I Tested Out My New Hardware Today

Today, I was presenting at a high school in a Pre-Prom assembly, and they had a port where I could connect my new device (the one that amplifies my communication device over an entire sound system).


It worked out unbelievable and even better than when I had used one years back.  Everything that I typed out was coming out loud for everyone to hear and perfectly clear, not muddled at all.


We only had time to answer two questions, but I could already tell that the crowd was getting so much more out of the experience than crowds that I had presented to before I got this device.


If you have a port where you can connect a stereo, a computer, a TV, or anything else to the sound system, then my device will connect, too.


I have a few more presentations lined up before the end of the school year, but please don't hesitate to ask me to present for an event this year or for next year because, with this device, presenting to large groups is just as amazing as presenting to classes or small groups!

BIG Boost For My "Speaking"!

   Even though it's been a while since my last post, I am still presenting a solid amount and I'm still just looking for more.


   Recently, I discovered a device that will be an ENORMOUS boost in the quality of my events.  While I was presenting at a conference for speech pathologists, they had a device that plugged directly into my communication device and amplified it to the entire crowd.  It worked like a microphone would and it came out clear as day, so I was immediately in love and had to find out more about it.  The ones I had used in the past worked, but only in certain sound systems that were not built into most schools. 


   The person that was in charge of the sound system was actually a guy a few years younger than me that had seen my presentation at his school years back, so I asked him about the device.  He told me that it works in every sound system and told me that he could get me one, which was amazing because I have wanted something like this since I began presenting to schools over ten years ago. 


   This is incredible.  Now, when I present to groups and answer questions, my answers will sound as clear as someone talking in a microphone and people will be able to understand me as well as if they were standing next to me.


     When I previously have just set a microphone next to the speaker, my communication device makes a weird noise and the words are difficult to understand sometimes.  This will improve the quality in which I answer questions to big groups by so much that it's impossible to put into words.


    I may get to use it soon as I was just asked about presenting to a high school down in Louisville, so I'm excited about the possibility of traveling down there and trying out my new hardware.  Hopefully, it all pans out and I get to present down there.


    Honestly, I'm like a little kid on Christmas morning.  Presenting and making a difference is what matters most to me, and this takes me to a new level. 


    Please do not hesitate to ask me to present to your school, college, company, Church, or wherever else.  I am open to everything, including traveling, so let me know about any requests and we'll work something out!
