Free Opening Audit
Find out where they stopped listening.
Send the first 90 seconds of your talk. Todd watches it against the Well Said method and tells you what to move.
Ninety seconds is all Todd needs to see where the room drifted.
- Scored on the five segments: their turf, the hook, the loop, the tension, the assumed antidote
- One change that would make the biggest difference
- Free. No call required.

What you get back
Your opening, marked up like a rundown.
Here's the kind of sheet you'll get. This one's an example, not a real speaker.
You open with your own story. Start with the moment they're already living in, then bring yourself in.
The competitive-edge line lands. People lean in. Keep it.
You answer the question before you've asked it. Give them half and let them finish the sentence.
The stakes are clear but nothing is at the door yet. Show the clock.
You go straight to your method. First name what they think already works, and what changed.
