Even presentations by accountants can be fun
I heard a great presentation this morning in Southampton. I was attending the 4N Networking group and had the pleasure of hearing local accountant David Anderson give a ten minute insight slot on how to use tour financial reports to improve your business.
So what was it that made Davids talk stand out?
He had a great opening : “How would you like to make an extra £2000 this year?” –
He kept his content simple: He focused in on 4 key ratios that help to asses business health
His delivery was engaging: Despite using a script, he made excellent eye contact with us all, used appropriate gestures and vocal variety and he responded well to audience comments and questions
He had a strong memorable conclusion: He summarised to reinforce his key messages and he rewarded us with a fantastic cup cake made by his wife!
In short he implemented many of the suggestions I had made when I delivered my own 4sight speech at the Winchester group a couple of weeks earlier. well done David.
