HIRE CORINNE EDWARDS – Media Coach
WHY WOULD YOU NEED A MEDIA COACH?
Sweaty palms? Ears clogged up so you can’t hear your own voice?
You are a great writer and enjoy speaking in small groups. You are a communicator.
But put a mike in your hand and you freeze. Here’s a secret. Everyone does. I remember those days.
More and more podcasting, video blogging and interviews are being done on the Internet.
Why should you use me to help?
I loved being a talk show host/producer on television and radio for Wisdom Television.
But it was over 400 interviews ago. I made all the mistakes for you. I learned how to grab interest from my opening line. And how to follow up with the right questions. Questions your listener would want your guest to answer.
My interest now is in helping you with what I know about media coaching - whether you are a speaker, an interviewer or are have been invited for an interview.
It’s scary if you are doing the interview. And one of the worst nightmares is if you are the one on the other end. What do you do if the interviewer is not familiar with your topic? They have not prepared. This is more common than you think. How do you handle that?
I will teach you how to give the interview no matter what they don’t ask you.
A compulsive editor, I can help you punch up your speech.
I was the host of a weekly cable show in Chicago.
Then, I joined Wisdom Television and the show went national – five days a week for six years until the station was sold. I did more than 400 interviews.
Among the personalities I have interviewed are Deepak Chopra, Wayne Dyer, Robert Bly, Judith Viorst, Les Brown, Jean Houston – I could go on and on.
It was a wonderful opportunity.
As a resume, here are a few snippets from the shows. These authors were on book tours promoting their latest books.
I charge by the hour or by the project. I like to use Skype so we can see each other or ovoo. The sessions then can also be recorded.
Another way some clients have asked me to help them is by reviewing already produced programming. You can learn much by a critique.

Dear Corinne,
I’ve seen many of your interview shows on the Wisdon channel and nobody does it better.
You look and hear someone like you and say to yourself, “if only I could communicate like that.” Now you are giving some lucky people out there the opportunity to learn some of your skills. You go girl and good luck!
Take care,
Sondra
Corinne, I learned some things about good interviewing just by listening and watching you. If I had only one takaway, it would be this.
Say one provocative thing. Then sit back and listen.
Would you agree?
Absolutely yes!
One of my favorite questions Larry King always asks is -
“WHY?”
