What You Can Expect From Arthur?
Are you looking for something more impactful than the typical corporate keynote?
For over 25 years, I have maintained a full booking calendar by delivering engaging, high impact presentations that resonate with professional audiences. I understand what event planners need: reliability, clarity, and a seamless experience from our initial conversation through the final applause. My commitment to excellence extends well beyond the stage.
I am also available for spring engagements, offering a timely option for seasonal conferences and corporate events.
While many entertainers make ambitious promises, I focus on delivering measurable engagement, elevated energy, and a memorable experience your audience will continue talking about long after the event concludes.
As one client shared:
"I am hilarious, with a professional, polished stage presence. I engage the audience with high energy, and there is never a dull moment."
WHY CHOOSE
AMAZING ARTHUR?
When it comes to making your event truly unforgettable, I bring more than just a presentation. I bring an experience. With over 25 years of professional performance behind me, I deliver high energy programs that seamlessly blend magic, comedy, and mentalism into one powerful and engaging keynote.
Versatile Presentations
I tailor every program to align with your event goals, combining impactful storytelling with meaningful, real world insights that captivate, motivate, and resonate with your audience.
Proven Expertise
As a keynote speaker trusted by organizations across Nebraska and beyond, I draw from decades of experience in leadership, communication, and live performance to deliver substance as well as entertainment.
Unmatched Engagement
For organizations seeking more than a traditional speaker, I offer a distinctive approach that fuses professional speaking with interactive, memorable moments that command attention and sustain energy throughout the program.
Whether I am speaking to corporate professionals, families, or students, my focus remains the same: to create genuine connection, intelligent humor, and high level engagement. My programs are not simply performances. They are immersive experiences designed to inspire, energize, and leave a lasting impression long after the event concludes.
If you are ready to elevate your next event, I would be honored to work with you.
Public speaking is consistently ranked as the number one fear in the world. Above heights, above flying, above spiders. And yet, communication is the skill that changes everything.
As part of my work as a speaker, coach, and performer, I help people face that fear directly. That is why I am an active member of two Toastmasters International clubs here in Omaha, Nebraska. I believe in the Toastmasters mission, and I believe in their system.
Toastmasters is not just a club. It is a structured, repeatable framework for building confidence, clarity, leadership, and composure under pressure. It provides a safe place to practice what most people avoid. Repetition builds comfort. Comfort builds control. Control builds confidence. That is the formula.
Members learn to organize their thoughts, speak with purpose, lead meetings, give constructive feedback, and grow in a supportive environment. It is practical. It is affordable. It works. With thousands of clubs worldwide in corporate offices, community centers, universities, and professional organizations, there is likely one near you.
If you have questions about Toastmasters in Omaha or anywhere else, I am always happy to talk. Helping people find their voice is not just part of my profession. It is part of my mission.

David Gillis and Arthur Fratelli
February 21 and 22, 2026 in Omaha, Nebraska
Unlock your potential and elevate your life by becoming 1% better every day. The 1% Better Conference is a transformative event designed for individuals and professionals eager to improve their skills, mindset, and performance.
The 1% Better Conference
Co-Founded by David Gillis and Me
Omaha, Nebraska
In 2026, my colleague David Gillis and I are launching something we have talked about for years: The 1% Better Conference. Based in Omaha, Nebraska, this is our first year bringing the vision to life.
The idea is simple, but powerful. Focus on improving ourselves and the world around us a little at a time. Not overnight transformation. Not motivational noise. Real growth. One percent better.
We have assembled an exceptional lineup of speakers covering mindset, leadership, resilience, performance psychology, and personal development. David and I serve as hosts and organizers, alongside a diverse group of thought leaders who bring insight and practical tools attendees can immediately apply in their lives and careers.
We created this conference to bring together high-level speakers, thoughtful leaders, and driven individuals who care about growth, resilience, performance, and personal responsibility. It is designed to be positive, practical, and community driven. This is not a sit back and scroll your phone kind of event. This is a show up, engage, and elevate kind of room.
David and I believe growth happens faster in community, so we built one.
What Makes It Different
We focus on actionable improvement.
We carefully curate speakers who combine credibility with clarity.
We foster meaningful connection through interactive elements like our Hype Boxes, where attendees write encouragement and appreciation for one another throughout the event.
We are intentionally building a culture where people raise each other up instead of tearing each other down.
2026 is our first year. We are energized, grateful, and fully committed to building this into a long-term movement.

A Personal Note
This conference matters to me.
After years of traveling the country as a speaker and performer, I have seen how powerful a room can be when the right people gather with the right intention. David and I built this conference to intentionally create that kind of room.
If you have questions about the event, partnership opportunities, or future conferences, I would love to connect.
We are just getting started.

Hired for an event and what a professional and amazing performer. He was on time for our event, gave an "amazing" performance, and we couldn't believe how reasonable his rate was for such a great show. Hands down the best entertainer in Omaha and would not hesitate to higher him again. Easy 5 Stars!
We just had Arthur and his crew out for our Fall Kickoff and could not have been happier! They were top notch and wonderful to work with, the face painting and balloon art was AMAZING! We will definitely be using them again for our next event!!!
Laugh, Learn, and Be Inspired with me.
