Media Training: Get Quoted, Look Confident, Build Leads
TJ Walker pulls a “vault” lesson that proves a powerful point: you do not need perfect production to create lasting impact. TJ explains how to craft three short message points, deliver memorable sound bites, and handle questions without repeating negative framing. You’ll also get practical on-camera tips for posture, eye contact, facial expression, and natural hand movement, plus phone interview tactics like using a cheat sheet and bridging back to your key point.
