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!
The networking opportunities were fantastic. I made a lot of valuable connections that will help me take my business to the next level. -Adam Hommey, Host of The Business Creators' Radio Show
James is an insightful coach. What I learn from him in a day is more than what I learn from other coaches in 6 months! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND working with James. If you want to continue to grow your business make a long-term investment in James Malinchak's coaching!

It is my core belief that if one wants to have more, one has to become more. My life, personally and professionally, has never been the same since I started acting on this belief. My life, personally and professionally, has not been the same since I started working with James Malinchak. James is truly one the very best trainers for speakers, authors and entrepreneurs. Not only does James care about your business, he cares about your life. Because of coaching with James, our business doubled in two years and will grow FIVE times in the next two years. All while having more freedom. Working with James Malinchak is an absolute NO BRAINER but only if you are ready to take action.

I have had the great pleasure of having James Malinchak as a coach, mentor and friend. His strategies are real world tested and proven to get you results!

I have been coaching with James over the past 2-years and I can tell you without a doubt his coaching has taken 15 yrs off my learning curve. I took what he taught me and implemented it quickly and increased my revenue significantly! He is a great coach and has become a good friend.
If you are looking to make money as a speaker or how to apply your business into the speakers world and make money then you need to attend his next Big Money Boot Camp. You will not regret it!
I have had the good fortune of knowing and working with James Malinchak for many years now.

The attendees were overwhelmingly impressed by his knowledge and business acumen. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND working with James if you want to take your career and company to new heights!

I've spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on coaches and consultants and James Malinchak is one of the BEST in the world at his craft. I went to his house for coaching and got SO MANY Golden Nuggets and SO much shifted for me! My advice to you is to coach with James!

