Presentation coaching that will help you win awards or raise capital!

For those of you who are tracking the events of DEMO in Singapore, here is a showing of where the companies who will be launching or giving an alpha pitch are coming from. It’s quite impressive to meet these companies beforehand and then see the transformation after coaching. Tomorrow is a full day of dress rehearsals.

Speaking of rehearsals, I believe there is a BIG difference in practicing and rehearsing. Practicing is something you do by yourself. You take your script and memorize it and learn it so that you can deliver it without using any notes. Rehearsing is different in that you must do this in front of a living breathing person or people. If you don’t have any people watching you when you rehearse, then it is called practice in my book. If you have people with you, even if they don’t give you any comments or feedback, then it is called rehearsal.

Here is a map of where the companies launching this week are from:

This is going to be a very exciting week since I will be coaching many of the companies presenting at DEMO Asia 2012 in Singapore.

It’s going to be a very long set of flights from San Francisco, but I am set with extra batteries, books, movies, and lots of other things to keep me busy at 35,000 feet above sea level. The weather should be amazing and in the 80′s, so I can pack a bit lighter than normal.

I’ll be reporting in from DEMO Asia starting Tuesday, February 28. Stay tuned for reports from Singapore!
