Fearless Presentations
Create a Business Proposal Presentation
For the last few weeks, I've covered a number of topics about how to create great presentations. And on social media, I've received a few questions like, "What does a presentation design have to do with public speaking fear?"
The answer is simple. If you try to deliver a terrible speech to any audience, you'll be way more nervous. However, if you design a fantastic speech, you may never even get nervous in the first place. If your audience likes and respects your content, they will overlook a lot of minor glitches.
The opposite is true as well. If your presentation stinks, every minor glitch in your delivery will be exaggerated.
Last week, we covered a simple three-step process to help you deliver more persuasive speeches. This week, I will elaborate on that topic a little more. We will focus on a specific type of persuasive presentation - a proposal speech.
This can cover any type of business proposal, including sales presentations, presenting your ideas in a staff meeting or team meeting, or even something as simple as trying to get your boss to change vendors.
Remember that for most people, keeping the status quo is less risky than trying something new. So, these types of presentations need a little more finesse than just a normal informational presentation.
In this episode, I'll take you step-by-step through the process.
