Customer Reviews

Excellent advice for someone with a message for others

My name is Mark Nigrini and I have developed software that uses algorithms to search corporate databases for fraud and irregularities. My main marketing tool is private and public seminars. I've had practice as speaking during my tenure as a university professor. My material in and of itself is quite dull. Mr. Yarnell's book was worth every cent. He has some great pointers for speakers. I've benefitted from notes such as 'keep the talk brief', 'have a call to action', and 'end with a conclusion'. I'm usually so rushed at the end that my endings were weak. I do however disagree on two of his tips (1) use no visuals, and (2) have water handy, but don't drink it. Mr. Yarnell's best pointer was NOT to eat at luncheons where you are the guest speaker
