Tim Wright has spent a very good part of his life as a Teacher and Lecturer. As CEO of Wright Results Inc, he has taken his talents and experience on the road, traveling throughout the country speaking to a multitude of Medical organizations.

Mr. Wrights informative, one hour CD is full of tools, techniques and tactics that will help a lecturer acquire more speaking engagements. The CD contains more than 20 tips and helpful hints for successful sales presentations and how to get more speaking engagements in a shorter time. His approach uses a step by step method to market and sell your expertise. He will show you how these techniques work in the course of selling your consulting skills, coaching talents, or your real estate techniques.

The information in the CD was very interesting and valuable. But the way it was presented and the physical packaging were a bit disappointing. The CD was an actual recording of a live lecture and along with all the good information came the irritating pauses and asking if he (Mr. Wright) could be heard. Finally, there was the usual question and answer period, which took up my valuable time. Now we come to the question of poor manufacturing quality. The label looked very unprofessional as if done on a home printer with a bad ink cartridge. The color was faded and the whole thing had a fuzzy appearance. The CD itself had some bad spots in it, causing me to miss a word or phrase. I think this too was due to a manufacturing defect much like a skip in a record. Though the content was very enlightening and the information very helpful, I think I would prefer the live version of this lecture. In all honesty, if you want the wealth of information that Mr. Wright has to offer in this CD, then buy it and put up with the minor irritations. When I review a book, tape, or CD; I must evaluate it on all fronts. In doing so, the physical appearance was a minor point which did not deter from the content. I gave this one a B simply because of its appearance and manufacturing style.
