Over the past 36 years, Mitch Carson has hosted successful stage events in several countries, including North America, Canada, Asia, the Middle East, and Australia, to name a few. And now Grand Bahama could be the next international staging ground for his upcoming live events.
Through his Instant Celebrity Maker model, he has trained and helped people achieve celebrity status, appearing on television, in newspapers, and other platforms. He has also prepared business CEOs and has coached some very prominent people.
“I learned to speak and share about me through Alcoholics Anonymous,” admits the 62-year-old who had developed a drinking problem in his early 20s after he lost both his parents. “I have been sober and clean for 38 years.”
Mr. Carson, who initially did it for free to help other alcoholics, was approached by someone who paid him to speak at a luncheon, and the rest is history.
"It was a passion with a purpose and then it turned into success. So, there is a lot to be made in the speaking business,” he explained. “I have trained two prime ministers and three members of the royal family in the Middle East.”
Mr. Carson has also written several books, including ‘The Silent Salesman.’ And has shared the stage with persons such as former US Presidents Bill Clinton and Donald Trump, world-renowned public speaking expert Les Brown, Mark Victor Hansen, Lord Sugar, and Sir Richard Branson at the O2 Arena in London before 40,000 people.
