    Biography

    The founder of Power Slide, LLC, A.C. Chan helps people become more poised, polished, and precise presenters. As a world-class coach, speaker, and facilitator with over 10 years of experience, he has worked with small business owners, sales professionals, and executives to deliver their pitch, presentation, or power talk. Whether you’re seeking funding for your new business venture, taking your interviewing skills to the next level, or simply jump-starting your sales career, A.C. stands out.

     

    “I always ask my clients, what’s the one thing you want people to remember about you when you walk away?”, A.C. shared. “You don’t get a second chance to make a first impression. Although we can easily remember things in threes, you’re lucky if they remember one thing about you”. So getting your “one thing” down pat is critical."

    The number of awards, ribbons, and trophies he's brought home from Toastmasters speech competitions makes it clear that A.C. walks his talk. At the Georgia state finals, he's taken 1st place in Evaluation (Constructive Feedback), 1st place Table Topics (Impromptu Speaking) and 2nd place Humorous Speech Contest. His work with small business owners has resulted in prizes ranging from $1,000 in cash to $6,000 in prizes.

     

    His proudest professional moment? Coaching a 10th grader to victory in the 2016 United Way Spark Gwinnett non-profit competition. She won a $25,000 prize for her 5-minute pitch. If you could win $25,000 for just 5-minutes of your time, would you do it?

     

    A.C. is a hacker, a foodie and a father. During his down time, fun involves a trifecta of traveling to new places, experiencing new cultures and cultivating new friendships.

A.C. was very engaging and really made us think about our communication skills. He asked challenging questions which helped us learn how to tell the story of our non-profit, Revolution Teen Center.

     

    Recently, we consulted with A.C. again to figure out how to refine our message and package it into a story that people will remember. His insights and suggestions have been very helpful as we prepare for the future of Revolution Teen Center."

    Williams & Associates

    "I worked as Regional Director for United Way and the Project Leader for Spark Prize Gwinnett, a non-profit Pitch Off competition. A.C. is the best professional coach that I have ever worked with. He ensured that our 6 finalists were clear, concise and compelling with their pitch presentations. We gave away $70,000 in prize money to improve the well-being of Gwinnett County and could not have achieved this philanthropic milestone without A.C.'s help."

     

    DePriest Waddy

    Executive Director of the Jefferson County Committee for Economic Opportunity

    A.C. has provided thoughtful and immensely helpful guidance on how to best present pertinent information about our business quickly! He's given us some great ideas for how to approach mixing up our elevator pitch with stories and humor. A.C. has gone above and beyond to make sure we feel empowered to practice the easy and effective methodology that he taught us.

     

    I certainly recommend him to anyone that is looking for some help polishing pitch material or who needs help in devising a presentation from scratch.
