In today's fast-paced world, where an elevator ride with your CEO can turn into an impromptu meeting, your lunch date can become a job interview, and your conversation at a cocktail party may be a preamble to a potential business merger, knowing how to market yourself in any situation is vital. Corporate coach Frances Cole Jones has helped numerous CEOs, celebrities, and public personalities present their best selves on camera and onstage, in boardrooms and in person; now in her new book, How to Wow, she shares her strategies for making your mark in business and in life.

Every encounter, Jones believes, provides you with an opportunity to positively influence colleagues, employers, neighbors and even competitors. Not only your words, but your tone of voice and your body language speak volumes. The question, however, is: Are they working together to say what you want them to, as effectively as possible?

With easy-to-follow advice, amusing anecdotes, and immediately employable hints, Jones' guidelines can keep you cool (even in hot water). From asking the right questions to giving the right answers, How to Wow will provide you with the confidence to be calm and commanding in all you do and to wow anyone anywhere anytime.

Frances founded Cole Media Management in 1997. From the beginning her company's focus has been cultivating clients' inherent strengths to develop the powerful communication skills that enhance personal and professional performance.

The scope of Frances' work includes preparation for television and print interviews, IPO road shows, meetings with potential investors, and internal meetings with partners, sales staff, and in-house personnel. She also provides presentation skills seminars and speech writing for clients.

Prior to this Frances worked at St. Martin's Press, Viking Penguin, Doubleday, and Broadway Books as an editor of commercial nonfiction. She has written for Black Ink and Executive Travel.
