𝗢𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗲𝗯: http://www.DeniseHedges.com𝗘𝗺𝗮𝗶𝗹: Denise@DeniseHedges.comMy background is in counseling, sales and marketing, and major event planning. That’s led me to what I specialize in today … coaching mostly women professionals and entrepreneurs on how to build and run a successful business … and how to use speaking as the prime strategy for building that business, making more sales, and generating more revenue.I’ve been speaking as a way to build my coaching and training business for the last 15 years. I began close to home, but now I travel all over the country, giving 15-20 presentations or more a year, from workshops and webinars to keynotes … 45 minute talks to day long programs. I‘d been in front of rooms in my professional capacities and as a leader of a well known transformational program, so I wasn’t completely new to speaking. But it took me a while to realize speaking was by far the best way I could reach the people who needed what I had to offer. And it took a while longer to really hone my speaking skills, gain the confidence I needed to be really effective, and address the doubts and fears most of us have when we contemplate speaking to groups.Coupling my knowledge of sales and marketing with the ability to find groups of women in my target market and speak to them has made all the difference for me. I’ve spoken to hundreds of groups, from women’s groups … NAWBO and ABWA … to coaches groups … International Coach Federation (ICF) … to professional associations. The results have been nothing short of amazing.I’m blessed to have clients all around the country and across the globe and a steady pipeline of new clients flowing into my coaching business.I love what I do, coaching people to market themselves in smarter ways, build their businesses faster and with less struggle … and master the art of speaking.Most of my clients are women, but I'll work with any service-based professionals and entrepreneurs who want and need my help.
