Testimonials – Page 4
Jim Murray was responsible for the development of the first ever WellWorks video. He had a keen interest and understanding of what it should include so it could be used for multi-purposes. (i.e. staff training, member recruitment)
“Jim put many many hours into the production so that it would turn out just right. In addition to its making Jim also followed up with us to help us market the video outside of the university.
“Jim has included WellWorks on The Athens Morning Fax for the past several years. He has been responsible for design and publishing of over 200 wellness tips related to the ad. For the many customers who receive The Athens Morning Fax they are exposed to our name and a positive tip of the day!

“If you’ve read the other testimonials and evaluations by now, you should know that Jim Murray has amassed a long list of very satisfied customers, as he never fails to promise a lot, and deliver more than he promised.
“I have nothing but praise for the classes and workshops I’ve taken from Jim, but would like to specifically mention two reasons why I’d encourage anyone with the opportunity to take a class from Jim:
1) His quick and creative mind: Jim astounds me with his amazing ability to answer students’ questions or requests for ideas – instantly offering not just one suggestion, but two or three—and usually NONE of them are things you had considered. Pick any product — “day-old bread,” for example, and within 5 minutes Jim will rattle off so many potential markets that you’ll be convinced there isn’t enough day-old bread in the state to meet all the demand. Jim’s mind is quite simply a rapid-fire machine of information.
2) His ability to motivate: You do not leave Jim’s class thinking, “that was very interesting. I really learned a lot.” You walk out of his programs not only knowing HOW to attain your goal, but more importantly, BELIEVING YOU CAN DO SO.
“I think Jim considers “information” to be the primary product he markets, but to me, the added value he provides, the unadvertised self-confidence he instills in his students, is worth every dollar of the program fee.
“Jim Murray is a uniquely-talented individual. His courses are far superior to 99% of those offered by his competitors.
“After completing an entrepreneurial course from him, I was able to market a collection of items donated from the trash of local carry-outs, and make a quick $2000”
