The power of getting to the point 
According to Nancy Hogan, if you want to become an acknowledged expert, you had better learn PowerPoint.
"I'm the person to talk to when it comes to mortgage fraud," she says. Hogan, managing broker of the Coral Gables San Remo Office of Coldwell Banker, has been called to speak at so many conferences, Chamber of Commerce meetings, committee hearings and council chapters that she worked up a slide show in PowerPoint. "Now, whenever the media needs a reference on the topic, or somebody needs a speaker, I get the call. You want to be an expert? Work up a presentation."
