"Thank you Forrest! I presented my first business demo to a local college and it was a success. I followed your speaking formula and delivered an efficient demo. Before attending your workshop, I was trying to figure out how to approach my demo. Based on the feedback from the faculty, I immediately knew I nailed it."

Thank you so much for speaking to our members tonight!! Though you couldn’t see via the Zoom angle, we had a GREAT in-person turnout and about 15 attending on Zoom as well. I personally filled a page in my notebook with key takeaways from your talk, and I noticed many other students furiously taking notes as well.
