Have you ever given a “20 minute” talk at a networking event that went well, but nobody actually did anything as a result of it, and everyone just moved seamlessly into the next part of the meeting?

That’s rarely down to your material, your business, or even whether you’re naturally a good speaker. Most of the time, it comes down to something much simpler: a misunderstanding of what actually makes a talk inspire action in its audience.

Most people believe a good talk is just about getting the information across clearly. Say what you do well enough, and people will remember it. In reality, information on its own rarely causes people to actually do something. 

This is where most networking talks fall down. A string of facts about the business. A standard opening that could have come from anyone in the room. A close that trails off and fizzles out, blending into the next part of the meeting. The talk goes well. Then it’s forgotten as the meeting moves on to the next item on the agenda.

That’s where The Room Is Yours comes in.

Designed by an award-winning international speaker and speaker trainer, who has delivered more than 100 “20 minute” networking talks, The Room Is Yours explores exactly why most talks don’t result in much more than some polite applause and a couple of brief questions before everyone moves on.

Instead of hoping the room does something, you learn how to build a talk that you can deliver easily and effortlessly, without notes. A talk which gets people taking action. A talk which gets you remembered long after the meeting is finished.

No scripts to memorise word for word (they rarely survive anyway). No desperately hoping the audience will do something as a result of listening to you.
Just a practical way to create a talk that works, from someone who has stood up and given his own more times than most people ever will, and taught others to do the same.

The Room Is Yours – the only question is whether you are ready to step up and own it…
