Creating a Clear Storyline

all right in the previous lesson, you've selected your key messages in a way that was simple enough for your audience to understand and remember what you say in this lesson, We need to start talking about another criterion of the presentations called method simple, clear, original related and enjoyable, it's related to the audience, we've covered that, it's simple now, we also need to make it clear, remember the method simple, clear or regional related and enjoyable. Let's make it clear Now, here is the thing, depending on your audience, depending on what they need, depending on your objective, depending on the context, there are certain clear storylines that work better than others. And in the next lessons, I want to introduce those possibilities to you and here's the thing, if you pick because of course you will need to develop then your own storyline as part of this course, if you choose one of these possibilities or a combination of them and I'm going to explain also how you can co...

Sometimes you want to sell an idea maybe and if that's the case the sales speech is the storyline for you. I'm also going to introduce the board presentation.

I was just beginning to create a series of presentations when I noticed this course. Serendipity! I thought I knew what I was doing, but learned some great techniques. More importantly I learned what NOT to do. Now I have much more confidence in the process.
