All great presenters have one thing in common: they know when to quit
In my last post I was talking about the fact that nobody will buy 100% of your material 100% of the time, and how that is totally a-ok. Now I want to talk about another moment that happens in all successful presentations. It's that moment when all your work to...

If TED can FAIL, so can YOU!

Why You Need the Best Presentation Skills
In business, in academia, at conferences, and in meetings it’s crucial that your message is clear, concise, and effective.
Whether you are communicating inside an organization, to your customers, or to the industry at large, your presentation skills determine how quickly and strongly your ideas will travel.
The Benefit of Our Training
We provide presentation skills training courses that help you convey a clear message, organize your thoughts, lay out your slides, and deliver a TED-level presentation.
900+ Successful Presentation Students
Since 2014 we’ve helped more than 900 individuals succeed at university and in the workplace. We’ve helped employees that want to stand out among peers and freelancers that need to conquer the hearts and minds of new clients.
Who Is This Training For?
This training has provided great results for the following groups:
- Students: academia is a competitive environment. Communication skills allow students to stand out and succeed.
- Freelancers: working independently requires the ability to communicate clearly with clients and partners.
- Accounts/Agencies/Sales teams: one of the core purposes of storytelling is to sell an idea, a service, a product.
- Managers and Teams: Presentation Hero simplifies internal and external corporate communications by providing a common framework in which diverse teams can collaborate.
“If you’re gearing up for your next pitch and you’re not already using Presentation Hero, you are a genius or… you’re doing it all wrong.”
“In collaboration with Matteo we are able to develop presentations for our clients with a proven methodology. It gives us a firm structure through which we create better, engaging presentations. What’s more; our clients become better, more confident presenters themselves!”
“Presentation Hero brings order where habit created havoc and made us understand that we can work and communicate much better. It’s a tool to drastically improve both how we do our work and how we present it.”
“Life is too short to sit through bad presentations, and you have probably already seen too many of them. It’s time to get in touch with the Presentation Hero Academy. We can make the world a better place, one presentation at the time.”

Our courses are born digital. You can digest all our content with our fast-paced videos, sign up for one of our seminars, or request a specific training for your team.
What If Your Next Presentation Was Effortless?
A sense of panic invades us each time we’re tasked with a presentation. It shouldn’t be that way. With the help of a proven method you can give the correct structure to your ideas and create a small number of effective slides following a storytelling structure that works 100% of the time.
What If Your Next Presentation Was at the Level of a TED Talk?
Academic and corporate presentations are often boring and forgettable. In the meantime the world tunes in to hear specific talks like Apple keynote addresses and TED talks. That level of public speaking is within your reach.
Why Should I Attend a Presentation Hero Seminar?
I’ve never been confident on stage. Not even today. Yet this is what I do all the time. I needed a proven method to build successful presentations. I needed help becoming more confident on stage. I needed a technique to cut the time it takes to prepare slides. I created Presentation Hero for myself. And since its inception it has helped almost a thousand (!) people.
I Just Need to Sell X. How Can You Help?
Presentation Hero is particularly effective when it comes to the sales process. I’ve tested it with clients that need to deliver a company pitch to win new business. It has also been used to create sales videos. I’ve used it as a tool to deliver brief sales presentations that kickstart the sales meeting (in contrast to the exhausting and ineffective decks usually prepared by the marketing/product teams).

I’m a marketing consultant and an enthusiastic entrepreneur with experience working for multinational companies (Warner Bros.), teaching at a university (Link Campus University), and consulting for entertainment companies (Netflix). I’m a scholar of storytelling and have dug deep into screenwriting techniques, mythology, and trans-media narratives.

I'm ready. What do I need to bring?
There is nothing specific that you need to bring to this course, apart from your enthusiasm and your attention.
