Public Speaking and Your Presentation Style - A Secret Technique
Public Speaking and Your Presentation Style - A Secret Technique:
When you do any kind of public speaking or seminar, there is one thing that will be critically important:
Your presentation style.
I'm talking "make-or-break" here folks... I'm talking about reeling in new customers and clients and bringing in a flood of money by effectively getting your message across, or NOT.
Public speaking and seminars CAN bring you a flood of money, an avalanche of cash, but it's totally, completely 100% possible that your presentation style can completely ruin your results!
Don't fret, I'm coming to your rescue with a very simple, but extremely powerful technique to save the day (and your results!).
During your talk or speech, alternate between having the group laughing their asses off, and being scared to death.
This creates an emotional roller coaster ride for your audience.
It creates an emotionally moving and stirring experience that moves people to take action, and gets you the results you seek.
Now, I'll warn you that while this is extremely simple and powerfully effective, it's not necessarily easy because you DO have to be able to be alternately funny and scary on command.... but here's how to do it:
Do all of that by telling stories.
You can do this in a couple of ways:
1. Tell stories that make them laugh during the story, but also contain scary parts.
2. Tell funny stories and scary stories separately, alternating funny and scary.
Here's an example:
Let's say you're an insurance agent doing public speaking and seminars: you'd simply tell horror stories of what happened to people who didn't have insurance, but you'd also be sure to include humorous stories, or humorous elements in your scary stories (see 1 & 2 above).
This technique is so effective, it's almost scary. But I want you to use this because it really moves people to action... BUT I HAVE A QUESTION FOR YOU:
Here's my question: doesn't this technique amount to blatant manipulation of your group? Shouldn't you feel guilty for playing on people's emotions just to bring in business and money?
Okay, so that was 2 questions... post your answers here, and I'll also go further into this soon and give you my thoughts and feelings on those 2 very important questions.
Stay tuned!
