What our clients
say about Elton

I have personally known Elton for 20+ years. I knew his wife before they were marriedElton and I served on church staff together for little over six years, a total of 10+ years of ministry together at that church.Elton personally invited me and invested in me to go on a men's event called The Quest in 2017 Elton and I have logged thousands of hours together doing ministry and life as brothers in Christ together. One of the amazing gifts that Elton possesses, and let me assure you the list is quite long, capturing the gifts that Elton has. But the one that I feel he has the corner on the market is.
Gathering and releasing volunteers. Most of all to make them feel valued. To help the church, department, group, or the event being done to appreciate and see their value (the volunteer).My great friend Elton McMillan.

I love working with Elton, his model is something I wish to embody. In his approach to teaching anything, he really takes his time to get to know who he is teaching and then makes the content relatable. So what could've been a simple pep talk (that most would roll their eyes to) becomes a palatable life lesson. His ability to pour into those he works with really shows a character that communicates that he doesn't do what he does for selfish gain but for the highest good of those he works with.

I’ve known Elton for over 30 years and he is amongst the very top tier of leaders I have ever come across who listens well, quickly identifies the most important aspects of what is going on inside, and illuminates actionable steps for personal transformation.

“He has been such a help. It’s clear Elton Jr. has a deep sense of purpose in the work he does and he brings that into every conversation. Finding someone with the capacity to not only help clarify vision, but make it actionable and effective is rare -  he is the best of the best! ”Let me put that into more Caleb words so you know I’m not just throwing it around lol The conversations I have with dad have been a real vital source of guidance for me in navigating these past few years (really all my life haha, but especially in growing as a young man). I am always impacted by how he re-centers our talks on the real important things in life - like taking care of Sarah or valuing good and honest work. Dad really does have a gift. I’m really excited for more people to experience that 😊

Elton isn’t just a great communicator—he has a real gift for bringing people together and lifting up those around him. He’s helped me create some solid employee training tools, and he's always been a great person to bounce business ideas off of. If you're looking for a fresh perspective or need some help moving your team forward, I highly recommend reaching out to Elton. You’ll get the attention you need and the results you're after.

I was invited to a nice, formal event—a very important event, an event that I thought I could never be in or be a part of, or even get invited to. It was a very exclusive event, and I knew a lot of important people were going to be there. Before I entered, I began to pray, and I thanked GOD for the opportunity and asked God, “Please lead me with open mind, heart, and confidence.” I asked GOD to please speak to me—I was pretty lost in life and needed direction!!As I approached the scene with my beautiful wife Katherine, the first person GOD led me to was Elton. I don’t know how, but somehow we locked eye contact, introduced ourselves, and opened up to each other as if we were destined (it was GOD). We happened to know some of the same people, so we exchanged information right then and there! At the moment, I did not know Elton was hosting the event. When I seen him on stage, I felt even more thrilled—it was as if I met the main celebrity of the show! Since the day GOD sent Elton Jr. into my life, I have had a better view and understanding in life, business, and my faith in Christ! I thank GOD for leading this man into my life and continue to grow strong in the LORD together, brother.

No matter how hard we tried, our business seemed stuck. Every day felt like a struggle, not only with operations but also in our marriage. Then we connected with Elton. Through his help and insightful, strategic conversations, we experienced a breakthrough. What made the difference was Elton truly listening to our pain points and asking the right questions that led us to dynamic solutions. He took the time to engage with our entire team, guiding us through crucial conversations and helping us realign our business. The results? Our business is not just "on track"—it's thriving! We are incredibly grateful for Elton and the breakthrough he helped us achieve.
