Here's how I'm going to do it." "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."

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...
