“I’ve got some pretty big news to share:
- So far Prapela has won pitch contests and grants totaling: from the State of Ohio: $1M – With $1M on the line, this was potentially the most difficult speaking engagement you could imagine. Because of my preparation and previous coaching [with John Bates], I was calm, confident, and felt connected to the judges.
- Then from the State of Massachusetts: $200k
- And, most recently from the NIH: $2.5M
Thanks, and please keep up the good work helping so many become competent speakers.”

“John has the amazing capability to teach you how to turn facts into a compelling and engaging story that will leave your crowd asking for more. I highly recommend John’s services, especially if you are presenting to customers, investors at events, etc.”
– Itai Sadan, Co-Founder & CEO DudaMobile
“I’m really glad I got to work with John. He provided me simple and effective techniques to capture the audience’s attention and focus on what was most important. I still use his advice of inviting those hearing the story to ‘imagine’, which allows others to more strongly connect with the story of Arcturus. ”
– Joe Payne, Arcturus *a JLABS Company
“John is far more than merely a speaker coach. The thing I love most about John, above and beyond his masterful training which made me a better communicator, is his steady, amazing guidance in the process of mining for and being inspired by my true self.”
