Your 1-on-1 Personalized Training sessions can be designed, by you, to cover any subject matter of your choosing. These “open” sessions are intended to be formatted so that the agenda is most beneficial to enhancing your professional skill set, and advancing your career.
Sessions can be created by utilizing:
1) Announcer’s own content, questions, issues, challenges, etc.
2) Announcer’s own demo reel, video footage, or event performances
3) Content, modules, or curriculum available here at Live Event Announcing
*Coaching & Mentoring programs excluded
Here at Live Event Announcing, we’ve organized all the elements, skill-sets, instruction, curriculum, lesson plans, exercises, practice drills, and techniques that Michael C. Williams has been utilizing in training and coaching for nearly two decades.
For more than 25 years... nearly every type, discipline, and dimension of the profession.
A personal message from your instructor...
I’ve been announcing professionally for well over 25 years now. When I was starting out, there was never anyone to turn to. No one to ask questions, no one for training or coaching, and certainly no one offering any mentoring. During my early years, it was clear to me that all of us (yes, myself included) who were calling ourselves ‘Professional Announcers’ were untrained, at times just yelling, and basically not even close to being a true professional in our craft. We simply didn't know what we didn't know. And again, there was no one, and no place, providing any guidance.
Any time I'm working directly with an Announcer in our LIVE 1-on-1 Personalized Trainings, I am solely focused on accelerating the inevitable learning curve so that the Announcer can advance more rapidly in his/her career. I accomplish this by providing the necessary industry information, and the valuable insights into the announcing craft that I had to acquire and learn on my own over the course of nearly three decades.
Whether you're a new Announcer trying to break into the profession, or an up-and-comer that is trying to get to the next level, this course is your starting point on the journey towards accomplishing your goals of becoming a Professional -- and doing so in a fraction of the time it took guys like me to do it solo.

I would never want you to be unsatisfied.

Additionally, prior to starting your Session(s), you may contact us within the first 30 days to let us know that you would like a full refund.
