His Irvine-based Chesney Communications specializes in producing interactive sales, marketing and customer endorsement presentations. Bob is a self-proclaimed "Preference Illiterate". "I love to read business books and articles but when it comes to learning things, my preference is seeing and hearing the information." According to Chesney, he has a lot of company. UCLA Professor Albert Marabian proved that less than 7% of effective communication comes through words. The majority is from voice tone and body language. "With broadband connections in almost all businesses and over 50% of homes, video on the web is virtually like watching television on demand," says Chesney. "The best part of the process is that it's quick, easy to do and very cost effective", says Chesney who coaches the presenters using his unique style and innovative technology."
