William James

Since 1987 I have been a platform personality, deivering presentations on sales, motivation and professional development. I have for the last 5 years made keynote addresses to large conventions and trade shows on handheld technology. I addressed the National Association of REALTORS in 2004 and again in 2005, and the American Society of Surgical Oncologists at their annual meeting in 2005. I have been invited to address them once more in 2006. In 2003 I self-published a book, and was invited by a local radio station in Atlanta to record a series of 30 second drops for use over the Holiday season. I recently recorded an audio training guide for the Palm Treo 650 smartphone, written for the real estate profession. I have also done videorecordings for CompUSA and OfficeMax for internal training programs 1n 2004 and 2005. I have no formal voice training outside of my years of speaking experience for radio, video and audio recordings I have. As a platform presenter, I have the ability to create messages that attratct and retain attention. I write my own content and have no problem with technical writing as well. I am comfortable behind the mic, on the screen or on the platform. I have been complimented by producers as being easy to wrok with, to direct and I make their task easier because of my professional demeanor and presentation style.
