Do you know how you show up in the world? Most people don’t. Most hand out evaluations after they give a speech or presentation but most of the questions are canned and quite honestly useless, “On a scale of 1 to 10 please rate…”
What if you knew, really knew what people out in the crowd were seeing? And the real impact it is making on your practice.
I remember my first presentation at The National Network of Estate Planning Attorneys. I thought it was a home run. I was on fire and the evaluations were off the charts. The room was packed. So naturally they invited me back. In between the 6 months of the first presentation, and the 2nd one, I met one of the Co-founders of Ridge Associates at a local Entrepreneurial Society meeting in my town. I instantly enrolled in his Speakers School and the next presentation for NNEPA people were mobbing me in the hallways (including the owners) saying “What happened to you? You were not even close to the same person you were 6 months ago on stage…can you teach ALL of our leaders how to do what you just did?”
That night at dinner one of my closest buddies at NNEPA said to me, “I didn’t know how to articulate it after your May presentation but after seeing this 2nd presentation I have to tell you that your 1st presentation was painful to watch. But, the first 5 minutes of today’s presentation…. HOLY SMOKES….NNEPA wants you back for the Spring Collegium as a KEYNOTE SPEAKER! WHAT. DID. YOU. DO? - what did you do? And can you show me how to do it too?!”
It wasn’t anything I did. I just showed up.
Trust me, get in the room. We don’t know when we will offer Speakers School again. We are fortunate enough to get Bob Gabor, my trainer, and it took a few years to get him booked. I don’t want you to wait a few years to get the single thing that I attribute ALL of my success too.
I know, I know…YOU don’t need it. That’s what I thought about myself 14 years ago. But apparently the audiences I was speaking too thought differently.
I am personally excited to sit through Speakers School again, 14 years later. Click here to join me. This will be the best investment you make in your practice in 2015. I cant wait to hear how your conversion number soar.
I want you sitting next to me.

P.S. Oh yeah…. 2 of my staff members will be sitting in THIS Speakers School WITH me. They want to get more workshops and presentations to our area power partners for my practice (nursing homes, adult daycare centers, etc.). Talk about a SURREAL moment. Your team is invited too but there are only 8 seats remaining so RESERVE your firm seats NOW.
