A Few Words

About This Book

I spent several years of my

life learning the things that I

teach in this book, and I have

personally tested and

implemented all of the

techniques in my own

presentations hundreds of

times.

This book is designed to give the feel of a live presentation, because I strongly believe in modeling.

Its not enough to just tell you what to do, so no matter what I teach, I always model EVERYTHING

that I suggest you do. This entire book is the written

likeness of a presentation that I have given countless

times.

To get the most out of this book, be sure to

mark the areas that provide the techniques that you

need to improve the most during your presentations.

You can practice them and then implement them as

you learn them and master them.

Many presenters read this book and assume

they already do all of these techniques because they

say theyve seen it all before.

Make sure you dont fall victim to that way of thinking.


4

You can only master them by DOING them

yourself. Continue to read and practice these

methods until you feel comfortable enough to

perform them flawlessly. Once you think you have

them mastered, make a video recording of yourself

delivering your presentation. You may be surprised

how much you can learn by watching yourself and

then applying what youve learned.

One more thing be sure to go to the very end of this ebook, where I present a special offer for you

to take your presentation and communication skills

to the highest level. Youll have customers beating down your door to work with you based on the

strategies I share with you in our flagship program. I

encourage you to check it out now!

Lets get started!

PART 1: HOW TO

THINK ABOUT

EFFECTIVE

PRESENTING

Chapter 1: What Makes A Great Presentation

Im going to teach you how to give a

presentation that will always have your audience

saying thank you as they leave. To start with, Id like to ask you a question. What do you want to

learn as a result of reading this? Take out a piece of

paper and write down all of the things you want to

learn from this Presto E-book Guide. Before you start, heres the catch. Picture yourself in the following scenario: Imagine youve just given a presentation masterpiece, and you overhear a group

of people talking who just heard it. One of them

says to the others That was absolutely amazing! That presentation just blew me away! Why was it


8

so amazing? Take a couple of minutes to write down

everything you can think of about why they would

feel it was so amazing. Go.

Now ask a few people you know. Ask them to

come up with some additional things they can think

of that make a presentation good, and make sure

everyone agrees on them. If youre like most people, you may be asking yourself why I am having

you do this. Im modeling something for you. I promise you. There is a reason for it. Ok, go ahead.

So, what do you think? What makes a great

presentation? Whenever I teach this as a live

presentation, I always ask that question. In a

moment, I will give you the answers I received from

the audience at one of my recent presentations, and

I will make reference to that presentation throughout

this book, but first I need to let you in on the secret

to getting a good response from your audience.

When you ask a focus question like this, you should

break the room up into smaller discussion groups of

2 to 4 people, and assign one person in each group

to be what I call the re-layer. The re-layer is the person who will tell the rest of the room the answers

from the group. You should assign the other

members of the group to be one or more of the

following:

1. Writer documents the important points of the discussion for the re-layer


9

2. Timekeeper keeps the discussion from exceeding the allotted time

3. Facilitator keeps all group members involved in the discussion

Now lets get back to your answers about what

makes a great presentation. These answers are

powerful because everything that you (and the

people I asked in my presentation) came up with is

what your peers think makes a great presentation.

Get ready, because Im going to break them down, and show you how to make them all happen.

What I will do as you read this, is to teach you

how to do the very things you came up with, and I

will do it in what would last about 54 minutes as a

live presentation.


10

Chapter 2: Presentation

Essentials

I have been asking my audiences what makes a

great presentation repeatedly for years, and I have

found that the answers are always the same. The

following is a list of some of the things my audience

came up with, but the beauty here is that your

audience will want the same things:

1. Uses multiple methods to deliver content so it

meets every learning style

2. Meets the audiences needs and shows them that you care (I call this rapport)

3. Keeps them engaged

4. Gets them to understand

5. Makes sure people follow along

6. Proves that youre trustworthy (I call this credibility)

7. Tells the audience why they need to know about

the content

To simplify things, this list can be reduced to just

five items that will cover every aspect of what my

audience came up with. Whether it is to convey

information, train adults, or teach students in a

classroom, you will need to do the following 5 things

to give the ultimate presentation:

1. Show credibility

2. Build rapport


11

3. Engage the listeners

4. Present (or teach) to all learning styles

5. Effectively answer questions.

In a nutshell, thats it. So lets look again at my presentation, and I will teach you how to do all of

these things!

Many presenters ask a focus question like mine

and then they find themselves staring at a silent

room, but when I asked my audience what makes a

great presentation, the answers came quickly and

easily. Why do you suppose that happened? As I

said earlier, I had broken the room down into groups

and assigned a re-layer to each group. That is the

key to an interactive presentation, because the

number one fear of adults in large groups is looking

foolish in front of their peers. What have I done by

assigning a re-layer? I have removed all of the

individual responsibility for whatever they say! The

re-layers are thinking, Theyre not my thoughts, this is just what the group came up with and thats exactly what the audience wants. They want to feel

safe to speak in front of their peers.


