How much fuller would your life, your mind, and even your bank account be if you lost your fear of rejection? What are you avoiding by allowing your fear of rejection to thrive? In today's show we're going to discuss how fear of rejection influences your behavior in negative ways, and how worrying about being rejected actually leads to the outcome you're trying to avoid. (Being rejected). What are you avoiding? Time to be introspective. Write down your answers. Are you avoiding proactive lead generation? Do you avoid talking about real estate with anyone you don't already know? Lead Follow Up? Do you try once and then convince yourself that your prospect must not be motivated or that they just didn't like you? Do you avoid closing because you don't want to hear NO? Higher average sale prices? Are you afraid you'll be rejected because you're out of your comfort zone? Are you afraid of becoming a powerful listing agent? I did some research on the topic of overcoming rejection. It turns out you're not alone! From Ted Talks… Jia Jiang boldly adventures into a territory so many of us fear: rejection. By seeking out rejection for 100 days — from asking a stranger to borrow $100 to requesting a “burger refill” at a restaurant — Jiang desensitized himself to the pain and shame that rejection often brings and discovered that simply asking for what you want can open up possibilities where you expect to find dead ends. What did he discover? How does this apply to your real estate world? 1 His childhood fear had haunted him into adulthood! Rejection at age 6 followed him for years. So he decided to create 100 days of rejection to deep dive into his challenge. *What rejection are you still hanging on to and how long ago did it occur? Isn't it time to let that go? (cue Elsa's song ‘Let it Go!' from Frozen!) 2 He learned that it wasn't the initial rejection, it was the fact that he had no plan, no presentation, and a fear of closing. *Hmmm, this sounds a lot like real estate issues… consider the fact that winging it all the time keeps you on the path of rejection because the definition of ‘close' is ‘the logical ending to a GREAT Presentation!' If you're not using scripts and presentations, it makes sense that you live in fear of rejection or objections. This is easily curable through Premier Coaching. 3 Jia did the equivalent of ‘earn while you learn', by creating experiences on purpose, experiences where he was likely to be rejected. Asking for $100 from a stranger, asking for a ‘burger refill', and asking to be a ‘Starbucks Greeter', for example! 4 He learned to not quit, to not give up. He developed what we call ‘stick-to-it-iveness', the intuition that you must stick to it to succeed! The average 'close' in a sales situation occurs after asking 5 to 8 times.

How a Great Presentation is Like a Fine Meal #454 The Tao Te Ching says that in order to be light on your feet you need a steady mind. That's what it takes to entertain guests during this holiday season. Right? A lot can go wrong, but it can be dealt with when you expect problems. The same is true during a sales call. Adept sellers are proficient at juggling a number of balls at once. Each presentation is a full course meal. You don't want to serve up too much of any one dish during the meal. It takes balance and patience. That's the topic for today, how a great presentation is like a fine meal.

When you hear an excellent presentation, it is easy to be well satisfied. When you are giving such a presentation and the audience are wolfing down your information, it is also easy to be self satisfied. The good is the enemy of the great we say, don't we. The difficulty is when things are going so well, to know exactly how to take them to a higher level. I was attending such a presentation recently and the speaker was very, very good. The content was right on topic, for an area which has real attention grabbing power for audiences. The room was a sell out. That is always a good thing isn't it, when people are flocking to hear you pontificate on your topic. The information itself was fresh, new, well designed and cleverly arranged in terms of the cadence of the argument. The actual delivery was probably one of the best that that particular business audience will see in a long, long time. All good, so how to make something already working extremely well even better? This is not easy, but I did notice one thing which I thought could have been added and it may be something that we can all consider when we are constructing our own presentations. When we are delivering an “inform style” of presentation, of course we need to be clear, concise and on topic. We also need to have crisp information which is new to the audience, so that they feel they were in the box seats for a very value deep presentation. This presentation knocked it out of the park in that regard. When we are doing that inform type of presentation, we can be spending quite a big chunk of our time on the broad brush strokes of industry direction, the shape of the trend, the predictions for the future. This is great because as audience members, we are getting treated to a business equivalent of a massive star show of the outer galaxies, like we will see in a Planetarium . Future direction is good, but to really take our talk to the highest possible level, we need to do one more thing. We need to connect this broad and scale based projection analysis to the day to day reality of our punters in the audience. The talk I attended could have gone one more step and have reached out to the audience, with some steps they could take to connect the information with their daily challenges. It