- Enriched the message of my ministry with a new brand, “Strength for the Soul.”
- Improved my marketing text to make my speeches and books more appealing.
- Learned how to partner with churches and gain repeat bookings.
- Launched high-quality newsletters to reach leaders and readers (see before & after).
I’d recommend Rob to any author or speaker who is seeking to take their message to a higher level.”

"Rob Eagar's expertise was a ray of light shining through the cluttered opinions of how to promote a book. He helped me determine the most important marketing tasks and how to plan for the future. Most of all, Rob took a personal and sincere interest in my book's message. Thanks Rob, lets do it again with my next book!”

"Working with Rob Eagar made me a lot more focused on my purpose and passion than ever before. Through strategic exercises and coaching, he really helped me to hone in on my message and refine it. The process took work and it wasn't easy, but once I got through to the other side, the rewards have been numerous!
Rob also helped me improve my website and make it more user-friendly and informative. In addition, he helped me develop a growing monthly newsletter, prepare speaking messages more effectively, and place me with a literary agent who is opening up new book projects.
Wildfire Marketing is an enormous help to anyone who is seeking to be gentle, but wise, in their dealings with the business and ministry sides of writing and public speaking."

"I’ve been speaking and writing for over 18 years, but learned mostly by trial and error. After working with Rob Eagar, however, I learned more in a few months than I had learned in years. My confidence and professionalism quickly improved, and the feedback that I receive now is better than ever. Through Rob’s help, I discovered how to:
- Create keynote talks that fulfill leader’s goals and generate referrals.
- Cut my message preparation time in half and work more efficiently.
- Drive more traffic to my website.
- Network with other speakers to increase speaking engagements and product awareness.
Rob had answers to questions that I had been wrestling with for a long time. He is a wealth of industry knowledge and advice. I recommend his services to speakers and writers at any level."
