The power of speech still matters.

Whatever the power of tech, most things happen in business because someone has an idea, and brings it to life, so that others are moved into action.

But make it snappy. 

Gone are the days when leaders would roam the stage, and talk from the hip. It was never any good, but some didn't know any better. But there no excuses any more.  We've all seen great short speeches that go somewhere fast.

It's easy when you know how.

Memorable speeches embed patterns in the minds of the audience.  We can help you shape your ideas, and organise your words to cement these pattern. There are ways to make a pacy opening, a fluent middle and a big finish. And all of these things will help you grip your audience from start to finish, and make sure they leave with your ideas fizzing in their brains.

You're pitching ideas, but first you've got to sell yourself.   

• The power of 'matter of fact',

• Signals and signposts,

• Purpose, power and pace,

• How to nail your dismount.

It's possible to be too close to something

When you're pulling together a large bid, it can help to have an extra pair of eyes. Not to change your ideas, but to challenge them, and channel them, and to help you to express them in the most powerful possible way.

We can help you in four areas.

• We'll work with your bid leaders to help define the story that pulls the whole bid together,  

• We'll create a solid structure of key messages – so that the document is logical, legible and navigable,

• We'll coach your technical writers to create impact and to use a single tone of voice.

We'll fit right in.

We'll do our homework in advance and drop into your team without a ripple. And once we're in-house, we'll start as early and work as late as you need to meet your deadlines. The way we see it, we're not just there to help you bid, we're there to help you win.
