I\u2019ve been listening to a few presentations recently. Notably, one of our clients, NonProfitThrive.com is going into a beta launch soon. Nicole, the founder, is refining a great presentation designed to generate awareness for the new application. Our team has been delighted to provide feedback so she can get the most benefit from her 15-minute pitch. Nicole has been doing an outstanding job.<\/p>\n

I was reminded of Warren Buffett\u2019s comment about buying a car<\/a>. He states, “I don’t remember how much I paid, but I remember the experience I had.\u201d Compelling stories have a way of making a person feel, and people buy based on their feelings. So, tell them a story, in such a way as to make your audience feel the way you want them to feel. So, what do you want your audience to feel? Many business owners don\u2019t even know.<\/p>\n

Most business owners focus on communicating what amounts to bullet-pointed lists of what their businesses do. Their competitors are doing the same.

Did you find yourself in agreement with his message? Did it FEEL compelling? It did to me. The delivery was great, yet, his content did nothing to prove he was \u201cthought leader.\u201d<\/p>\n

How much do you concern yourself with how you present yourself or your product or service? If you\u2019re spending 80% of your efforts determining what to say, and 20% on how to say it, I invite you to switch that formula around. Your delivery is paramount, and your brand equity and sales will show it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
