Ever wonder how to connect with an audience quickly?
If you had 2 minutes to engage and inspire an audience, how would you start?
The start of your presentation is critical to setting up your credibility, to having the audience eager to learn, and to having them want to work with you further.
In this week’s Awaken TV episode, it’s all about Awakening Your Impact and Inspiring Change through speaking, particularly how to open the speech powerfully and authentically.
Check it out here, so you always have a great opening line.
We are in Australia this week, and we get to work here because we have a presentation that works! We have studied and taught speaking for years, so check out the video and gain from our experience.
This week we are opening registrations for our 2015 Authentic Speaker Academy. Watch this week’s video for your speaking tip and then check out the opportunity to be in a small group that we help become world-class presenters and triple their income through speaking . . . quickly! Visit http://AuthenticSpeakerAcademy.com to apply.
Much love,
P.S. This is the first of our Awaken TV Down Under Series. Look out for some cool videos from sunny Australia in the next few weeks. We are having a ton of fun teaching our Aussie friends how to own the stage.
Hi Rachel,
Great advice. My aha was the question “Can you relate?” I love that.
See you in your next Awaken TV video

Thank you, Gitte for your note!
Happy to hear that was an aha.

Thanks so much. I am training as a teacher but I can relate so much to this. Teaching isn’t that different from presenting. In fact, we forget too often that students will only take in the message when they relate to t hat. So next week I have to give my first class and I will take this as a very big element in my preparation!
Wonderful, Neelia!
Let us know how it goes~

Oh yes, what a great episode of Awaken TV. I love the clarity of your message and exercise. Also love how you ask us to start with the wants of the client and then relate to ourselves, instead of other way around. Thank you so much Rachael Jayne for continuing to inspire me. Love and blessings, Wilka
You are so welcome, Wilka.
Thank you for your note,

PPS is there a way I can get my picture in the little box? These grey squares look so dull…. 🙂 so not feminine, hihi
Thank you so much for sharing your wisdom + experience! Creating videos is the next step on my entrepreneurial journey + I can’t wait to implement these speaking tips so I can really connect with my audience. You + your team rock!
