Why Presentation Urgent Care?

Nobody goes to urgent care for fun.
They go because the quick fixes and home remedies aren’t working.

Presentations are the same way.

• You’ve reworked the slides.

• You’ve tried AI prompts.

• You’ve asked colleagues for input.

But the message still isn’t clear, the delivery still feels flat, and the deadline isn’t moving.

That’s when you need more than DIY.

That's when you need expert support designed to help you move forward with confidence.

"Highly recommend! It’s amazing how creative and quick you are!! Much, much help to me!”

– Dr. Milena Esherick

Presentation Urgent Care provides:

• Live feedback and examples so you can see what works in real time.

• Guidance on structure, clarity, and delivery that you can apply right away.

• A supportive community where you’re not left figuring it out alone.

Choose a one-on-one session if you want:

• Individualized support

• Privacy / confidentiality

• Help for a presentation that's due soon

About James - Your Presentation Specialist

I’ve seen it too many times: smart professionals with important messages who struggle to deliver them under pressure. That’s why I created Presentation Urgent Care—to give people fast, expert support when their reputation is on the line.

I’m James Jeffley—award-winning international speaker, corporate trainer, minister, and two-time finalist in the Toastmasters World Championship of Public Speaking. For decades, I’ve helped leaders, professionals, and community voices transform their presentations—whether in boardrooms, classrooms, pulpits, or big stages. I’m also the author of The TAO of Public Speaking, a guide to speaking with clarity, confidence, and impact.

Presentation Urgent Care is my way of offering fast, focused support when the deadline is looming and DIY fixes just aren’t enough.

Frequently asked questions

❓ What if my presentation is very soon?

Presentation Urgent Care is designed for tight timelines, but it’s most effective when you reach out with at least a day or two to spare. While I’ll do my best to accommodate urgent requests, think of it like preparing for an exam—you’ll get better results if we have enough time to focus.

❓ Do you guarantee results?

No guarantees—every presentation and speaker is different. What I provide is expert feedback and strategies designed to help you strengthen your message, delivery, and confidence. It's still up to you to execute.

❓ How are group sessions different from 1:1 sessions?

Group sessions let you see how I coach others and learn from their real challenges. In a 1:1 session, the focus is entirely on you and your presentation.

❓ What if I’m nervous about sharing in a group?

That’s normal. You can start by watching, and when you’re ready, bring your own question or draft to a session. Or, you can book a private session.

❓ Do I need special software or equipment?

Nope. Just Zoom for the calls and access to Facebook for the community.

"I hired James for consultation composing a keynote address at the "Young Women and Money Conference”. His expertise gave my presentation structure, fluency and flow. He went beyond expectation with his time, knowledge and wisdom. With his guidance, my audience was transformed with a message of hope that moved them into action with their finances. He made a huge difference in my presentation. If you need support from a master communicator, you would be wise to contact James."

- Veronica Dangerfield, CUDE, CCUFC, AFC®, Sr. Financial Health Educator, Patelco Credit Union

"Being at the precipice of the most important role in my career, I sought out James because of his own great speaking abilities. He coached me through some misperceptions I had about myself, and helped build my confidence which allowed me to deliver the most impactful presentation of my life. I am now enjoying that new role thanks in large part to James' valuable coaching. I would highly recommend James Jeffley!"

- Melody Phipps, Managing Director, Deloitte LLP (retired)

"I can attest to the depth of insight, intelligent understanding, and compassionate, right-to-the-point help you have also given me on two speeches. You are truly gifted as a speaker and as a coach. Glad that others are discovering how this one-on-one support can radically accelerate honing the speech we all "want" to give, but don't yet have the skill level you bring to us. You're worth every penny, thanks for the help!"

- A. B., Marketing/Branding Expert
