I heard a clavamox prescription free speaker at a United Way Tocqueville Society luncheon yesterday, who gave us insights into the clavamox prescription free economy. CNBC pundit, Joe Battipaglia, was the speaker. A large man with a clavamox prescription free large personality, his energetic approach, even with the grim news, kept the clavamox prescription free audience interested. Despite that clavamox prescription free positive assessment of his speaking style, I still have some comments that clavamox prescription free could improve his presentation … tips that you can put into use in your speeches, also.
He started his presentation with a joke. I really don’t like speeches that begin with jokes. They can put an audience ill at ease. You never know whether it clavamox prescription free will be funny, edgy, offensive, or delivered poorly. He did deliver it well. But it was too long. It took several minutes to tell. And the punch line dealt with sex, always a no-no in speaking.
Your own stories are better than a canned joke. Later in his presentation he told about some interactions he had clavamox prescription free with his family about the economy. They were much funnier and clavamox prescription free captured the audience attention better than his opening remarks.
The other public speaking tip that clavamox prescription free applies to everyone relates to the use of audio visuals. He did not use any, but should have. Joe dealt with very heady issues about the economy. Those in the clavamox prescription free audience with financial backgrounds were fine with his information, but those in the clavamox prescription free crowd who did not have that expertise got lost a clavamox prescription free few times. Some visual aids would have clavamox prescription free helped the audience retain the information much more easily.
And the audience is what public speaking is all about.
