Presenting Powerfully Persuasive Programs
by Terry Brock

You know that you need to make presentations. You know that you have to communicate effectively and get your message across. You also know that you need to use programs like Microsoft PowerPoint, LCD projectors and more, but just don’t know where to begin.

This program is designed to help business people present more powerfully than ever before. Master the skills needed to get your ideas across to groups of two or two thousand. With the right coaching you can present messages like never before.

The unique benefit to you about Terry’s program on presenting is that you learn BOTH the soft skills and the hard skills. You’ll learn about communicating positively and persuasively to audiences whether or not you use computers and technology.

This session is guaranteed to be lively, entertaining and packed with solid content you can use! Bring your questions, your notepads and get ready for an update to answer your questions.

What You Will Learn:

  • Preparation. Discover creative ways to tap into a wealth of information available to you through sources like the Internet (where to look and where NOT to look!), magazines, etc. This aspect alone is worth the price of admission if you’re developing content and material for your program.
  • Dealing with the Fear. Overcome the fear that is associated with public speaking. Learn how you can present information with certainty and connect with that audience. You’ll be amazed at how you can transform yourself (and thereby your presentation!) into a "connection session" versus just a little speech.
  • Presentations in the Age of PowerPoint. OK, OK, OK! Enough already! You’ve heard about the benefits of using PowerPoint, LCD projectors, LCD Panels and more. In this hard-hitting session you’ll get specific, real-world, up-to-the-minute recommendations on what you can use and do. Terry has presented to thousands of people on 4 different continents. See how to handle the inevitable glitches that come up and look good no matter what! Learn the inside secrets from a seasoned road warrior without having to endure the pain yourself!
  • Dealing with a Tough Audience. So, what do you do when they don’t want to be there? How do you handle the obstinate SOB who claims to know it all? How to you handle the audience that falls asleep? These topics and more are address so you can deal with them as a professional without falling into the mud to combat them. Learn how the art of Judo can help you overcome this (Terry has taught Judo previously and shows you how the principles of this ancient Japanese defense style can benefit you in presentations).
  • Humor: How to Handle it. "Ok, so a priest, a minister and a rabbi are walking into this bar, see…" Learn how to use humor to your advantage. Do you have to start with a joke? What if you don’t feel you are "naturally" funny. Learn from examples of what the masters have done and do to use humor effectively. Bonus: Learn where to get really funny stuff and use it so that it delivers a laugh every time.
  • Tools You’ll Need. Learn which technological tools can best help you and how to make them work in your situation. Terry gets down to the nitty gritty on this so you can have effective sales presentations, informative speeches and more through the power of technology. If you use a laptop or are considering it, you MUST have this stuff! It will save you untold hours of grief and help you realize enormous benefits!
  • Using Video, Sound and Motion. In today's environment, programs presented from the computer are commonplace. However, just because you use a computer doesn't mean that you are getting the point across that you want. Terry will deal with real-world, nitty-gritty applications of how to make still pictures work (both from some of the latest digital cameras and frame capture), capture sound (watch some handy, easy ways to grab sound that cost less than $35.00!) and movies (you'll be amazed at how you can put live motion pictures into your program at full screen, full motion quality--- MPEG-1 presentations!).
  • Your Questions. Get answers to your hottest questions about presenting

Don’t wait any longer. You know that presenting is a powerful way for you to get ahead in business and in your career. The better you are at communicating fully with others and getting your message across in a pleasantly persuasive style, the faster you’ll achieve the goals you want in your life.

Added Bonus: Terry will work with you and your group to give you customized material that can relate to what you need. It is more than just idle talk and chatter. You’ll learn specific ways to be more effective in your next presentation.