didn't have to morph into a complete “how to” presentation, but the inclusion of a few takeaways would have been the super icing on the cake. The problem is that usually we are so wrapped up in the macro scale of what we are talking about, particularly when we are involved in discussing broad orientational changes in an industry, that it is easy to get stuck at that general direction level. We are fully focused on the big picture. We need to pick up around three things the audience can walk out with, which they can put into immediate action, to link the macro with the micro. There are bound to be things that our audience can do, as a result of hearing this speech, which will better prepare them and their companies for the coming changes. Everyone wants to know what is coming down the pike and what they need to do be ready for it. The addition of these concrete steps brings the talk even more alive and makes it more relevant for our audience. Why three? Of course, we could probably list ten or twenty items, but the smaller number is easier for the audience to apply, without feeling overwhelmed. Trying to make too many changes too quickly, usually results in nothing getting done. Three is also good as a quantity because it has volume, which gives the talk a greater feeling of worth and credibility. These three points are sufficiently significant, without being off putting, onerous or burdensome for the audience. So the next time you are giving a presentation of the “inform” variety, look carefully at your macro points and try and pull out some practical steps, some juicy takeaways, that the audience can feast on and integrate into their own businesses straight away. If you do this, they will leave the room with a sense of they have seen the future and they are better prepared with some practical steps to deal with it. You will have elevated an excellent speech to the highest of levels and your personal and professional brands will also be soaring.

When it comes to a great presentation there is multiple steps I use that I have been using for the last decade that work for any product or service you may be providing. 1. Go over the reason you are speaking today, what led them to you, why do they need your product or service?2. Go over full details of your product, cost, process, the way it works, what to expect, etc. 3. List all the benefits of using your product or service, and connect to them and their lives personally.4. End it with a emotional tie in specific to them.5. Recap again and end with emotional tie in again.6. Closehttps://linktr.ee/AcezAcademy#sales #phonesales #presentationSupport the show

About the book We don't need better speakers. We need more effective leaders. This book isn't a primer on becoming a better speaker, though if it helps you nail your next presentation that's great. The real goal is to help you become a more effective leader. In ‘Lead The Room' you're invited to think bigger and aim higher than the idea of presentation skills. To think holistically about how you can communicate and connect more effectively. This book will give you the tools to raise your visibility, leverage your leadership platform and lead with more impact at scale. Source: https://shanemhatton.com/ About the author Shane works with organisations to develop remarkable people leaders. The kind that you talk about and remember. Put simply he helps shift people leaders from high potential to high performance and from great to remarkable so that executive leaders can move from transactional to strategic. His clients tell him that his‘secret sauce' is the ability to bring clarity to their thinking and simplicity to complexity. Shane is an author, trainer, coach and speaker based out of Melbourne, Australia and works online, onstage and in person. He's a member of the Forbes Global Coaches Council, a Gallup Certified Strengths Coach and the author of ‘Lead The Room — Communicate a Message That Counts in Moments That Matter' (available in all good bookstores). Source: https://shanemhatton.com/ Big idea #1 — Who, what, and when This goes to the idea that a great presentation or great communication is all in the preparation. Shane says “there's more to leading a room than being a great speaker or delivering a polished presentation”. He shares a couple of examples in the book of where he saw two different speakers at a conference. One of them had a super polished presentation, but the audience looked bored and disengaged. The second presenter, was visibly a little bit nervous, probably less experienced as a presenter, but had everyone leaning in and enraptured by their energy and the engagement. Most of us worry about how to present. We worry about things like ‘what to do with our hands' and ‘where to stand' or ‘how to move', without actually thinking about the who and the what of a presentation or communication. The who is who you are, what's your reputation, how credible are you? The what is what you say? Is it clear, succinct, and valuable? How is delivering in a way that connects, and using the appropriate medium or the method that connects. Big idea #2-positioning, messaging and developing This is the core idea and provides the structure of the book. It's the ‘three big obsessions' of great communicators. Positioning is all about developing your character, leading your narrative, and building your credibility. This allows you to position yourself as someone who can be trusted in a particular topic. This requires you to manage your reputation, making sure that you're showing up consistently and being authentic in your values and your behaviours. Messaging is determining