Guiding Clients into public speaking
Speaking engagements are a valuable tool for brand building and enhancing a personal or organizational reputation. Expanding into public speaking also provides networking opportunities and an additional source of revenue.
The problem? Nearly 75 percent of the population has a fear of public speaking. Hiring a speaker coach can help clients work through that anxiety using the three Ps of public speaking: purpose, preparation and practice.
Honing Your Message
What is your area of expertise?
How do you choose a topic to demonstrate and share that experience?
What is the goal of your speaking engagement?
What’s in it for the audience? What is the ONE thing you want them to take away from your talk?
Building the Presentation
Your coach can spot places to add compelling visual aids.
Finding ways to finesse the flow of the speech can polish a performance.
A second eye can help to keep the details organized and easy to follow.
