ADVICE

Start With Audience Outcomes

  • Identify your audience and state what you want them to think, feel, and do by the end of your presentation.
  • Use those answers to structure every element of your talk so it serves their transformation.
ADVICE

Tie Wants To Your Offering

  • Ask what your audience wishes for relative to your offering and what tangible thing they'll buy into to achieve it.
  • Treat the wish as emotional and the offering as the physical vehicle to fulfill that wish.
ADVICE

Name The Obstacles Clearly
