What DO you do?
Several years ago, I had a Next Step client who told me, “Amy, I don’t think people understand what you do. I sure didn’t before we worked together!”
She explained that when she signed up for the Message Development Service she thought I’d simply edit the message she wrote. Instead, she realized that it was service that included lots of teaching about essential communication skills. To read all about the Message Development Service click here.
You still might be a little fuzzy on what it means to work with a speaking coach, so I wanted to clarify by telling about the wide range of what we can work on together.
Message Development & Evaluation:
I work with clients on developing messages from scratch as well as giving feedback on recordings or videos of messages. It’s scary to submit your work to someone else, but I’m an encourager at heart. My goal is to work myself out of a job by giving you the tools you need to confidently convey the message God has put on your heart.
Marketing Materials:
I love working with clients to create websites, biosheets, and other materials in order to communicate the valuable message you have to share with others.
Although my background is education, I’ve learned a lot over the years about effectively getting the word out. It turns out that both education and marketing are about brain-science which totally geeks me out!
Miscellaneous:
This is the category I most want to talk about. Do you have something you wish you could develop or process with another speaker? I’m here for you! The Specialized Coaching Call is a single call where we can put the power of collaborative learning to work. Two heads truly are better than one.
Here are some examples of single-call, individualized services I’ve done:
- Discussion with the leader of a non-profit about communicating her vision as she fund-raises.
- Brain-storming book titles that resonate.
- Evaluating a single, written message including talking through the potential for retreat development.
- Giving feedback on how to upgrade an existing website.
- Just this week I got the fun task of helping a client develop a concept for a television segment she’s been invited to do.
Do you have something that you’d love to bounce around with another speaker? Let’s do a Free Consultation Call to see if I’m a good fit to help. I’m always up front about whether I think I’m to the one to help. If not, I’ll tell you, and I’ll try to find a referral for you.
Is there a service you’re interested in that I’m not currently offering? I’d love to hear about it!
Also, I’m thinking of starting to offer some services around writing since I’ve been on this huge learning curve. What are you looking for? I’d love to have your feedback, so I can think through adding new services.
Thanks, friends. I value each one of you, and I love hearing from you in the comments and via email. Hugs to you!
You offer such excellent services. I have benefitted from the Message Development coaching…and I know you have so much more to offer. Thankful for you!
Thanks, Elise! I’m so grateful to be part of your ministry story!!
