Presentations, Public Speaking, Professional Speaking, Speaker Peter Fogel   Award-Winning Humorist, National Speaker Association presenter and veteran performer of over 20 television shows… "How an Insecure, Hyper Kid with a Lisp Went Onto to Become an In Demand Public Speaker Getting Paid Upwards of $6500 a Speech..." "I don’t care what background, education, or fears you have that might be holding you back. I can show you how to captivate ANY audience so you can earn industry respect, expert status, and dominate your niche market." ~Peter "The Reinvention Guy" Fogel – National Speakers Association Speaker, Author, Seminar Leader. From the office of Peter Fogel Delray Beach, Florida 33446 Dear Public Speaker, I remember the exact date when I got the call: March 12th. That’s when I was chosen to give a presentation at the New York City Convention of the National Speakers Association. On that day hundreds of top-gun speaker/entrepreneurs  will descend upon The Big Apple to network and learn from each other.  Men and women who earn anywhere from six-figures to million dollars a year (or more). I can tell you from experience, it’s one thing to speak in front of corporate or association audiences…. it’s a whole new ball game to speak in front of your colleagues who are members of this exclusive club. My heart pounded in anticipation of the big event. Thoughts swirled around in my head…   Was I up to the task…? Can I impress them…? Will they scrutinize my platform skills…? Thinking back over this 30 year journey that led me to the huge, opportunity, I chuckled to myself as I realized it wasn’t always like this. That’s because early on I had doubts and challenges about my reaching any speaking success what so ever. And it was all due to… A Speech Impediment That Haunted Me for Years! Back then, I was skinny, hyper kid always trying to get the attention of my family and other kids with my sense of humor. Unfortunately I would always fall flat on my face because I had a noticeable, “Say it,  don’t spray it,” lisp.  Every time I would tell a joke the school kids would LAUGH—but at me, not with me! And even though it was a difficult time for me, I still NEVER gave up my dream of entertaining and speaking in front of audiences. Eventually I went to speech therapy and came to a realization: If I was ever going to get over my fears, blossom and become a powerful communicator it-was-going-to-be-up- to-me. Unrelenting, I made it my goal. Through discipline and a strong burning desire to win, I DID overcome my speech impediment. In fact, I went on to have a fulfilling career that included doing Shakespeare on stage! Not only that, but I also went on and became a working comedian in clubs and colleges and on late night talk and comedy programs like Carolines Comedy Hour, Evening at the Improv, Comic Strip Live and scores of commercials As an audience warm-up I worked on over 22 sitcoms like Married with Children, Men Behaving Badly, Whoopi w/ Goldberg, Carolines Comedy Hour, Comic Strip Live. Economic Times are Tough! Have You Positioned Yourself for SUCCESS?! When I made the transition to speaking at corporations and associations across America I soon realized the pay was astronomically higher than in the comedy world. I remember a friend asking me to give a motivational speech on the healing power of humor for his company… A marketing client of mine asked me to speak at a seminar on the art of copywriting to his sales force… Before I knew it, word spread of my public speaking abilities and one speaking engagement led to another. Yes, I was following the money train and having the time of my life with public speaking!   Who wouldn't? I got to travel around the country, all expernses paid. Not to mention A) I making a positive change in people’s lives with my message and content and B) I was earning between $4500-$6500  per speech! (CHA-CHING!) Please know I told all of this NOT to brag, but to show you what can be accomplished with this much in-demand skill. The only difference between you and me is that I am out there doing it. But here's the best part: If you allow me to guide you, I can help you get the same results! Listen: If you want to boost your own career, brand yourself, and increase your fees… or if you're a service professional who needs more customers and clients to buy your products (and services) then take these words to heart: Clients will hire you over your competition for your ability to communicate your ideas succinctly and how you create solutions for their problems. Make no mistake: The entrepreneurs who THRIVE today and tomorrow are the ones who are considered experts in their industry by their clients! It's a FACT! During good times (and especially bad times) experts have always been paid higher than generalists. Think you’re NOT an expert? Well, think again! If you have passion for your subject, do your due diligence on the niche subject (reading and writing about it…) and know MORE than your audience, then guess what? You’re an expert in your client’s mind! And the secret to quickly creating that expert status is to learn how to take a commanding presence in front of your audience with effective public speaking. And cast away any insecurities you might have away. If you can speak one one one with someone, then you can absolutely learn to become a persuasive public speaker. The good news is that...
