Get the media working for you

Doug Weller

I often say that our Corporate Media Services team is in the fear removal business.

Our goal is to leave you feeling empowered and confident about media interactions, no matter what your media comfort level.

Hi, I’m Doug Weller, Founder and Director of Corporate Media Services.

Media is an amazing industry. It’s been a big part of my life for most of my life and I love it!

I started this company almost 10 years ago to deliver no-nonsense, cutting edge media training programs.

Having spent many years as a working journalist, I wanted to pass on what I know to people who struggle with media interviews, or those who want to polish their media performances.

Some people find dealing with media easy, some love it. Most don’t. A lot of people fear delivering presentations and doing media interviews.

I often say that our Corporate Media Services team is in the fear removal business.

Our goal is to leave you feeling empowered and confident about media interactions, no matter what your media comfort level.

The same goes for our presentation skills training courses. Whether you’re presenting to an individual, a small group, a large group or a media audience; a lot of what you need to do is similar.

It’s all about getting your confidence level to the point where you can deliver a professional, clear, understandable presentation or media message.

Take a look at the broad outlines of what we offer in our  media training and presentation skills courses.

These courses are entirely customised for your organisation from that starting point.

We’ve worked with some fantastic people over the past decade who are now out there engaged in the media process.

Hundreds of those people have given us fantastic testimonials and we thank them for that.

If you want to talk about how we can work with you and your team, please contact us and we’d be happy to chat.

Regards,

Doug
