Specialist media interview training For both new and established celebrities and media "faces". Delivered at your venue or my London, UK training studio
I know what you're trying to achieve And I know what the journalist, interviewer and fans want - and matching the two is what I'm good at
Clarity, confidence and competence An authentic, clearly articulated message with interviews delivered in a "conversational style" that just "feels right"
Genuinely different Quick, effective and in-tune with modern audiences and the modern media. No fluff, no nonsense, just powerful results
Proven track record For over 30 years I've been successfully helping media stars deliver profile-building media interviews that stay true to their individual personalities and "brand". During that time I've coached some of the most famous people in the world as well as helping those suddenly thrust into the limelight survive and thrive
Transition to TV if you're exploring opportunities to front, present or co-host programmes, turn to me for help. I've personally coached over 3,000 on-screen hosts, presenters and journalists including many household names, giving you access to unrivalled expertise whether you're asking or answering the questions
