I had a fear of performing in front of an audience for a long time. Especially when I was a student. Only when I graduated from university did I overcome it. When I came to work, I had to perform even more often in front of strangers, these people were potential partners. For each meeting I prepared presentations with the help of https://slidepeak.com/pitch-deck-design, so my presentations are more successful. This is an indispensable service for a successful business.
