Hiring Gary
Rifkin as a speaking coach was the best decision I’ve made in the last
several years. His
work – helping me craft a keynote-level speech – opened the doors to
countless speaking venues. My
new speech became the foundation for my first book.
Gary’s ability to advise, consolidate ideas, and
build great openings and closings has provided incredible results; his
counsel has proven invaluable to me.

No matter how much expertise you have, sharing that expertise with an
audience can be career enhancing or career limiting. Working
with Gary Rifkin will provide expert guidance on your own speeches and
presentations.
You might want to be
coached by Gary Rifkin if…
- You’ve
been bored by a speaker and don’t want to do that to someone else.
- You
want your audience to do something significant with the information
you’ve given them.
- You
want to look sharp, confident and professional when speaking.
- You
are a subject matter expert whose presentations need polish.
- You
have great content but the audience doesn’t always seem wowed.
- You’ve
got a book or manuscript and want to turn it into a memorable speech.
- You
want to impress your audience – large or small.
- You
are a principal in a professional services firm who needs to look as
powerful in front of an audience as you do in your practice.
- You
would like to use presentations as a way to build your business.
- You
want to enhance your skillset by becoming a more polished presenter.
- Your
job requires that you give presentations; advancement in your job
requires that you give presentations well!
- You’re
more passionate about your topic than your audience is.
- Someone
has told you that your lack of presentation skills is holding you back.
By the end of your sessions with
Gary…
- You’ll
connect with your audience from the moment they first see you and hold
their attention until you have delivered a powerful, call-to-action
close.
- You’ll
know and use an attention-getting opening which will engage your
audience.
- You’ll
use stories expertly to anchor your messages.
- You’ll
have practiced strong, deliberate delivery which allows the audience to
catch every word.
- You’ll
know how to control the “butterflies” so that you use that nervous
energy to your advantage.
- You’ll
be speaking confidently and competently to large audiences who respond
enthusiastically.
Working with
Gary probably won’t get the results you expect if…
- You
are adverse to receiving and applying developmental feedback.
- You
truly believe that you can’t teach an old dog new tricks.
- Your
boss is making you do this.
- You’ve
been there; you’ve done that.
- You
already know that you won’t do the work.
- You’d
rather spend your time and money on absolutely anything else.
Your
coaching sessions with Gary may be formal or informal. They
can be done by phone or in person. Your financial investment
will depend on the intended outcomes of the coaching. Some
clients will do a few hours of coaching to prepare for an upcoming
speech. Others will choose to have a longer term relationship
with a series of coaching sessions designed to enhance skills and build
confidence. Whatever form your coaching relationship takes,
you can be assured that your approach to speaking will never be the
same.
