Introduction

Dear Speakers, Coaches, Authors and Business Professionals,

I wrote this book because I know you have these challenges:

  • How do I prepare a speech that people need to hear?
  • What have I earned the right to speak about?
  • What makes me unique?
  • How do I personalize my stories to connect with my audience?
  • Can I take a risk by being truly authentic?
  • What steps do I need to take to become a highly paid speaker?

I am going to answer these questions, and more. You will benefit from my twenty plus years in working with over 1,500 professional speakers. This fast, easy, problem-solving guide offers proven tips that will help you speak like a pro. . .in a short time!

"You were born an original. Don't die a copy."
John Mason

Wishing you continued success,
Coach Sandra Schrift

Fear of public speaking is #1. Death is #4. So most people would rather get a root canal and pay their taxes than speak in front of an audience.

Ask yourself, "Wouldn't it be great..."

  • to be able to stand in front of an audience of hundreds of people and hold them in complete captivation?
  • to feel confident and assured the day you're scheduled to speak before your company's executives, an association, a corporate meeting, or a local civic group?
  • to go into a presentation confident that the attendees are going to love you, be surrounded by their applause, and overhear comments afterwards, such as, "He was excellent," or, "She made a real connection with her audience"?
  • to be paid for what you love to do?

This book contains tips and techniques to become a polished presenter who speaks effectively to anyone, anywhere, with confidence.

You will learn how to:

  • Develop comfort and confidence
  • Write and deliver a winning presentation
  • Connect with your audience
  • Persuade people to act on what you say
  • Be a highly paid speaker
