Burton Alper

I help people articulate their ideas more efficiently and more effectively.

My clients are typically C-Suite executives preparing for high-stakes and/or high-profile presentations. I’ve counseled entrepreneurs on fundraising pitches and IPO roadshows. I’ve helped seasoned CEOs prepare for board presentations and keynote addresses. I’ve worked with senior teams on internal communications and meeting management. 

Key clients include IDEO, Hall Capital, Sofinnova Ventures, Nokia Growth Partners, Tea Collection and many others. I’ve helped these clients craft the right messages for their desired audiences and deliver those messages in terms the audience will understand and remember. It’s usually a mix of storytelling, slide content and delivery coaching. 

Specific areas of expertise include executive communications and presentation coaching, content strategy, business development, brand strategy, and positioning and messaging development. 

In a past life, I spent 15 years working on branding projects with clients ranging from start-ups (Asana, Vudu, Livescribe) to blue-chips (Wells Fargo, Spalding, P&G, Palm). I’ve also worked on internal communications projects for Dell and Commonwealth Bank of Australia.
