"I'm going to show you 5 steps to deliver
a killer opener."
If you're watching this, you probably already
know that delivering great presentations is
critical to advance your career, but did you
know that research says that most adults will
stop listening to your presentation within
the first 10 minutes if they aren't convinced
there's something in it for them?
The problem is that most people don't know
about the skills they need to hook their audience,
give a great presentation, and overcome their
fear of doing it.
What am I going to do?
Hi Jim.
How's it going?
I'm freaking out about this big presentation
I have to give tomorrow.
Well did you write out your opener and practice
it three times?
No.
No?
Why not?
I'm terrified and I don't even know where
to start.
Trust me, I've been in that situation before
and it's not fun.
So to help you out, I'm going to show you
my 5 step formula to deliver a killer presentation
opener every time.
Let's start off with step number one, which
is "Give a Confident Introduction."
One of the biggest mistakes people make when
they start their presentation is showing nervousness.
Here's the key: It's not whether you're nervous,
it's whether you show it.
The first thing you need to do is stand STILL.
Don't move.
Don't pace, and keep your hands at your sides.
This is the most calm and confident stance
on the planet, and it handles the number 1
need of your audience which is to feel safe.
Now you can introduce yourself and say "Hi,
my name is Jason Teteak."
When you do this, bring your inflection down
at the end to show confidence.
Instead of: "Hi, my name is Jason Teteak?"
Say: "Hi, my name is Jason Teteak."
See the difference?
Now we move on to step 2, which is Give Your
Credentials.
This is where many presenters make the mistake
of simply giving their title and years of
experience.
They say something like "I'm a presentation
skills coach and I've been doing it for 20
years."
Yet, your audience wants to know: "What can
you do for me?"
They need to know who you are, why you're
the best person to deliver this presentation,
and what you have to offer them.
For example, I might say "I help people overcome
their fear of public speaking and deliver
amazing presentations."
What would that look like for you?
To figure this out, you need a short elevator
speech.
It looks like this: "You know how some people
have this problem?
Well I offer this solution."
The solution you offer is how you help people.
For me, it was: "You know how some people
have a fear of public speaking and a have
hard time getting their message across in
a presentation?
Well, I help them overcome their fear of public
speaking and deliver amazing presentations."
What's your credentials statement?
You'll be amazed at the effect this has on
your audience.
Step 3 is to "Deliver Your Hook."
My hook for this video presentation might
look something like this "I'm going to show
you how to captivate your audience within
the first 5 minutes of your presentation."
When you do this, you have to get your audience
to "feel" something.
How do you get them to feel?
You have 3 choices.
You can get them to feel more happy, more
successful, or more free.
Look at my hook.
I said "I'm going to show you how to captivate
your audience within the first 5 minutes of
your presentation."
When you captivate your audience within the
first 5 minutes of your presentation, you'll
feel happier because they are listening to
you, you'll feel more successful because you
look like an expert, and you'll feel more
freedom when you spend less time worrying
about your presentation the night before.
Here's the practical for you.
For your presentation, write down the words
"I'm going to show you..." then fill in the
rest with something that's going to create
more happiness, success, or freedom for your
audience.
Here's the rule.
You can't tell them WHAT they're going to
get until you've told them WHY they would
want it.
Your hook has to be something that gets them
to BELIEVE that they want what you're going
to give them.
Take a moment right now and write down WHY
your presentation will make your audience
more happy, successful or free in their life.
And now we move on to step number 4, which
is to "Introduce Your Agenda."
I recommend you use a PowerPoint for this
step, and the slide should look something
like this.
The purpose of this step is to show your audience
the takeaways for your presentation -- the
things they get to "take away" and use tomorrow
after listening to your presentation.
Don't read the slide.
They're adults.
They can read.
Instead, just give them a moment to read it
themselves, and introduce your agenda by summarizing
what you'll be doing.
You do this by mentioning the number of takeaways
you'll be giving them, and paraphrasing the
goal of your presentation.
Here's what it looks like:
"I'm going to show you 5 steps to deliver
a killer opener."
What would this look like for you?
The last step is Step 5 Give a Credible Statement.
You can do this by giving relevant or compelling
data to your audience to support your message.
Remember how I did this at the beginning of
this video?
I said, "You probably already know that delivering
great presentations is critical to advance
your career, but did you know that research
says that most adults will stop listening
to your presentation within the first 10 minutes
if they aren't convinced there's something
in it for them?"
When you do this within the first 2 minutes
of your presentation, your audience starts
to trust you.
Without bragging, your listeners start to
think "oooh this guy knows what he's talking
about"
Done.
When I put those 5 steps together, it sounds
like this:
"Hi, I'm Jason Teteak.
I help people overcome their fear of public
speaking and deliver amazing presentations
and today I'm going to show you how to captivate
your audience within the first 5 minutes of
your presentation.
Here's how I'm going to do it."
"I'm going to show you 5 steps to deliver
a killer opener."
"You probably already know that delivering
great presentations is critical to advance
your career, but did you know that research
says that most adults will stop listening
to your presentation within the first 10 minutes
if they aren't convinced there's something
in it for them?"
Wow!
