Wonder What It Takes to Go From
a 'Good' Speaker to a GREAT Speaker?
What If You Knew What the Speaking Coaches Knew?
Question for you... Why would you learn how to be a better speaker from anyone other than someone experienced at taking people from good to great? Their experience gives them better tools and proven results. It just doesn't make sense. If you wanted to learn how to fly, would you want to learn from someone right out of flight school... or from someone who has logged thousands of hours teaching others?
It Gets Even Better.
Not only can you get inside their minds, you can see the coaching they give and how it transforms speakers, instantly. If you're not getting a high level of insight, you're just reinforcing bad habits. Those habits will now take you TWICE as long to "unlearn" ...if you ever DO unlearn them! You must recognize what's wrong before you can change it. Why even risk learning with the wrong tools? Get the best secrets and the right tools to get results NOW.
Who Are Craig & Darren? Out of 25,000 contestants, from 14 countries, both Craig Valentine (1999) and Darren LaCroix (2001) were named the World Champion of Public Speaking. They are both internationally known keynote speakers who joined forces to coach other speakers.

Why Are Their Secrets So Valuable?
Results. Every year, the best speakers in the world seek coaching from Craig and Darren because they get results. It's one thing to be a good speaker... it's another to be a great speaking coach. They've both been coaching new speakers, professionals, executives, and celebrity speakers since 2001. They've seen it all, and they know how to make the changes that make the difference between connecting and not connecting with an audience. Craig and Darren's tools & strategies get results. Bottom line: the people they coach come back for more.
"Using the stage to make characters come to life is a powerful -- ~ Vikas Jhingran, 2007 World Champion of Public Speaking |
Why is This Program So Different?
There are many programs out there that teach new ideas. We know of no others that show you "live coaching." It's powerful to see how their tools and strategies are actually applied. In the 7-Day OWN THE STAGE Mini-Course, you will get a chance to coach along side Darren and Craig. What a great reinforcement of all the secrets you'll learn in this course! Darren and Craig developed 30 Foundations that are required to OWN THE STAGE. And, they spent years creating a very unique 49-Point Coaching "Checklist." It truly is 'applied' knowledge that gets results. Isn't that what you want?
"I thought I was an experienced speaker until attending this seminar. ~ Karen Burgess / Edmonton, AB, Canada |
What is a 7-Day Mini-Course?
Are you busy? If you answered "YES," this program is designed for you! Some people don't have hours to sit and watch long lessons. Each day, you'll receive a link via email that will direct you to a secret web page with a 10-minute educational video (advanced skills must be taught through a visual medium) jam-packed with the tools and secrets needed to get you from good to GREAT. You can watch them on the website or download them to your iPod or computer. The first lesson will be emailed to you immediately, and the video links DON'T EXPIRE, so you can watch the lessons over and over -- as many times as you'd like!
