"I presented to a seminar of 50 people. I managed to get follow up with only 25% of these people within a month. I then spent time with Jane. We cut the waffle; we got to the point and rehearsed, rehearsed, rehearsed"

"I then presented to a seminar of 35 people. 85% were booked in my diary within two weeks."

"She gets great results - what else do you need to know? I went from 25% to 85% follow up success."

"Jane coached three finalists for our International Woolworths Paul Simons Award on presentation and interview skills.  The feedback of our team was most complimentary and we saw our team presenting with panache and impact.  The best compliment that can be made, however, is that one of our candidates won the competition and became the first Kiwi to win Store Manager of the Year"

"You're a great coach Jane - talking to a camera is not all that easy, you've helped a lot."

"Dear Jane,
My presentation went extremely well yesterday and generated around 30 minutes of discussion afterwards - which was great. I couldn't be happier.

You have made a huge difference and have had a positive impact on the way I present myself when speaking in front of others.
Thank you so much for all your help."

Helen Talbot

Barrister and Fashion Designer

"After a lengthy period practising law I changed direction and became a fashion designer. While addressing a jury presented no problems I found public speaking about my career quite daunting. Jane came to my aid and I was astonished at how much I had to learn about engaging an audience. She was encouraging, humorous and above all dedicated. My speech was a great success and surprisingly, I enjoyed the experience."

Yvonne McLean

ACC (ICF), Executive Coach

"I recently worked with Jane Thomas John (Now You're Talking) when I was preparing for an important presentation. I had done Presentation Skills training many years ago and have done many presentations to a variety of audiences over the years. I had also practised for many years as a litigator. I considered myself to be a fairly confident and able presenter/speaker."

"Working with Jane enabled me to take my presentation skills up another level. She is fun to work with and does not shy away from giving direct (and invaluable) feedback. I learned much from my sessions with Jane and felt that my performance was substantially better. I cannot recommend Jane's services highly enough."

"I have always considered myself to be a confident, competent speaker - but with Jane's professional input my public speaking skills improved dramatically. I now receive many compliments - I would recommend Jane to anyone!"
