Jacqueline Marcell Speech Topics

Topics

I am very adaptable and can work within any format, but here’s a method that greatly improves eldercare knowledge and cohesiveness within a community: If your event is for the public (at a nominal fee), make it also available to healthcare professionals for a normal fee for their CEU’s and CME’s—as most won’t come otherwise. If your event is for your own members/professionals, make it also a nominal fee to the public, which assures free media exposure where your organization and the other sponsors will get FREE advertising. This motivated more sponsors to become involved, which distributes the cost while multiplying the attendance as they all help to promote the event.

Ahead from Irvine CA, I can do interviews for your local print and radio media, and then arrive there early for a day of in-person radio and television interviews—always mentioning your organization first and then the sponsors in order of their monetary involvement. I can give 2 presentations (or maybe 3 if you have a small location) to maximize possible attendance. I can speak for 2 hrs + Q&A in the morning, moderate a panel in the afternoon, and speak again early evening. You will receive my list of Sponsor Ideas and I will invite my contacts in your area from my 10,000+ database. I have extensive Seminar Guidelines and Templates for most everything you’ll need to help make your event a huge success.

Most of these topics can be included within any length presentation, easily modified to the focus/theme of your event, and adjusted to any type of audience (CEU & CME’s for healthcare professionals including doctors). Having been a college professor in my first life, I keep an audience “edu-tained” by injecting poignant and humorous anecdotes amid interesting facts and statistics. I am also experienced with workshops, roundtables, moderating or being part of a panel, spousal programs, tele-seminars, and presenting all day seminars myself.
