I started working with Bill during a time in my life when I had to make some tough decisions. Having that one person who can help you look at things objectively can be worth more than a thousand hours of seminars or a hundred self-help books sitting on your bookshelf. Bill cares about his clients and their success. Bill wishes for everyone to live in passionate pursuit of their true prupose in life. Bill is there to help guide you down that path... YOUR path, not his."

"Dave's helped me open up to the possibilities of growth, broadened my thinking about what's possible and focused me to take action on managed risks."
- Ray Emery, Owner - Emery Advertising
"In 2007, we faced the challenge of re-branding our company and establishing short and long-term growth strategies for a changing market. Through Dave's consistent mediation and advice, we established common goals and were able to effectively implement a new mission, vision, and specific strategic plan targeted to help through the transition period and into future years. Dave's patient and professional attitude helped educate team members from various backgrounds and created a common shared vision for the future of the company.
We also engaged Dave Vogelpohl of Excellerate Solutions to provide individual coaching and training on business issues surrounding change management and leadership. This level of individual coaching allowed all of our staff to feel more involved in and a part of the changing business situations surrounding our transition. Employees were strengthened and value was recognized through increasing self-confidence, ownership, and individual decision making. This balanced approach to strategic thinking has left an indelible mark of improvement for key staff and is already showing a return on that investment through increased productivity and dedication."

"The real strength of this entire program is Dave Vogelpohl himself. Dave’s extensive 30-year experience with Fortune 500 companies gives him a very good perspective of other businesses, both large or small but more importantly his diplomatic personal skills gives him the ability to ask the right questions at the right time in just the right way. While not seeming to be invasive or rude he is able to articulate thoughtful questions that aim directly at the center of important issues. His friendly but professional style allows his client to think about the essence of the question rather than feel that he/she has just been criticized. This is an extremely important skill that Dave exercises well during this very introspective process. On many occasions he has allowed me to view myself, my management style, and my company in ways that few people can."
- Tom Farin, President - Pegasus Associates
“The coaching I received from Bill at Excellerate Solutions was some of the best money I have spent on educating myself on the goals I have for my career. With great style, he was able to ask all the right questions that seemed to lead me to an answer I did not realize I had inside of me. Since then, I have never been clearer in my pursuit of life. Simply put: Bill is a great coach.”