My name is Garrett J. White, Founder of Wake Up Warrior and 15 years ago before I even got into the space of coaching and consulting, I was at an event, a speaking event with James Malinchak. I was in Vegas. I lived there at the time and had the chance to sit in his audience. Now, at the time, my banking world and everything I built had imploded, so I was trying to figure out who I am and what I was going to do. And I'm sitting in this room with my friend Garrett B. Gunderson, and the third day, James makes an offer for $100,000. At the time, my mind was blown. I'm like, how is this even possible that he's selling something for 100,000? And what was crazier was to watch 20, 30 people stand up and go buy it. It wasn't just that he made it; is that people were buying it. And I'm sitting there going, how is this possible? And I had no money at the time. My first businesses have crashed. I'm trying to find myself. Little did I realize that seed of that moment was a seed that grew in me, and forward pushed my life to what you're seeing here. This is my house in Miami. This is a $29 million home. I have all the cars I want, the life I want, the movement I want. But the crazy part is, I don't charge a million dollars for consulting, $500,000, $250,000 but it took somebody like James to be able to step into my world when I needed it to plant a seed that it was possible. So listen, he retired the entire event series that me and so many others got to experience over the years. He's bringing it back. I was a product of it. It's time for you to be a product of it. So follow these all on this page. Check it out and get your [censored] to his event!
-Garrett J. White, Founder of the Wake-Up Warrior Movement
I just wrapped up a full day of consulting that I hired James Malinchak to help me launch my keynote speaking business, and I got to tell you, I've known James for 28 years. I've hired James to speak at my own events back in the day, and today was unlike anything we've ever done together. It was step by step exactly what I need to do to reach my personal goals with the speaking business and how to take my message, which was one of the biggest breakthroughs that I had, and bring it out. I needed somebody different than myself to give me that feedback. Like Ed, you're on the right track. Here's what you got to change. This is what you do first, second, third, fourth. Here's what you say when you're on calls. Here's how to do the business of speaking so that I'm set up for success. So if you're out there, you're like, "Hey, I'm looking to grow in my event business, my speaking business, and I want to be around the master. There's no one better in the world than James Malinchak. He's literally hired by Kevin Harrington, Jack Canfield, Joe Theismann, and the list goes on and on. They hire him year after year for a reason because he's the best in the business. So, if you're out there thinking, "Hey, should I hire James, join his coaching club, or whatever else that he would provide you? Don't hesitate. Just do it. I guarantee it'll be the best investment you make in your career and in your business!
I am a proud, proud coaching student of James Malinchak for over four years, actually, just starting my fifth year, and I do not have enough incredible things to say about working with James. Before I started with James, I knew I wanted to be a speaker, and I was spending hours and hours, weeks and weeks, doing all of the wrong things, building a database of people who don't have the budgets to hire me, spending hours and hours reaching out, cold calling, and getting absolutely nothing. And I was bartending part time while I was trying to build this business. I made the year before I started with James, I made under $10,000 a year. After my first year with James, learning from him, understanding the finesse and the techniques of the speaking business-not just the speaking, but the speaking business-I doubled my income from the year before. The year after that, I almost 10X. I think I 5X my income from the prior year. So, I went from 10,000 a year to 20,000 in the year from speaking business alone to 100 and over $120,000 a year to last year I made almost $500,000 from speaking. So, before James and after James, it was an incredibly life changing experience. He has the tools and the knowledge and the understanding of the industry. He knows exactly what to do. He creates a simple, easy-to-follow blueprint for you to accomplish your goals to become a speaker. And he knows more than anyone about the college market. So I, Marissa Cohen, Speaker of the Year, America's #1 Healthy Relationship Speaker, travel around the country all year round to speak and promote healthy relationships in colleges, paid speaking gigs. 100% could not have done this without James. He is the, he's the master. He knows everything. He teaches you the exact steps to follow, the exact blueprint for you to get from where you are to becoming a successful paid speaker in this field. I 100% without a shred of hesitation, recommend and absolutely encourage you to reach out to James. Go to his house, use all of his tools and resources, pick his brain. His knowledge is endless, and I promise you, you will see results!
I’m here at James Malinchak’s 2-day coaching – just finished Day 1 and I can't wait for the second day. I am just so filled up. James is adding so much value to me and the whole group, and I just I'm excited for today. It's like we're going to go to a whole higher level!
I’m actually here in Las Vegas with James Malinchak, and I wanted to make you this really quick video to share that 14 years ago I was in a mastermind with James Malinchak. We had so much fun. The individuals that he attracted were so amazing, and I've honestly thought about coming back or thought about spending time with him again over the last 14 years, and I'm so excited to be back here that I wanted to make you this video. What I'm excited to share with you is that I've been in transition. Part of the reason that I that I took a hiatus is that I was trying to figure out what I was going to do, and if I were to advise my past self, I would say I never should have left. And the reason is because I find James Malinchak to be so generous with his knowledge, so generous with his time, and I'm sitting in a room here in Vegas with about 40 entrepreneurs. They are the most heart-based, intelligent, brilliant, giving human beings that I've ever met in any mastermind, and it's who James attracts. So, I just want to share with you that if you're looking for a home as an entrepreneur, a place that you feel like you can be yourself, a place that you feel like you can express and get honest feedback, like no BS, no fluff, and you truly want to make a difference, I absolutely love this group, and we would love to have you!

But I'm here to tell you about how I was hanging out at James Malinchak's house for a coaching and mastermind session, which was incredible. James taught us, over the course of a few days, amazing techniques to implement in our sales and marketing businesses as entrepreneurs. Things I'd never heard anywhere else, and I highly recommend you check out all of James Malinchak's courses, consulting, masterminds, and more!

I’m the Founder of FNDRS. We help companies scale and exit all around the world. We have a bunch of different entities, and what I learned here in two days with James Malinchak, not even two full days, even a day and a half-like my mind was blown by all the intricacies of the business behind the speaking business. I've been around the top speakers my entire life. I was one of the chauffeurs when I was 18 years old for some of the best speakers in the world: Brian Tracy, Charlie “Tremendous” Jones, Zig Ziglar, and I would be their driver, and I get to connect with them. But I never knew what was behind it. I've got friends that speak all over the world, but I didn't know the little things that would make the difference to turn a just a normal speech into something better. So, you can actually get into the places where you get into and actually make the money for what you actually do. And there's no one that I've ever met of all my friends and all in speaking that are all over the country that nail it so succinctly as James Malinchak does!

I would highly recommend James to any client on their journey of self-education for professional development and productivity, and/or increased success!
Although it's been many years since I engaged and invested in James' seminars, I still remember so many of the Ah-Ha moments he taught me as a great foundation for what I do today. I learned it's one thing to mentally know and understand what I was being taught, but where the rubber meets the road is how well I implemented what I learned from James. I am finally putting into action many of the nuggets he taught me. Conclusion: I HIGHLY recommend James Malinchak's courses as long as you implement what you learn for the best results and success!
