For many of us, November is a time for adopting an attitude of gratitude.

However, we don’t usually feel thankful when it’s time to:

deliver a presentation, go on an interview, lead a meeting or give a 30-second
commercial; these are the times I recommend calling me.

You’ll be thankful that you did because together, we’ll ensure that your communication is
clear, compelling & confident.

Obesity is one of the leading causes of death in the U.S.

Why?

Because eating excessively is a risk to your personal health.

Similarly, speaking excessively is a risk to your business health.

The goal is to make your message concise, precise and relevant—CPR.

It promises to not only increase your business health but also be a life saver!

Fear.

Most of us relate to that 4-letter word.

What do you fear?

In my business, clients tell me they fear public speaking.

Consider this—fear stands for: False Emotions Appearing Real.

Now, fear has a whole new meaning for you.

Simon says: Please stand.

Simon says: Cross your arms in front of your chest.

Simon says: Re-cross your arms placing the opposite arm on top.

What you’ve just experienced is stepping outside your comfort zone by
changing a longstanding habit.

Much of our communication reflects longstanding habits.

Problem is those habits lead to complacency, which leads to mediocrity.

Mediocre communication doesn’t increase your business.

As your speech coach, I help you step outside your comfort zone by modifying your longstanding communication habits.

The result promises to be a sound investment.

Your competitors hire me to ensure that every time they speak, they do it with

polish, professionalism and pizzazz!

Why haven’t you?

To communicate well is to S.P.E.A.K.:

This means being: Succinct, Prepared, Engaging, Articulate & Knowledgeable.

Why talk when you can speak?

A patient goes to see the doctor and says “I sound lousy.”

Doctor asks: “What are your symptoms?”

Patient says: I’d rather jump off a bridge than speak in public;

my favorite words are: um, uh, ya’ know & like;

people look dazed & confused when I speak;

my 30-second commercial takes 30 minutes.

Finally the doctor wakes up, apologizes for snoring, and says: “The diagnosis is communicationitis;

the prescription is working with Dale Klein.”

Most of us strive to be healthy and fit; why should our communication be any different?

I’m in the business of communication check-ups.

It starts with your eyes to ensure you have a clear vision of your message,

then moves down to your ears to ensure you hear feedback when you communicate, then we look at your communication cholesterol to cut down on verbal fillers, hesitations, and words that cause clutter.

This results in making sure that the pulse of your communication is alive and well!

Some of us still feel like a kid at heart.

Now that it’s September, we hear the slogan “It’s back to school time” but this isn’t just kid stuff because we never stop learning.

When you’re well-schooled in how to communicate with your staff, colleagues, clients and prospects, you go right to the head of the class and I can help you get there.

When you speak, do you start with a platitude or an attitude?

When you speak, do you come across as beat up or upbeat?

When you speak, are you just getting through your message or getting your
message through?

This is the power of questions.

The powerful speaker is remembered; are you?
