Tips for improving the first impressions you create
First impressions really do count, whether you are making a full blown presentation complete with PowerPoint , or you just speaking informally to clients, colleagues or networking group members. You probably spend enough time preparing your content but do you spend enough time thinking about your delivery?
Whilst I see and hear some outstanding elevator pitches , I also see far too many that are pretty poor. This is a shame as it creates doubt in your clients mind which may well stop them from buying your product or service. It’s tough enough out there without making things any harder than they absolutely need to be. So follow the tips in this short video to learn how you could improve the way your customers and prospective customers view you and your products.
Happy Easter.

Good advice Gavin.
The ‘how’ is always more important than the ‘what’.
Although the best presenters will combine the two. A good role model for us to follow can be seen in the recent iPad product launch. You can read a critique of Jobs’ presentation here:
