The last time I used one of your tips was during a sales type of presentation to a major corporation a couple months ago. At the end, I stood up in front of these twenty high-power executives and said "I'd like to make a recommendation...." It worked like magic and I'm a hero in my company.

I gave a technical-type talk in Hong Kong recently and am now known as "Most Honorable Professional Speaker." The really scientific types were voted as kind of dull, where I, with my enthusiasm and intensity, got the best marks. Some of them deferred to me in their own talks and actually apologized that they didn't have the same zeal! I'm just trying to tell you your advice pays off!

I'm not up there with the big boys and girls of professional speaking, but even my mediocre achievements have opened up doors of opportunity and fun I couldn't have imagined five years ago. If I were financially independent, I would keep speaking. My life has been changed for the better, forever.

Keep up the good work!"
