This discussion centers on being outstanding, natural, and honest in sales settings. For individuals who struggle with meeting the right people or knowing the right moment to strike at an opportunity Ryan Levis will teach vocal and postural technique-2-habits that can transform any person into a more comfortable salesperson and speaker.

We know that to succeed well in a physical action, such a presenting or socializing, repetition is a good idea. What is more important though is to understand how in fact our person is being perceived. Ryan Levis will talk about being honest and offer insight into how one can aid external perceptions. If you struggle talking in public or dislike being recorded, Ryan Levis will leave you with a couple of easy mantras and an improved personal brand. If you feel confident this talk will introduce you to even more fun kinds of awkward.

A blind participant will be pre-recorded for the event and that tape will show how bodies physically lie in poor habitual postures. These can be more easily improved with awareness. This is excellent demonstration for health and wellness. Also it benefits attendee’s ability to sell their skills and be their own best competitive advantage.