your value. Shane describes this as comparing the the ‘boardroom versus the bedroom' problems that your audience might be worrying about. Boardroom problems might be things like ‘I'm worried about our staff attrition', or the slightly more surface topics. Whereas the bedroom problems are what you might only admit to your closest confidants. Things like ‘I'm worried that I'm not relevant anymore', or ‘I'm worried that my job is at risk'. By determining your value, you can make sure that you actually get to the heart of the problem, likely the ‘bedroom' problems, rather than the surface issues. Then you can define your message, and think about the structure of any presentation or communication that you are putting together. Finally, developing is the evolution of the craft and getting better at thinking, investing, asking, and failing so that your communication skills and style continues to evolve and develop. Big idea #3 — The flight path For the rough structure of presentation or a communication, Shane uses the analogy of the flight path, or the preparation, takeoff, in-flight, and the landing. The five parts of the flight path are; Attention; getting people's attention upfront by asking a question, making a statement (maybe a controversial one), or telling a story. Tension; giving people a reason to stay engaged by painting a picture of a vision of the future, or really getting into the pain points people are feeling. Perspective; sharing some stats or some research, or key thoughts on the idea or the topic. Resolution; the ‘what then' question, or the big idea you're sharing. Action; what should people do next? What is the one thing that they could go and do as a result of you sharing this particular idea?

We speak with Dr. Simon Raybould from Presentation Genius. Simon started his career as a research scientist and then moved into a new field when he noticed that the quality of a presentation is equally as important as the data that you are sharing. At Presentation Genuis, Simon shares the science of what works for people when they present. During the episode, we cover three key topics. We start by talking about planning and I ask how far in advance we should start to prepare. We then talk about the presentation slides. I ask questions on what to include, how many slides, using video content, and more. To finish, we talk about the things that you can do on the day of your speech to ensure that things go smoothly. Simon's advice can also be applied to webinars, sales pitches, and anything else that includes a presentation.
You've designed a great presentation. Now you need a great ending to drive your points home. In this session, we cover a few presentation endings that you want to avoid at all costs. (One of these is question & answer periods, by the way.) We also give you a little bonus tip to help you properly set up your speech ending so you get a better response. Then, we end with seven (7) different types of presentation closes that give you a number of different options.To make choosing a good ending even easier, we have created a guide in the form of a free handout that you can download at https://www.fearlesspresentations.com/how-to-end-your-presentation-with-a-bang/
‘‘What humans care about is intent. What the other person means to us, and how we can communicate our intent towards them. And in the process, we unconsciously apply the use of body language to achieve this'' – Nick Morgan Joining us on the show today is one of America's top communication speaker, theorist, and coach. Nick Morgan is an ardent and dedicated teacher who is committed to helping individuals find and master precision and focus on their thoughts and ideas and executing them with a dash of charisma and confidence. His numerous accolades, successful speaking and communication-related careers, worldwide affirmation, and historic contributions have seen Nick leave his footprints in the sands of public speaking, storytelling, and communication industries. His reputation precedes him, and he is undoubtedly one of the most gifted and skilled communication theorists worldwide. Nick has authored books for Harvard Business Press, some of which include; - On running a meeting (2002) - Working the Room: How to Move People to Action Through Audience-Centred Speaking (2003) - Give Your Speech, Change the World: How To Move Your Audience to Action (2005) - Power Cues: The Subtle Science of Leading Groups, Persuading Others, and Maximizing Your Personal Impact on (2014) Some of his other notable masterpieces include; - Trust Me: Four Steps to Authenticity and Charisma (2008) - Steps to a Great Speech (2010) - How to Read Body Language (2011) - The King's Speech (2014) - How to Tell Great Business Stories (2011) - How to Give a Great Presentation (2012) - Can You Hear Me? : How to Connect with People in a Virtual World (2018) When he was only 17 years, Nick was seriously injured from a toboggan injury. This life-changing accident would leave Nick in a coma where he died for 15 minutes. After being shocked back to life, the doctors and nurses ran tests to see if his brain was still functioning. He tested fine but had lost his ability to read body language. After so much struggle, Nick had to retrain himself step by step, by studying other people's body language. His interest and expertise in the communications field grew every day, leading to his entry into a related career where he taught Shakespeare at the University of Virginia and Princeton University and wrote political speeches for the Governor of Virginia Charles Robb. Nick would go on to found his own communications consulting company in 1997.

