Dear Reader:
A survey from the London Times found that more than 4 out of 10 respondents listed public speaking as their number one fear – above illness, accidents, and even death.
But for many people in business, the ability to speak confidently, clearly, and persuasively in front of a group has wildly accelerated their success – whether they work for a corporation, own a small business, or freelance.
“Surveys keep confirming that presentation skills are vital to success in business,” says an article in the Undercover Recruiter. “If you can become that person that gladly steps up to talk, you will earn more, build your business, or get promoted quicker, and your personal brand will be boosted to new and greater heights.”
For instance, a Fortune 500 computer company once asked me to give an hour talk on marketing at one of their meetings. After the talk, they gave me a contract for $67,000 worth of copywriting!
There are thousands of meetings held across the globe every business day. Many require one or more attendees or guest speakers to give talks. If you’re selected, wouldn’t it be great knowing you can, with ease and confidence, deliver a scintillating presentation that will knock their socks off? Well now, you can…..
