Testimonials

"I just want to tell you how much I enjoyed having you speak during our Leadership Retreat at the Apple Farm in San Luis Obispo this year. The ratings for your presentation from both consultants and directors attending the retreat were very high.Your personal journey and down to earth method of casting a vision for the audience is very refreshing. My ears are always open when I am learning from someone who has 'walked the walk.' I look forward to working with you again in the future."
Sherill Calhoun
California Executive Senior Sales Director , Mary Kay Cosmetics


"We found Mr. Cisneros to be prompt and responsive to our request for our assistance and we were able to arrive at the desired product; a mission statement and a five year plan. This was a first effort on the part of the Housing Authority to create a mission statement and consider five year goals. His facilitation of this process helped to bring it to fruition. In fact, the accomplishment more than met our expectations. Mr. Cisneros' ability to conceptualize the challenges such a group must tackle in order to go forward were key to our success. It was a sincere pleasure to have Mr. Cisneros facilitate this effort. We look forward to working with him again."
Kathy Coe-Aguras, Executive Director, Housing Authority of the County of Monterey, California


“On behalf of the owners at Coldwell Banker Vista Associates, we wish to express our sincere appreciation for the joint meetings we have had and for the information you so willingly shared with us. We found the meetings beneficial and feel we acquired more knowledge in conducting our business more efficiently.”
Lisa Newton, Owner, Coldwell Banker Vista Corporation, San Luis Obispo, CA


“Phil Cisneros was the keynote speaker who closed our San Luis Obispo Agency Field Office Marketing Conference. Phil’s message was personalized for our audience, building on the themes of the conference. Phil helped our agents envision their successes by looking back from the end of the year. This approach helped them to realize the importance of incorporating appropriate changes into their business and personal activities. Phil effectively integrates inspirational quotations and personal antidotes into the presentation that adds insight into his message. We were very pleased with Phil’s contributions to our meetings.”
Walt Heagy, State Farm Insurance, Agency Field Consultant, Central CA


“I want to thank you for helping me improve my business. In the last two years that I have been working with you, I have gone from working 5 days a week to working two and a half days a week with more employees and I am making more money. My net worth has also doubled in that amount of time. I couldn’t have done it without you. I am enjoying the free time that I have, all the while business is continuing to grow. Thank you!”
Kathy Hilstein, The Royal Treatment House Cleaning, San Luis Obispo, Arroyo Grande, CA


“I just wanted you to know that you received some rave reviews from many of the attendees of our annual symposium that you spoke at this year. Just to give you a typical example, one person wrote: “Excellent, excellent speech by Phil Cisneros. Inspiring… for everyone. Thanks.” Others repeated such accolades as “wonderful” and “particularly good” and “great. Thank you for your great contribution!”
Thomas L. Parsons, Vice President, Marketing Department, Midstate Bank, Arroyo Grande, CA



"I have worked with Phil Cisneros for a little over a year. He has helped with a company that I manage, for out of state owners, develop a stronger team approach to operating our nursery. Through his coaching each employee has seen areas where they need to improve and create better lines of communication. With Phil’s guidance we have included our Spanish-speaking supervisors in numerous bi-lingual meetings. This has given them a stronger voice in our company, created a better understanding of the relationship between each department and further developed their ability to supervise on a higher level than before. Phil has assisted to coordinating a bi-lingual aspect of an educational program we presented to our customers in the Summer of 2004.
Phil had come into a difficult situation, working with the general manager and not the owner, in a company that had little consistent management over the past seven years. Since I have become the GM there has been numerous changes: methods of operation, new employees, old employees leaving and a stronger delineation of responsibilities. Phil’s coaching has helped in all these areas. The transitions have been smoother than if I had done them alone. We still have a long way to go but our owners have seen positive improvements in our company and we have been able to accomplish a new development program at the same time. Phil was not overwhelmed by the amount of projects we had undertaken and changes that occurred in a very short time and helped coach me through many rough spots. He has set me on course to make some very serious decisions to secure the future of Ball Tagawa."

As a result of our work with Phil, our sales have substantially increased and we are making more money with less effort than in our previous nine years of business!

What's being said about what I have done for people?

 

"Since I started working with Phil on a weekly basis I have begun to see a huge shift in my business and my personal life. Phil spends time in dialogue with me to go beyond what I already know to discovering the principles and forces shaping my individual and collective thinking and actions that manifests the intense results of anything I commit too."
Juliet Chester, Silver Lining

 

"With all that you are doing for my company and my agents in our training sessions, I know we are going to exceed all of the goals that we have set for this year. The more that I learn and grow with you, the more I can give to them like you have given to me. Thank you doesn't seem enough for what I have received. I will continue to learn and grow with you and hopefully be able to pass on so much of what I've been given."

Phil Cisneros of the Cisneros Global Ventures helped us to become business owners. Phil worked with us to formulate our business idea into a real plan of action. He then assisted us through the process of opening and growing our 1 year old thriving business: Beach House Unfinished Furniture & Design. Thank you Phil.”

Grover and Suzie Cox, Owners, Beachhouse Unfinished Furniture,  San Luis Obispo, CA


"One of my goals for 2003 after attending your annual training session was to take a great family vacation with my 18 year old son celebrating his upcoming graduation from high school with honors. Well, we decided on a wind surfing trip staying at a beach called Cabarete in Dominican Republic. It was the BEST trip anyone could ever take and I would not have even thought it possible without your coaching. Thanks for helping me realize we could do this trip!"
Michael Alamo Director, Arroyo Grande Kennedy Club Fitness, CA

"I have worked with Phil Cisneros for the past five years. During the first two and a half years of our relationship Phil coached me with a business I had owned for twelve years. (Martinson Piano Moving L.L.C.) With Phil’s coaching, I was able to stop paying rent in a facility that was too small and purchased a four thousand square foot warehouse. This allowed us to expand our Piano storage space/market creating more income to help pay for the warehouse. We purchased a second truck, added crew to run it, increased our “Piano Moving” income and created a team environment that was crucial to the continued growth and development of the company. The problems got bigger along with the company but with Phil’s unwavering support and commitment to our success we became efficient at solving them. Once I was removed from the “doingness” of the business (Martinson Piano Moving) I was freed up to start a second business with my wife, something we had been talking about doing for many months. In September of 2003 the opportunity to purchase a Dream Dinners franchise was made available to us. This seemed a perfect fit so we jumped at the chance. Going into business with my wife as a partner created challenges in our personal relationship that we either hadn’t addressed or hadn’t experienced thus far. Phil’s coaching and support for our business as well as our personal relationship was outstanding. Creating a vision for our business and family is a very powerful future to live into! Our relationship and commitment to our family has never been stronger. We are involved with the community in a way we had never imagined. From supporting our local P.T.A’s, groups raising money for cancer research, to supporting moms in greatly reducing the “What’s for Dinner dilemma” allowing them more time with their families. It’s been a very rewarding experience.
Thanks Phil for your awesome support and enthusiasm!"