This is show 2 of a 6 part series on how to get more leads. Be sure and watch the other five shows in this series (or listen to the five other shows on the podcast (player and link at the bottom of the article below).One of the most effective ways to get more leads is through public speaking. By learning how to deliver an effective presentation, you can leverage your position as a speaker to generate leads and get client referrals.Public speaking is effective because it produces instant credibility. Someone invited you and introduced you on stage. No matter what you're selling, you'll be seen as the expert in that product or service because you're the only one speaking.Watch this episode on YouTube:[embedyt] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_1qyNgMeEUw[/embedyt]Another benefit is that it creates rapid relationship development. You're talking to 100 people and they're carrying on a conversation in their minds. This means that all of those people will have thought about you and what you're offering, which brings you that much closer to working together.These benefits can help you immensely in building up a client base. However, it's important to know how to deliver an effective presentation that will indeed allow you to reap these benefits. Speaking engagements are considered lead generation activities only if you actually end up with leads.In order to get leads, you'll need some way to qualify the audience in terms of their interest. For example, you can create a free report on the topic that you've chosen to give a speech on and offer it to people during the event. Those who express interest in the free report will then become your potential clients because you know that they've heard you and are possibly looking to go further.Whether it's a keynote address, a breakout session, or a training session, public speaking can be one of the best lead generation activities if you know how to deliver an effective presentation. Get in front of people and create value. That's how you get more clients.Listen to the podcast:Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

A few days ago, I started watching a Netflix documentary on how fractal mathematics helped start Pixar. (Yes, I watch really boring stuff on Netflix, but in my defense, I was watching it in bed, at night, trying to go to sleep. It worked.) We have always had a fantastic success teaching people how to design presentations that are based on just a few (three to five) main points. However, the documentary explained how the structure of this type of presentation works and why it works so well. So, in this episode, we’ll show how the techniques that we cover in our classes work… mathematically. We also have a Techfind that will help you add local humor to your presentations.TechFind: Use Google to Add Humor to Any PresentationWhen I first started speaking and writing, I was always looking for ways to add humor to my presentations. At the time, Dr. Phil was a regular on the Prah Winfrey show, and eventually, he got his own daytime TV show. Whenever he made an appearance on Oprah, he always got a lot of laughs because he added a lot of Texas idioms to his speech. (In fact, Dr. Phil was the first person to ever use the phrase “Open up a can of whoop-ass” on national television.) So, I figured that since I am also from Texas, if I added some uniquely Texas sayings into my presentations, my speeches might get even funnier. It worked.The great news, now, is that Google (or any other search engine) can makes finding the perfect idiom for your speech pretty easy. Just type your region into the search engine and add the word Idiom. When I typed up Texas Idiom, I got a bunch of funny saying such as…If you cut your own firewood, it’ll warm you twice.He can strut sitting down.She’d charge hell with a bucket of ice water.Busy as a stump-tailed bull in fly season.Okay, this technique doesn’t work for every state or region, but you’d be surprised by how funny regional humor can be. For instance, when I typed in “Alaskan Idioms”, I got…You know you’re in Alaska when your snowblower gets stuck on the roof.You know you’re in Alaska when you know that bear insurance is being with someone that you know you can outrun.You know you’re in Alaska when you have more miles on your snowblower than you do your car.Just for fun, let’s try Midwest Idioms.That makes as much sense as government cheese.Slow as molasses in January.He’s got a hollow tail. (Is angry.)The point is that these are a fun way to add just a spark of humor to your presentation.A Great Presentation has a Fractal StructureAs I mentioned in the introduction above, I came across the term Fractal Mathematics from a Netflix documentary. (Which documentary doesn’t really matter.) The more that the host explained about this division of math, though, the more sense the three-point talk makes. Without going into all of the boring explanations Fractals are infinitely complex patterns that are self-similar across different scales. An example of a natural fractal is a mountain range. When you look at a mountain from a distance, it is very difficult to judge how far away from the mountain you are. In fact, if you take a close up photograph of a bolder, it will be very difficult to judge whether the bolder is one foot tall or thousands of feet tall.Another example of a fractal is a triangle. Try this. Draw a triangle. Then put a dot in the exact middle of each side of the triangle. Now connect the three dots. You will create four new triangles that all look exactly like the first one, but on a smaller scale. You can do the process again and again, and you will always end up with smaller versions of the original shape.Pixar Realized that this Mathematical Theory had Other ApplicationsIn 1980, Loren Carpenter was working for Boeing in their computer graphics department. The executives at Boeing wanted their marketing posters to have realistic mountains in the background, so Carpenter wanted to try to make the mountain ranges using computer graphics. The problem was, tho

Most of us give presentations in some form or fashion, and today I am revealing the strategies and techniques that I feel will allow you to give the best presentation possible. Regardless of where you’re at, you can get to where you want to be by being present, intentional and structured with how you present to others.

