Course Description
A new and exciting world is opening up.
We’re at the dawn of a new style of communication.
The new way to get your message out into the world.
Your ability to reach people across the world has never been stronger.
Virtual speaking is the way of the future and you can be at the forefront of this advancing movement.
Zoom is the leader of this new movement and it is going to be your greatest ally in getting your message to audiences worldwide.
Just imagine it.
Reaching mentors, partners and clients anywhere in the world as you sit in the comfort of your own home.
Working at the time that suits you because the time zone differences mean your audience are always ready to go when you are.
Saving a TON of money on travel and accommodation expenses.
It all makes sense right?
Anyone with a laptop and an internet connection can access this new movement.
With the click of the button you have just created your stage and anyone can sit down and listen to you.
Here’s the thing though:
Just because it’s simple, doesn’t mean it’s easy.
With more people entering the virtual speaking space, it is getting harder to stand out.
If it’s 6am on the other side of the world when you are speaking, why should someone wake up early to listen to you?
When that camera turns on, do you know what you’re doing?
Yes, you can address the world from your bedroom, but it can feel pretty isolating when the world doesn’t answer at the other end of the line.
Zoom is changing as fast as the movement is developing. You need to be fast to keep up.
Are you making the most of Zoom’s versatile features, or just hoping you don’t accidentally mute yourself at the wrong time?
You may have been used to delivering your content in person, but now how do you convert what you’ve done for years into the virtual format?
Does that cold bright light of the webcam give you the fear every time it shines?
I remember how speaking used to look for me.
Getting up at 5am so I could get the first train or plane to the city I’d been hired to speak in.
Checking in with my ticket sales on a daily basis to see if I’d managed to even cover the room hire costs for my own events.
Looking at a room of five people and thinking “have I put in all that effort just for this?”.
Even though I was passionate about speaking and inspiring people, it was incredibly tiring at times.
I must admit that the COVID-19 lockdown really helped me see the light.
I started a Facebook group for speakers as a side project which quickly became my most important project.
I found I had picked up so many skills from speaking and creating online content that I could share to help people flourish even in this most difficult time.
I quickly amassed a list of enthusiastic, driven clients…all of whom I have still yet to meet physically.
I did all that despite not being allowed to leave the house.
My business was able to successfully pivot during a global emergency and grow during a recession because of one thing.
Zoom.
Zoom grew my network.
Zoom was how my clients introduced themselves to me.
Zoom was how I shared my knowledge and expertise.
If that doesn’t convince you how important Zoom is, I don’t know what will!
In this course you are going to learn how to master this versatile platform in just three modules.
Module 1: The Tech
You’ll lose the fear of the features and increase the versatility and professionalism of your speeches and presentations.
- No more worrying about which buttons do what, especially in the heat of the moment on an important call.
- Learn what buttons you can actually ignore to make your life easier.
- Take away the confusion and noise and identify a few key features that are the only things you need to know about and use.
- Have more fun and engaging meetings and workshops
- Learn why you don’t even have to be live on Zoom to use it to share your knowledge and expertise (yes you can be sleeping or watching Netflix and Zoom is still helping you out!).
Module 2: The Content
You’ll get your message heard and stand out in your industry with your engaging and creative content presentation.

Module 3: The Delivery

- Make people who have never met you feel like they know you
- Develop fast rapport with people sitting on the other side of the world
- Stand out from your competition as a confident and effective communicator
- Win the high-stakes scenarios such as contests and pitches
It took a lot of training to prepare for this moment.
I had been speaking online for five years and using Zoom for two years when the pandemic hit.
There’s no way I could know how important those skills could become, but I was able to adapt and thrive fast thanks to those years spent becoming familiar and confident speaking online.
You don’t have that luxury of preparing for the future, as it is already here.
What you do have is the opportunity to get your nose ahead of the pack.
You will have to learn these skills sooner or later.
You don’t want to be scrambling to play catch up when the industry is booming and you’ve missed your chance to be a pioneer.
I’ve packaged my years of training and my months of observing industry trends during lockdown into this course.
This course takes just a few hours to complete and costs the same amount as an annual subscription to Zoom.
You’ve been paying $15 a month for the Zoom Pro membership for months right? Why not invest those additional dollars to learn how to use it properly?
When you sign up for the course, you get three fantastic bonuses.
