GET TO THE DAMN POINT

GET TO THE DAMN POINT WITH A COMPLIMENTARY, HALF HOUR, CONSULTATION!

THE FIRST SALE IS SELLING YOURSELF

Communicating efficiently and effectively is challenging but when not done well it causes sales to be lost and meetings to drag on. With my support, sales professionals can gain confidence in their communications by learning advanced presentation, media and speaking skills to succinctly and emotionally connect to your clients, virtually or in person, every single time.

The Sound of Poor Communications

How bad can it be?

Bet you turn it down before 37 seconds pass.

SAVE ME FROM SOUNDING LIKE THIS!

Do your meetings feel like this?

Are people reading Power Points? Rambling without focus? Lacking energy and enthusiasm? Losing their place? Constantly saying "ah, um, well, like, but, so?" Clearly unprepared and winging it? Boring? Talking way too long? Not getting to the damn point? Wasting time? Not connecting with the audience ?

Is this YOU?

Are You Drowning in Numbers?

If you are carbed out on pie charts, so are they. Data dumping is a common problem and the fastest way to have people bring pillows to your presentation. Facts and figures can glaze eyeballs and brains whether that's a meeting, sales, fundraising, speaking to clients, or anytime you are communicating.

Is this YOU?

Does Media Make You Nervous?

Your throat tightens, your voice cracks, you stammer all over the place, your train of thought left without you and you can't seem to string two sentences together. Sound familiar? That sound is your message being killed. In most cases, you won't be given the questions ahead of time so you have to learn to razzle dazzle on your feet.

Is this YOU?

I am SO ready to improve all of this!

What's the value of a great presentation? Whatever deal you are trying to win.

What's the cost of a poor presentation? Same thing.

We are meeting more now than ever before and more people are showing up for those meetings.

It's not the length of the meetings that's killing time and productivity, it's because your team hasn't been trained about how to speak, to engage an audience and GET TO THE DAMN POINT that's the problem. It extends to everything in your business, especially the parts that are client-facing.

Anybody can spew a line of bullshit for an hour off the top of their head. But creating content that truly counts and impacts, that's a whole other story. You have to cut it out at the source if you want to get your time back.

That means you have to attack this from the inside, not the outside.

Ideas like "have a standing meeting; a two pizza meeting; invite only those who need to be there" are attacking from outside. Those won't fix it. That's like being on the upper deck of the Titanic with a bucket instead of going below decks and patching the hole.

I'm helping you patch the hole.

BS CUTTING 101 RIGHT HERE

"Tell me a fact and I’ll learn. Tell me a truth and I’ll believe. But tell me a story and it will live in my heart forever."- an old proverb

Stories are the connective tissue of humans, yet many still don't use them in their business communications. Or, they don't know how.

I have told tens of thousands of stories in my career and I want to help you to be able to touch an audience on an emotional level and keep them riveted to what you are saying.

Not just any old story will do. It's discovering what stories fit which situations, where to find them and learning how best to tell them.

Don't take my word for it. Steve Jobs said: "The most powerful person in the world is the storyteller. The storyteller sets the vision, values and agenda of an entire generation that is to come."

I WANT TO LEARN STORYTELLING!

HOW TO BE A MEDIA DARLING

I have trained over 100 journalists and photojournalists in my time. The first time a reporter goes live, they are just as nervous as you would be and I taught them how to overcome that. The same way I am going to teach YOU!

You can also use the News as a PR tool but to do it you have to know how to cultivate a newsroom, who to contact, how to write a News Release that will get attention, what you need to provide to draw them in and so much more.

Plus, it's not always good news that will lead them to knock on your door. I take you inside and reveal the dirty little tricks the media can, and will, use on you. How do I know these? I've been the person who has used them.

You are going to learn how to become the story for free and not be the commercial. That means more eyeballs on your message.

Think about it... what do YOU do during the commercials?

The only solution I offer is that I give you the tools, train you and then you practice your ass off until you become more comfortable with it.

Follow what I give you, take it to heart, put in the work and it will work for you. Half ass it and...well, you know.

Sample Lesson From The Course

It's one of my personal favorites that will make you impress yourself, and others, by using it.

I WANT THE REST OF THIS COURSE!

How is this Course different than other Public Speaking Courses?

No one is doing it with the direction I take.

It's all time focused, not on the amount you speak but how not doing it well eats up seconds and minutes rapidly.

You could speak for 60 minutes and still not say anything or you could speak for 5 minutes and blow people away. The length doesn't matter, the content and delivery does.

It's about getting your message across, period.

Other programs offer solutions that will attack this from the outside, with little impact whereas I attack this from the inside.

They will recommend things like "everyone stand during the meeting"; "Make it a two pizza meeting, having no more in there than two pizzas will feed"; or "invite only those that need to be there" (duh!).

But if you dont train everyone how to be a better communicator then only those who need to be there will be standing while eating pizza AND STILL LOSING TIME to a poor presenter and gaining nothing.