Coupled with this three-part podcast series customized for BankBosun audience, will give your great confidence in public speaking. If you listen to this series and buy his book, it will save you from having to appear naked on the stage to gain public speaking confidence…like he did. Listen to part one, if you missed it. Kelly Coughlin is CEO of BankBosun, a management consulting firm, helping bank C-Level officers navigate risk and discover rewards. He is the host of the syndicated audio podcast, BankBosun.com. Kelly brings over 25 years of experience with companies like PWC, Lloyds Bank and Merrill Lynch. On the podcast, Kelly interviews key executives in the banking ecosystem, provide bank C-Suite officers, risk management, technology and investment ideas and solutions to help them navigate risk and discover rewards, and now your host, Kelly Coughlin. Kelly: I’m a big fan of Shakespeare and you mentioned that it’s effective to use the iambic pentameter which is Shakespeare’s preferred rhythm in the speech, I have never tried to write a speech using that let alone deliberate in this format. Are you seriously recommending that we try to write our speeches like Shakespeare? Robin: I’m certainly not, what I’m saying is that if you can find, it can be useful exercise, if you write your main points in iambic pentameter, interestingly enough, it will actually have a natural rhythm that will just flow because iambic pentameter, which is ti-dum ti-dum ti-dum ti-dum, which is the five human heart beats. The reason it’s worked so long is it has a natural rhythm. So, one of the classic Henry the Fifth line is, “Now all the youths of England are on fire.” In the rhythm of Shakespeare, which is ti-dum ti-dum ti-dum, in that rhythm, it sounds like, now all the youths of England are on fire. You can feel this, there is a momentum behind it. It’s not always appropriate, of course. In the book, I use a phrase that you could tell to your sales team, for example, which was in the line I came up with here to explain this was, “just care and they will want to buy from you.” But if you say it in the rhythm of the iambic pentameter, which is tidum ti-dum ti-dum, you have, just care and they will want to buy from us. So, if you are going to end a speech with your main point, if you just try and write it in those five human heartbeat, fondly enough, you will find it will have a natural rhythm and a natural gravitas and a natural authority, and a natural drama, just purely in the way it is constructed. Kelly: So you will give us a pass, we can use iambic pentameter at the beginning and the end but in-between we can get by without it. Robin: None of us are as good as Shakespeare, and to be honest, it wouldn’t land. Kelly: Okay. I love the quote, “A speech is like a love affair. Any fool can start it but to end it requires considerable skill” Robin: [Laughs] that’s great, a great quote isn’t it. If you can see a theatre play, you love the whole play, it’s been like two hours long or something, the curtain comes down at the end and the curtain gets stuck about one foot off the ground. What you see now is the actors behind, you see their feet. And there you can see them, you can see the body language because there is about a foot at the bottom, and you can see they begin, what do we do now? Do we go off or do we stay? And you can see them starting to go one way or the other way. And it leaves a very odd feeling about it and then they can’t do their bows properly so now they have to come through the side of the auditorium and, you know, in front of the curtain and all the rest of it. So, when you go into the office the next day and you saw this theatre play last night, the curtain got stuck. That’s what you are going to remember. You are not going to remember two hours of great before that, you are just going to remember when it all went wrong at the end. And similarly with the speech, you can do a really good speech and just slightly fall apart at the end and it’s just terrible. And the reason I like the headline sandwich is that even if in your mind you think, oh, it’s all slightly going a bit pear shaped. What you do is, you think, okay, I am just going to repeat the opening headline absolutely clearly, so, that’s why Peter is the kindest man I have ever met in my life. No one is going to think, but you missed out a section, because they don’t even know what you plan to say. But at least you finish really really well, and I would say, finish strongly but interestingly enough, on a timeline. Someone, a few years ago, did a wonderful survey on when the peak of great works of art, great speeches, great music, great films, great book even where they reach their emotional peak. And most people