THIS WEEK AT STARK RAVING ENTREPRENEURS / MARCH 8, 2023
Are you being asked to give increasingly abbreviated presentations?
Are you finding your speaking slots shrinking from 45 minutes... to 25 minutes... to 5 minutes or less?
Are you struggling to fit your content and engagement into smaller and smaller containers?
Meeting and event organizers have embraced the convenience and lower cost of virtual events, and that convenience has also led to speakers being asked to deliver their messages in shorter and shorter time frames.
If you think micro means you can wing it, prepare at the last minute, or roll into the next speaker's time... you're going to struggle with micro-speaking slots.
Micro-presentations are unique, and you have to approach them differently from your other presentations, with meticulous preparation, practice, and razor-sharp timing.
In this session, Lisa will show you exactly how to:
- Leverage the "power of five" (minutes!) to create a concise, crisp, and compelling presentation.
- Inspire your audience to take action without brain-dumping, fire-hosing, or stealing your audience's precious time.
- Design a clear and concise journey that your audience can easily navigate.
- Include audience engagement in a tight time frame.
- Cut the fat, the flat, and the fluff!