12

Part 2: How To

Deliver An

Amazing

Presentation

Chapter 1: The Nuts And Bolts Of

A Presentation

Now its time to get into the agenda of your presentation. There are three things you need to

do:

1. Tell your audience WHAT you will present

2. Tell them HOW you will do it

3. Tell them WHY they NEED it

You will get only five to fifteen minutes to do this

before people will want to leave. Most people will

leave within that time period if they havent been


13

told exactly WHY they need to know what you are

telling them. I call this hooking the audience. The secret to hooking them is to meet my two

fundamental principles of adult learning:

1. They need to know WHY they should learn

your information

2. They need to know that it is of immediate

value to them

So, in order to practice what I preach, let me tell

you the what Im using in this presentation. Here it is: Im going to tell you everything you need to know before, during, and after a presentation to

make sure the audience walks away from it saying

Wow, that was an amazing presentation! Thank you!

And here is the how. I will model it for you. Whenever I give a presentation I model everything I

suggest you do, including the visual aids, what to

say, how to say it, and the body language to use.

How about the why? The why is the easiest to answer. You got this book because you wanted to

learn how to give the ultimate presentation to any

audience.


14

Chapter 2: Preparation And

Opening Well

Preparation

The only reason why someone would want to

leave your presentation before you are finished is

because you didnt deliver what you said you would within the first five to fifteen minutes. Thats called the main hook. Its the one you use to convince your audience that they want to stay for the rest of

your presentation. You can also use secondary hooks

in order to capture them all the rest of the way. I

will give you the specifics on how to create your

hook right after we talk a little bit about preparation.

To get prepared for your presentation you will

definitely need to have notes. Your notes can be on

PowerPoint slides or on notecards you can keep at

your hip. Everything you will talk about should be

on them. This information could be memorized, but

I recommend just having notes and keeping them

big so you can read them easily. It doesnt matter what method you use for your notes as long as

during your presentation you keep your hands at

your sides, which is the most confident and

seemingly comfortable stance you can have as a

presenter.


15

After your notes are ready, you need to practice.

My suggestion is to practice your presentation three

times in real time with what I call Ninety-Ten. Ninety-Ten is the term I use to describe one of the best rules of presenting. It says that 90% of your

brains focus during a presentation should be on the audience, and only 10% focused on the content.

That means you know your content lights out. You

know it so well you only need 10% of your

concentration focused on it. How do you get there?

You present it three times in real time to your dog (I find them to be easily captivated).

You may be saying to yourself, This presentation would only last about an hour. I have

to give an eight hour presentation and I dont have twenty-four hours to get ready. In that case I suggest you practice the introduction and the first

hour. Get that first hour down because thats when your build initial credibility and rapport. That first

hour is crucial. Thats when your audience makes their first impression of you, and they will judge you

based on that. It is much easier to recover from a

mistake you make late in your presentation or a

mistake made on day two than it is in that first hour.

So Ill say it again. You need to practice three times in real time. Thats how you know youre prepared. Im not talking about just reading your notes in real time. Im saying you need to actually get up in the front of a room, position yourself in the


16

sweet spot (the front and center position in the

room), and talk to your dog for an hour.

Opening Well

When you open, you need to start with your

hook. To create the hook you want to use, you must

first determine what types of tasks your audience

members perform on a daily basis. You can then use

those tasks to tell them why its important and helpful for them to know your content. Tell them

why its cool and why youre glad to be there. Remember, adults learn best when they know why.

You may have heard of the classic rules of

presenting:

1. Tell them what youre going to tell them. 2. Tell them.

3. Tell them what you told them

These are what I like to call elusive obvious or elegantly simples. These things are elusive because they are so obvious to us that we dont stop to analyze them. But if you think about it, you can

use them in any presentation. Telling them what

youre going to tell them is the hook. Then, you tell them, so you teach them for a while, and when

youre all done, you tell them what you told them. This builds your credibility.


17

My audiences usually describe credibility as

being trustworthy and knowing what youre talking about. But, if you want to show credibility, its not that you know what youre talking about, its that they THINK you do. You can get them to think

youre an expert while youre following those classic rules, by pointing out to your audience that they are

remembering. When you do this you can actually

tell them, Hey, youre understanding this.

Lets review for a moment. There are three things you have to do when you display your agenda

for the first time to hook your audience. Tell them

WHAT you will present, tell them HOW you will do it,

and tell them WHY they need to know. You can do

this in a few sentences in about one minute. Do you

remember my hook? Here it is again. Im going to tell you everything you need to know before, during,

and after a presentation to make sure the audience

walks away from the presentation saying, Wow, that was an amazing presentation! Thank you! Thats it. Done. You dont need some elaborate twenty-minute hook. One minute is fine.


18

Chapter 3: Using Language

I need to take a moment to define something.