In TV News we had one and a half minutes to tell a story. You learn how to GET TO THE DAMN POINT.

That doesn't mean everything you do is shorter, it just means it's tighter, leaner. Puts more meat in your meetings and all you do.

This course makes you a more proficient, efficient and effective communicator.

Plus, I am offering you media training that typically doesn't come with Speaker Training. I have been told by many that this alone is worth the value of the course.

And I am teaching you how to be a better virtual communicator. I get it, as a professional speaker, it's damned hard to be engaging virtually. You ready to change that?

You would have to hire several people to get the material I have put into this course and that would take more time and certainly come at a much higher price.

Even if you got training from well known speaking organizations you have to consider the amount of time spent going to those meetings plus cost! And they still won't cover all I do.

Typically, in those enviroments, even if you hustle, it will take you at least 2 years to get decent at speaking and it's a crap shoot on whether you hit a group with qualified helpers.

I have seen many who have been in those organizations for YEARS who STILL don't speak well.

And the idea that you had Basic Public Speaking...forget it. Basic Public Speaking doesn't even fix the filerl words (ah, um) problem. It's BASIC.

Do you want to go into an extraordinary opportunity armed with only "basic" skills? Where else in your life do you apply that logic?

My course is different because I teach you how to connect emotionally with an audience and GET TO THE DAMN POINT!

Who else can benefit from this? I'm not a "speaker."

"I'm not a speaker" is complete bullshit. Yes, you are. If you communicate with others to provide information or attempt to persuade them, you are a speaker. If you speak or present ideas at a meeting, you are a speaker. If you do fundrasing for a nonprofit, you are a speaker. If you are a salesperson, you are a speaker. Whatever you do, you are a speaker at some point.

Nonprofit organizations:

You need two life bloods: money and volunteers. I have been told, by several, that the inability of the staff, and volunteers, to be able to clearly and effectively communicate thier mission, is a huge problem that has cost them both of those life bloods.

Train your team. This why I offer HUGE discounts on bulk licenses to this course to nonprofits.

My favorite stories to cover were nonprofits because it was good news all the time. I got to help the helpers help others and I still get to in a whole new way!

CHARITYVILLAGE.COM says:

Giving effective presentations can contribute greatly to a nonprofit’s success.

In fact, presentations serve as an important avenue for organizations to share their stories, build partnerships, garner community support, and acquire new donors or volunteers.

Although most nonprofits recognize the need to take advantage of such opportunities, their presentations can sometimes fall flat.

One main challenge nonprofits face is that they need to prove their value in a way other industries don’t.

For Entreprenuers, Small Businesses and Corporations:

At the very least all of your key players need this (but so does everyone on your team!) to start saving you TIME which saves you money. But, you might not believe this cliche' so lets try this:

ENTREPRENEUR.COM says:

You may be presenting company financials to your top employees or investors.

You may present your business’ services to an interested buyer.

You may even give a speech about entrepreneurship at a speaking event.

In all these cases, clarity, conciseness, confidence and poise are all key.

FORBES says:

Every employee contributes to your brand, so it’s important to have a company where people communicate well.

An employee who has a poorly communicated interaction with a customer can negatively impact the brand.

Strong communication skills are beneficial on an individual and organizational basis.

Unclear messages can lead to confusion, both internally and externally with customers.

SCORE.ORG says:

Public speaking helps build your brand. By getting your name and your business name out there in the community at speaking events, you help to build awareness for your business.

It builds your reputation as an expert. When people hear you speak as an authority, they believe you’re an expert in your industry. This can help boost your reputation among potential customers and clients.

It enhances your confidence and your sales skills. Even if you have salespeople promoting your business, as the business owner, you are an integral part of “selling” your products and services to the world. If you’re not comfortable selling or engaging with others, public speaking can help. The more you speak, the more confidence you’ll gain, until eventually, you’ll feel comfortable talking to just about anyone.

Other reasons: Want to ace a job interview? Advance in your company? Have better communications with co-workers?

The list goes on.

All you have to do is search this topic on the web and you will find tons of reasons why, but no one else, and I mean no one, will teach you how to GET TO THE DAMN POINT doing this.

Who is Lewis D. Chaney?

What other services do you offer, like Coaching, Consulting or Speaking?

Nicole Lowe-Matthew 25 AIDS Services

"I learned more in a 5 minute presentation from him than I have in many other storytelling webinars combined."

Travis Johnson- The Nonprofit Architect Podcast

"Lewis not only practices what he preaches but he teaches in a way that anyone can implement these time saving techniques and everyone can Get To The Damn Point!"

Dr. Ash Javer- Missouri Institute of Regenerative Health

He took a pre-designed medical sales presentation and made it his own, adding stories and humor to really help drive conversions. The more Lewis was allowed to shape the material to his own, the higher the conversion rates were, reaching an average 75%, putting him on par with the top presenter in the whole, nationwide, company.
