It is your moment to shine!


Having great ideas is simply not enough in everyday business life. You have to be able to sell those ideas as well to convince investors. Mary Civiello, a presentation and media trainer, gave the following 4 tips to Fortune Magazine so as to give everyone the possibility to shine!

1. ‘Start your presentation by asking: what is the one thing I want them to remember if they remember nothing else?’ As your audience will forget most of what you will be saying, it is important to stress the most important parts of your speech. You have to say it early and clearly.
2. ‘Do you look and sound like you do in a conversation? Think about your talk in terms of moods, not just information.‘ You should sound and look different when you are, for instance, trying to convince someone or just giving an example.
3. ‘Are you mixing it up? Remember to hit the “Refresh” button.’ If you do not want to lose your audience, you have to bring variation into your speech. You could tell anecdotes, use amusing pictures on your slides, ask rhetorical questions or walk around the room sometimes.
4. ‘Do you think your presentation begins at 9 a.m., or the moment you drive in the parking lot? Recognize that “communication” begins the moment you arrive.’

Bearing these tips in mind, your presentation is bound to be an overwhelming success!

  1. Hello everyone, I'm Patricia Sherman in Oklahoma USA right now. I would like to share with you my experience of borrowing USD 185,000.00 to clear my bank draft and start a new business. It all started when I lost my house and I took my stuff because of the bank policy and I met some bills and some personal needs. So I became very desperate and started looking for funds in every way. Fortunately for me, a friend of mine, Linda told me about a credit company firm, I was intrigued by the fraud, but I was intrigued by my situation and had no choice but to get advice from my friend about this company. contacting them really doubted me because of my past experience with online lenders, did you know that little? '' Elegantloanfirm@hotmail.com This company has been very helpful to me and my colleague and today, thanks to this credit company, the proud owner of well-organized work and responsibilities, they smiled back at me. So if you really need to grow or start your own business, or if you really need to borrow money in any financial hardship, we recommend you find a financial development opportunity in your business today. {E-mail:} Elegantloanfirm@hotmail.com ... online for credit not a victim of scam. Thank you.
