Connect, Quick

Sometimes an in-and-out engagement is all you need whether it is to develop skills, fine tune a concept or manage an issue. We’ve designed a set of off-the-shelf services for just that purpose. Feel free to contact us to learn more about how we can quickly respond to your needs.

Message Platforms

Every organization needs to understand the essence of its brand messaging – the words and ideas to be communicated on a very regular basis to build a positive, enduring reputation. We create Platforms through a six-hour workshop process that helps organizations get to the root of their desired “known for” and connects their messaging together.

Jeff Hahn, Principal and owner of Hahn, Texas personally facilitates our workshops. Workshops are designed to begin at 10:00am and end at 4:00pm for groups sized from six to ten people.

Spokesperson Skills

Many people are put in a position to be a spokesperson at some point, whether for a business pitch, a make-or-break presentation, an important speech or media interview. Whatever the event, our spokesperson skills training can help anyone prepare to deliver even the most difficult message in a powerful, compelling manner. Take advantage of our spokesperson skills training to:

• Prepare for difficult media interviews
• Polish your presentation so it captures attention
• Refine your speech to improve its impact
• Perfect your messages to make them memorable
• Enhance your first-impression presence with tips on wardrobe, energy and style

Russ Rhea heads up our spokesperson training practice. Last year, he led more than 250 people through their skills training, helping them with topics ranging from healthcare costs to food safety. His 15 years as an award-winning broadcast journalist give him a unique ability to listen for and polish up the perfect quote.

In our skills training sessions, we emphasize hands-on practice and immediate feedback instead of lectures with messages relevant to the individual spokespeople. We make extensive use of video cameras to prepare you for all possibilities and show you what your audience will be seeing. Customized individual sessions can be arranged in four-hour time blocks as well as group sessions of not more than five people in a six-hour workshop.
