Let's Face It...

Public Speaking Is A Hard Skill To Master

Problem #1

Even though you're an expert at what you do, you're not sure how to explain what you do in a way others find interesting.

Problem #2

The thought of speaking to an audience that's distracted by their phones crushes your confidence...and it shows!

Problem #3

You get zero ROI when you speak at conferences, because you don't know the formula to create desire and interest.

Meet Your Instructor

Meet Your Instructor

My name is [John Watkis]. I've been a paid, professional speaker since 1996, but it hasn't always been pretty.

I've made every public speaking mistake in front of audiences. Fortunately, I survived the mistakes, and each one taught me valuable lessons that helped me improve the next time around.

Almost 30 years later, my speaking career has taken me all over the world. I've given presentations in 7 countries, on 4 continents to senior executives, politicians, non-profits, government agencies, and incarcerated youth. I'm the author of Speaking Notes: The Eight Essential Elements to Make Your Speech Music to Their Ears. I was also an internationally recognized speechwriter, and was the first Canadian actor to play the role of Mufasa in The Lion King musical.

And guess what the #1 thing I've learned throughout this entire journey is...  👉  You don't need to have over-the-top energy, a commanding voice, or be perfect when you speak in order to stand out. Once you understand the fundamental principles of public speaking, you can capture and keep the attention of any audience. AND THAT RIGHT THERE is what inspired me to create the 10 Day Presentation Transformation online course, the most efficient, online course for helping business professionals take their speaking skills to the next level, regardless of whether or not public speaking is your "natural gift."

But, I get it...you probably don't really care about who I am and why I created this platform... Right now, all you care about is CAN I ACTUALLY HELP YOU!? Short answer...absolutely. Unlike many course creators who treat public speaking like a side gig, I make my living teaching public speaking to professionals in large corporations, non-profits, government agencies, educational institutions, and conferences. My clients have won multi-million dollar contracts, been promoted to senior positions in global organizations, and gained attention within their organization as a result of working with me. Instead of a cookie-cutter approach, you'll be able to use the principles in the course to fit your personality and style...and get the results you want when you give a presentation. To top it off, you'll have a community to grow with toward your goal of taking your speaking to the next level. It will happen when you follow the proven, step-by-step process in 10 Day Presentation Transformation. I hope you're as excited as I am for you to begin this journey!  I can't wait to see your presentation transformation.

Who Is This Course For?

  • You're a business professional who knows how important public speaking is to your brand... and you want to take your skills to the next level

  • You want to feel more confident when you speak in front of any size audience

  • You want potential clients to take action when they hear you speak

Who Is This Course NOT For?

  • You aren't willing to risk failure in order to improve. This course will require taking risks to get results...

  • You're not 100% sure you want to include public speaking in your business plans. This course won't try to convince you to improve your public speaking skills.  If you don't enjoy it, don't force yourself to do it.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do I have access to the program & when does it start?

You get LIFETIME ACCESS to 10 Day Presentation Transformation when you enroll. The full course will be ready December 16, 2025, but there are already completed modules you'll want to watch right away. You can access the private community immediately.

Can't I learn all of this on YouTube?

NOPE. Not even close. The information I share comes from nearly 30 years as a speaker, speechwriter, performer and coach. That's experience you won't find anywhere. Sure, there are fundamentals of public speaking you can find on YouTube, but 10 Day Presentation Transformation goes much deeper and wider than the fundamentals.
