2021 has been a HUGELY successful year four our clients.  Presenters have landed contracts with the BBC, Channel 4, ITV and have been signed up by top agents.  

We've also seen our clients land some incredible meetings with TV Channels as we help and advise them on who to contact - new clients are currently in discussions with commissioners about presenting their own shows from documentaries to factual formats.  

We've helped complete novices land contracts with all the major channels over the last few months, as our success continues and more and more people come and work with us. 

So a big shout out to clients we've got work for, who are in talks about exciting work, and also to those who are also brave enough to wait.  We are here for you.  We will support you.  And we are your family!  

Let's keep smashing 2021 together!

Big congratulations to Lee Juggurnauth who is the new A Place in the Sun presenter.  He joins another client of ours Scarlette Douglas as the new presenter on the new series.  Lee came on our Fast Track Presenter Training programme and then we did a 1 to 1 with him, and a couple of career consultations...and along the way we also bagged him some presenting work with the lieks of Samsung.

Huge congratulations to Lee.  He's such a joy to work with, and such a great guy!  So we always knew he was going to do well!  

Media Training:  

The media is an exciting place to be, and if thought about in the right way can really help to maximise the potential of your business. 

We want you to be excited about your media opportunity, and make sure that you get out of it what you want.  

Media training is often sterile, old-fashioned and out-of-date.  Viewers are now wise to people who are ‘media trained’ – instead they want authentic speakers who communicate with personality.

Our media training courses are personality based – we will help you find and develop your own style and voice.  

We also help with your messaging, and all the other tricks of the trade we have perfected over our 20 years experience in the media.  

So if you want media training that is dynamic, current and gets results get in touch.

VIDEO MARKETING FOR YOUR VIDEOS:  

We are experts in helping you and your business shine.  

We love helping businesses big and small with their video marketing.  First we get to know your business, your customer and also take a close look at your competitors.  

Then we discuss what results you want your marketing to achieve and how you want to come across as a business – is it to drive sales, raise awareness, part of a rebrand etc?  

And then we will write your script and produce you on the day.  We encourage a lot of our clients to go on camera and be the face of their business.  So we work with you on developing your style and personal brand and make sure that it works with the brand of your business.  

So if you want to come across in the most engaging way, and have a bespoke video marketing programme designed to suit you and your needs get in touch!  

Video Marketing – helping you and your business shine.   

Lots of businesses are now turning to zoom or other online platforms to do their presentations.  Zoom is akin to TV – speaking into a camera, and like any form of communication isn’t easy.

We love all the training work we do with businesses to make them better communicators in this space. 

This week we have done a 1 day presentation skills training session for 8 clients.  They all have to deliver online learning programmes in the education sector and we worked with them to challenge the way they use the platform – ensuring their presentations are unique, on brand and have the maximum impact.   

And we are also running 2 sessions for business people who are presenting their industry awards next week – 1 is delivering a speech and the other is the host of the event.  We’ll be working with them on their script, their delivery and also making sure they exceed expectations. 

So if you want to be the best communicator in your zooms, online webinars, or presentations get in touch and we’ll design a training session that is totally bespoke to you.  

Have you watched Michelle Obama’s recent speech on YouTube?  She’s taken to video once more to speak to a nation, and to encourage them to vote for Joe Biden.  But did her speech have the desired effect?  Did it have the impact needed?  Will it bring about change?  Sadly we think not and here’s why:

1. IT FORGOT THE POWER OF A CLEAR PURPOSE:  When writing a speech always think of what your purpose is, and have this as the driving force.  We feel Michelle’s purpose here was to discredit Trump – and therefore this speech should have focussed in on hard facts as to why Trump cannot be trusted as a leader, rather than emotional prose.  A different type of script here would have been more effective.
2. DURATION:  Social media is a great platform for video messaging.  It has no rules when it comes to duration, unlike TV.  Here Michelle spoke for 24 minutes.  24 minutes is a long time, and a big ask for a viewer.  We think she could have been more ‘creative’ in how she used the time.  Michelle needed this video to go viral, and its lack of brevity we feel will mean that her desired audience won’t watch.
3. THINK OF YOUR AUDIENCE:  When writing a speech you need to write it for your audience.  Who are they?  Who do you want it to appeal to?  How do they like to be communicated with?  How can you best engage them?  We feel Michelle’s speech probably appealed more to her existing audience – the loyal Obama supporters, of which we are one, rather than a new audience that she wanted and needed to engage with here if she was to be in with a chance of convincing the right type of person not to vote for Trump.
4. EMOTIONS VS FACTS:  Appealing to the emotions is a great way to draw your audience in.  But once they are indeed in we feel facts can prove to have the most impact.  The endless evidence that Trump is a liar and an unsuitable president that was available for Michelle to use got instead overshadowed by an appeal for emotional engagement from her viewer - and we feel this was a major oversight.
5. THE GOOD BIT – MICHELLE CONNECTS AND SHE CARES:  Michelle is a great public speaker.  This was a pre-scripted presentation – every word carefully written and analysed.  When delivering a script it’s important to connect with it – speaking from the heart and not from the head.  Michelle is great at this.  She connects with every word, she uses every word, and this is why she is such a good presenter.
