Going Out of Business Liquidation Sale ?

Yes, it's true. I'm going out of the audiotape business because my demand for CDs is so great. . .

This means you save bigtime. I'm liquidating my entire line of audiotapes (37 in all) with savings up to 72 percent.

This outrageous liquidation is good until midnight, Thursday, December 30th and inventory is limited so act right away.

When they're gone . . . they're gone. (I'll contact you to refund if we run out of what you want).

Bonus:

Order any tape and you'll get an email telling you where you can get any of my 16 ebooks at half price.

Also:
Check out the "Super Bundle" where you'll get all 37 tapes at a fraction of their retail value.

The information is great . . . it's just the format that's changed. Take advantage of my overstock right away.

Happy New Year

P.S. I want to get rid of these tapes so bad I'm also giving you free shipping on anything you order.

P.S.S. Anyone ordering the "Super Bundle" gets a complimentary website critique worth 500 bucks.

P.S.S.S. All tapes are certified to work properly. Many were recorded via teleseminar so don't expect studio quality. Also, I have no clue how I'm going to package all these tapes. I'll surprise you :)

Public Speaking Checklist

Public Speaking Preparation Checklist
Questions to ask the Meeting Coordinator:

  • What does the organizer want to accomplish because of my appearance?
  • Why was I chosen?
  • How many people are expected to be in the audience?
  • What are their job responsibilities?
  • What is the male/female ratio?
  • What time am I supposed to speak?
  • What is on the program just before I speak?
  • What is on the program just after I speak?
  • What is the conference title and theme?
  • Who will introduce me?
  • Who are the other speakers on the program?
  • What kind of seating is being used?
  • What kind of microphone and A/V equipment is available?
  • May I have a list of expected attendees so that I may interview some of them for a few minutes by phone in advance of the program? (this is probably the most powerful technique I know of to really connect with the audience when you speak. I always interview at least 15 audience members.)


Questions to ask the interviewees

  • With regard to the topic I am presenting on, what are the three biggest challenges you face in completing your daily duties? (then let them talk)
  • Do you have any interesting stories about things that have happened to you while you were working?

Questions to ask yourself

  • Considering all the answers I got from the phone interviews, what are the three (or five depending on how much time you have) greatest areas of concern for the attendees.
  • What material do I have that can specifically address those concerns?
  • What stories do I have that will help them remember my points?
  • What visuals will I use?
  • What props will I use?
  • What should I include in the written introduction that I prepare for my introducer that will be appropriate for this audience.
  • How will I open the presentation?
  • How long will I go before I have a break?
  • What forms of audience interaction will I use?
  • In what form, and how much humor will I use?
  • Will I provide a handout, and if so, what should it include?
  • What will I do and say in case of an emergency (running out of the room screaming is not an option here)?
  • Should I have a Question & Answer session, or should I entertain questions as they come up?
  • How will I close the presentation?
  • How much and when will I practice this presentation?
  • How will I stay calm before the presentation?
