All presentations are made in an editorial style. I do not "sell from the podium" but we've found many members at the end of a presentation, like to hear a one-minute summary of our services, and as a benefit for the organizing group we offer to split 50% / 50% on our sales of ExpertClick memberships sold at the time of the event. In January 2010 at a National Speakers Association we raised $4,200 and the organizing group made $2,100.
