by Sam Horn

Louis Nizer said, "No speech is good without an original thought."

In today's competitive marketplace, no speaker/author will prosper unless s/he has original titles and content. The key to our endurability and profitability is demonstrating that we're "one-of-a-kind" instead of "one-of-many." If we're saying the same thing as everyone else, why should meeting planners spend their limited dollars hiring us, why should busy people waste their precious time reading us?

You may be thinking, "I agree with this, but HOW do I come up with innovative names and content? Sam will show you how with her system for creating intellectual capital that commands respect and favorable interest.

  • Formulate "water-cooler words" that will have people talking about your book or speech weeks later
  • Develop a "Tell and Sell Statement" that passes The Washington Post Test