would think that you reach your peak at 100 percent on the timeline. Interestingly enough it is about 95 percent on the timeline. So it’s best what we are trying to sell in our product we want the audience to feel they have made the decision to buy it and we then pull back and let them feel they have make their choice. We don’t want to end on the big sell, we want to get to about 90, 95 percent of the timeline and then just pull back a little bit so the audience go, yeah, I think we will buy this, and this is my choice to buy it. And then, salesman, very much calmer, and they are not desperate to sell, because I think if he looks desperate to sell it will end up at 100 percent energy and 100 percent on the timeline. Kelly: Excellent. I told the audience we will cover briefly some things on PowerPoint presentations. I have a business policy now that requires more or less four things in a power point presentation. Number one, few or no words on the slide. Two, only images if possible. Three, total deck less than 12 and then presentation less than 20 minutes, as we had discussed before, and then the script printed at the bottom of the PowerPoint notes. Tell us about your PowerPoint policy generally and what you refer to as your five by five rule. Robin: Yeah, the five by five rule is quite common actually but basically it’s no more than five bullets per slide and then more than five words per bullet. And I think that is the discipline, I think, is really good. I think also, fonts are too small, quite often there are too many sections to a slide. So, you can have graphs, series of words, you can have a chart, So, you can have a pie chart, a bar chart, a photograph. It’s just too much on a slide. If I was going to give one piece of advice on PowerPoint it would be each slide should have an emotion connected to it. And the best example of this is the company I was working with in the north of England and it had a sales team of about 100 guys and they had to go out obviously and give this presentation to all their new potential customers. One of the slides was the history of their company. And then it went from about 1900 right through to 2017. And it had, but each one, each one of the...well almost every single, not every single year but I mean, it felt like...certainly every five years it was something else. It was like, you know, they moved their office to a different town or they opened an account somewhere else or they opened a branch here. And as a customer, of course, I was watching this, a potential customer, and I said look, I am going to stop you now. I said, this slide is going on for about a minute and a half and it’s really boring because it’s all about your company and I, frankly, I want to buy your products, I am not really interested in the company and where you have your offices and where you have your warehouses. It’s not really relevant to me. And he said, oh, we’ll cut the slide out. And I said, no, no, no don’t cut the slide out because there is a point to the slide but you have to know the emotional results that you want every slide to have. So every slide in your deck has to make the audience feel something, so what is this slide making the audience feel? And he said, oh, but we are giving the history of our company. I said, no, that’s boredom. What do you want the audience to feel? And one of them said trust. I said, absolutely, spot on. The only reason you are telling us about the history of your company is so that you trust us, right? So, I said, now you know that, I said do the slide again. And the guy said, so, look, as you can see here, we have been going over 117 years. We know what we are doing. We are really established. Trust us. Click. And he went on to the next slide. So, it took under 10 seconds but it did the job, which is to make us feel we can trust this company. We don’t have to go through everything necessarily, it wasn’t relevant but to see it all there was useful. But the point of the slide was to make us feel trust. So, I think that in every single slide I get my clients to write the emotion at the top of the slide that they want the audience to feel as a result of giving this slide. And if you do that, then the audience will care and if you don’t have the emotion connected to PowerPoint slides, that’s when they become boring and that’s when they become just information. We don’t want information, we want to know why we are been given the information. And if you tell them the emotion connected to each slide then your audiences will care. Kelly: Great stuff! Robin that’s terrific. I really appreciate your time. How should people get in touch with you? Give us your, I presume your website, email address, how would you like to do that?
