Our Training and Coaching Deliver Value
“It has been a great pleasure partnering with Dave Underhill for our in-person and virtual presentations over the past few years.
When we went virtual in March, 2020, Dave jumped in to help us succeed in this new world. We brought him in to guide us as we pivoted to delivering virtual webinars, conferences, workshops, and client presentations. He assisted in adapting our content to present well online and coached our speakers in creating a confident presence. We’ve had great client feedback and strengthened our client relationships with these events.
I recommend Dave as a great resource when you want to exceed expectations with your virtual and live events!”

“Dave thanks for coaching me on Brandlive’s investor pitch. Your work on format and delivery was an important factor in helping us raise $3.2 million in our recent round.”

“Dave, thanks for your coaching. The speech I gave in front of 20 CEO’s went extremely well. Your help and coaching in crafting my story and polishing the delivery made all the difference. As you know I suffer from stage fright. It was so rewarding to overcome my fear of public speaking and deliver a great speech. Of course I was still nervous but not nearly as much as I have been in the past. Thanks again.”

“Dave, I attended the Portland Institute of Internal Auditors meeting where you presented “Speaking With Impact”; and also took the follow up 2 hour session. It has helped me tremendously in my career, as well as improved the image of the departments I’ve worked in.
I got more out of one hour of your training than several other presentation trainings that were 8-16 hours of details.”
