriously! Yes, James' speaker training is exceptional. Beyond that, though, he has a rare ability to cut through the clutter and uncover the highest and best marketing strategy in any situation. James is an invaluable resource for me. Unless you want to stand still or go backward, he should be for you too!

No matter where you are in your career, James will help catapult you to the next level.

James is incredibly honest, authentic, warm and personable -- plus he has tremendous business acumen and phenomenal writing and public speaking skills.
-Dan Janal / Founder, www.PRLeads.com
I have invested in James Malinchak's products, coaching programs, attended his Boot Camps and Masterminds for 10 years. James was my encourager to write my first two books. His teaching on marketing and real world speaking business has changed my life!
I do not work for James Malinchak. I have not been to a full Malinchak coaching event. However, I have bought one of his smaller packages. It was worth a hundred times what I paid for it. James knows an enormous amount about how to be a successful public speaker. His insights are many and useful.
I have seen James and his content and was skeptical until I saw it for myself. I have not taken the coaching program yet but I am planning on it this year. I do know people who have taken it and are doing great. It is a real business transformer IF YOU APPLY IT. I have talked to real people not actors or anything that have used it and it works for them. This is a business service the price is small compared to the amount of return on the investment for just a few changes to your business.
For the first time in my life, I feel I have actual direction with someone who's going to help me achieve my wildest goals and dreams. They say when the student is ready, the teacher will appear; well, I have finally found my teacher in James!
-Bashar Mutlak, President & CEO, High-Performance Practitioner, Inc.
I was pleasantly surprised by the easy-to-follow, step-by-step, follow-the-numbers blueprint shared by James Malinchak. From my perspective and as a veteran of two Fortune 500 companies, James has over-delivered in both content and perspective on how to find and work your niche. He clearly taught me how to define my avatar through proper positioning of my message to market.
-Miguel A. de Jesus, CEO and Founder, Purpose and Action, LLC.
Of all the workshops and seminars that I have ever attended, James Malinchak's Big Money Speaker Boot Camp' was by far the BEST! The workbook we used is my new Bible. It is loaded with content that I can refer to over and over again. When it comes to product development, increasing my number of bookings, and adding value to my programs, this program gave me all this and more. I am looking forward to the next one!
-Lisa Ryan, President of Grategy
This is the 10th time I have attended one of James Malinchak's Speaker Boot Camps and every time I get a page full of great ideas I can implement immediately!
-Chris Scappatura of Contagious Enthusiasm Inc.
Anyone who desires to take not only themselves, but their business to the next level, I highly recommend going to James Malinchak's Boot Camp. I came out with pages of priceless ideas that I am very excited to implement. With his success blueprint that he selflessly delivers, you would be a fool not to succeed!
