About Us

Brian Pruitt Motivational, formerly known as HACC Motivational Speakers, was started in 1994 by its founder Brian Pruitt. Brian is a former all-American athlete, author and entrepreneur. He discovered that people could accomplish just about anything if they had the right perspective, took the right approach, lived by the right principles and walked through the appropriate process. He has traveled across the United States and other countries equipping listeners with the tools to overcome obstacles to accomplish their dreams. Audiences have been rejuvenated to run after their dreams as they discovered that those obstacles could be defeated. The response to BPM has been overwhelming! Brian Pruitt Motivational is equipped to inspire, challenge and entertain listeners on every occasion.

Brian Pruitt was a sure pick for the 1995 NFL draft before being set-back by what seemed to be tragedy. Nevertheless, while faced with this obstacle, Brian Pruitt began to forge his unique message of hope and encouragement. By drawing from his own personal experiences, Brian enlightens both youth and adults alike on how to overcome obstacles.

Brian graduated from Central Michigan University in 1995 with a Bachelor's Degree in Communications. A gifted athlete, Brian Played football for CMU and in 1994 was named First Team All-American. He has subsequently been inducted into the CMU Sports Hall of Fame. He has also been inducted into the Saginaw County Hall of Fame in Saginaw, Michigan.

In addition, he has been a regional presenter for the Youth Alive-7 Project, and has been a featured guest on several television programs. Brian has been honored as a keynote speaker for well-known ministries such as Teen Mania. He has served as a Motivational Speaker and Life Coach for youth, adults, churches, sports teams, and businesses throughout the U.S, Canada, Mexico, and Sweden.

As an author and successful entrepreneur, as well as television personality, Brian's message is reaching the world and igniting passion.
