Marketing Podcast with Michael Port
Podcast Transcript
Today on the Duct Tape Marketing Podcast, I chat with author, professional speaker, and entrepreneur Michael Port.
Port is the co-founder and CEO of Heroic Public Speaking, where he trains entrepreneurs, professional and aspiring speakers, and executives on how to give a compelling speech that changes hearts and minds.
He is also the author of six books, including Steal the Show, which shares practical public speaking tips. A former professional actor, he now focuses his attention on helping businesses use public speaking as a marketing tool, and often appears as a communications and business development expert on MSNBC, CNBC, and PBS.
