Marketing Sherpa just put up a very nice post with
15 Tips on Behavior, Visuals & Rehearsing.

Actually this "Handy Guide To Speaking Like A Pro" was from an interview with Garr Reynolds and me, with some pointers on creating a great communication experience with your personality and when you are using PowerPoints and giving a Web 2.0 presentation.

The top three tips:Powerpoint

  1. Make Eye Contact (rather than looking at your slides, etc.)
  2. Use Black Blank Slides (rather than giving an illustrated text lecture.)
  3. Record Your Presentation (to get very valuable feedback.)

Worth looking at for many more pointers …..

    Unfortunately, the article of Marketing Sherpa is only for subscribers. Of course, you can registrate… and receive spam forever.
    Marketing Sherpa is a very bad exemple of marketing. They dont’t know the Internet.
    Sorry Bert, but I hate this “free subscriptions”.
