In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Diane DiResta discuss:The value of speaking both in person and virtually.Common mistakes lawyers make when speaking.Understanding your audience.What to do when you’re nervous (and why those nerves are selfish).   Key Takeaways:Fit is often about culture, not about a skill mismatch.It doesn’t matter if you are a fast speaker, you want to leave space in between - remember the pause. That is where the information you are sharing is going to land with the audience.Speaking is 90% preparation and 10% delivery - the price you charge is for more than the 1 hour of your time to give the presentation.Group things into 3 - it is more memorable. Stories also are memorable and touch the heart.   "Speaking is one of the most powerful and cost-effective marketing tools you can have.  It's like test driving a car, they get to see you in action." —  Diane DiResta Get a free copy of Steve’s book “Sales-Free Selling” here: www.fretzin.com/sales-free-selling   Thank you to our Sponsors!
