Whether it's a live TV interview, speaking tour for a book launch, a sizzling new video for your website or prepping for legal testimony, she'll help you harness the best parts of your style and find an authentic voice that resonates!

PUBLIC SPEAKING

It may not come naturally, but it's a necessity to master it. Whether selling to a client, presenting to the team at the office, or commanding a room of hundreds, learn how to leave the fears behind and bring out your smartest, forceful, natural self. Work on the non-verbal cues that don't benefit you while harnessing the most influential pieces you already have.

Work with a 20 year veteran of live anchoring and reporting. Get insider tips and instant on-camera feedback to become your most authentic and polished self, while delivering a succinct and powerful message.

LEGAL TESTIMONY

Whether a divorce/family matter, workers' compensation, civil lawsuit or other matter, your time in the witness box is pivotal. All the research and attorney preparation now rests on your testimony. Make it crisp, concise, impactful . . . and completely yours.

As the owner of a public relations firm that specializes in getting clients on TV, I needed a top notch media trainer. I'm lucky to have found the absolute best in Kirstin Cole. Kirstin knows exactly how to coach clients into how to look and sound great on TV. She even goes a step further than anyone else would and works through subject matter they may have to tackle on TV. She is not just molding a talking head, she is turning people with little to no TV experience into pros in a short amount of time!

Being comfortable in front of a television camera, or talking to a live audience, is not an easy task. More importantly, trying to make the most of your time in front of a camera or live audience is even a tougher task. Honing in on your message for the people you rely on for business success, making a lasting impact with the words you say, and then leaving the audience wanting more are only some of the attributes you will gain when working with a seasoned veteran of the NY television world. Working with Kirstin Cole has been just that!

She has the experience, and conveyed it in a professional and upbeat manner. She has tremendously positive energy and is very confident in her teaching style. Her teaching style keeps you on your feet and challenges your abilities to convey a poignant and powerful message. I feel it has helped give me a better understanding of what is expected of me when I am in front of a camera or live audience. Invaluable experience!