From now on when I talk about terminology it will be

referred to as a convention. I tell you this because

there are three types of objectives that you will need

to give to people when you present. This is always

true. They are:

1. Conventions (tell what)

2. Concepts (tell why)

3. Algorithms (tell how)

Conventions are definitions, and you will need to

teach some definitions. You may be tempted to just

allude to some definitions rather than teach them

because you assume that your audiences already

knows these. Be careful with that because I can

assure you that not everyone will know them. When

you do a presentation, I suggest you always define

the terms you will use. You should know there are

three kinds of terms you need to define because you

cant assume your audience defines them the way you do. They are:

1. Industry terms (terms related to the industry

you work in that your audience may not be

familiar with)

2. Technical terms (terms your audience may

not be familiar with because they havent kept up with current technologies)


19

3. Company terms (terms that have been

redefined by, or are only familiar to the

employees of your company)

Here is a quick credibility tip. If you have people

in the audience who know the definition of one of

your terms, you know who they are, and you know

what role they have, you can call them out. You can

say, Hey, Mrs. Jones, what is a convention? She can say, Conventions are definitions, and she gets a chance to shine in front of her peers. That

situation builds credibility for her and then builds

credibility for you. When she gets to say the answer

in front of everybody, and your audience saw you

ask her to do that, they know that you know what

youre talking about. You also get a rapport boost because you are showing you care. You wouldnt do that for someone if you didnt want to meet his or her needs.

Dont Sadden and Dont Offend

There are two things you have to avoid throughout

every aspect of your presentation. Dont sadden, and dont offend. Now, of course, whenever we ask things of people we should avoid saying negatives,

and if you are familiar with dealing with children you

already know this. If you are trying to prevent a

toddler from doing something, and you tell him or

her not to do it, it will inevitably be the first thing

they do. So, I will replace dont sadden and dont


20

offend with be very conservative. Its amazing how many times I have seen someone tell a joke or

even a story during a presentation that they thought

would be just fine, but it either saddened or offended

someone in the audience.


21

Chapter 4: Involve Your Audience

And Make It Fun

Humor

If you really want to wow your audience then youve got to make sure your presentations are enjoyable, so I will spend the next few sections

talking about how to make that happen. When

people think about enjoying themselves, the first

thing that comes to mind for many of them is humor.

Humor is a difficult thing to present, so here are

some things to keep in mind. I recently went to a

presentation that talked about the idea that there

are four different generation types, and that the

differences in humor between those generations is

astounding. There are the traditionalists, the baby

boomers, the generation Xs, and the millennials. Remember that if you are presenting to an audience

with mostly members of the baby boomer generation

you wont be able to use humor that the millennials (their kids) think is funny.

Maybe the most powerful thing I have learned

about humor is that people dont laugh just because they think things are funny. They laugh because

they feel good. This should change your entire way

of thinking about what to do with humor in your

presentations.


22

I used to think I needed to have the best jokes

in my presentations, and be so dynamic that the

audience would be entertained. Now I know it

doesnt matter unless my audience is feeling good. I can simply say that if things arent going well, and you try to incorporate humor, it is almost sure to

bomb. You need to wait for a feel good time for humor. When is a feel good time? A feel good time

is when the audience is engaged, following along,

and understanding. In other words, things are going

well, and the audience is learning. This is when you

can hit them with a joke because its so natural for them to laugh when theyre feeling good.

Story Telling

In addition to humor, I also highly recommend

that you tell stories. Presentations dont always have to be funny, but you do want to make sure

your audience enjoys themselves. You can do that

by telling stories, and your stories dont even have to relate to the content in your presentation. You can

get your audience to enjoy themselves by telling any

fascinating story.

This concept is very important for building

rapport. Many people think building rapport is

simply about being humorous, but dont forget it is also about showing you care, meeting the audiences needs, and making the presentation enjoyable. For


23

many presenters it can be very calming to know they

dont have to be funny to build rapport. Im one of those people because I could never be a comedian,

but I CAN make class enjoyable.

So, what do you think you should do to make

your presentations enjoyable? My advice is to do

what you find most natural or comfortable. If you

tell stories well, do that. If you like to tell jokes, do

that. If you like to incorporate trivia, do that. Find

your style and work it to make your presentation

enjoyable.

Answering Questions

Its time to talk about effectively answering questions. You can only do this when your audience

asks you a question to begin with. So, one thing I

am notorious for when I present and teach is asking

the audience What questions do you have? Alternatively, I could ask, Do you have any questions? But, what is the assumption if I do this? It assumes that no is a possibility. Lets say I am presenting to a group of physicians and I ask, Do you have any questions? When one of them raises their hand they are basically admitting to the entire

room that they dont understand. A group of professionals (particularly physicians) will almost

never want to admit they dont understand something, especially in front of their peers.


24

However if I ask, What questions do you have? the assumption is that there will be questions.

Whenever you do this, you will need to wait for

responses before moving on. How long should you

wait? I have found that seven seconds is the best

rule of thumb, and I can tell you right now you will

need to practice this. Its going to feel uncomfortable for you to pause for that long, but

dont worry. Your audience wont feel uncomfortable. Why? Their minds are busy thinking

about what they want to ask, and they need that

time to process and form their questions.

Additionally, waiting too long for a question can

appear uncomfortable, so use seven seconds as your

guideline.

Heres another trick. Its a credibility trick that makes you look like you always have the answers.

You can actually steer your audience to ask

questions about topics you are ready to talk about.

As you know, I always suggest that you say, What questions do you have? But it is even better to add a task to your question. Instead you could ask,

What questions do you have about being careful with language? When you do this you will avoid being asked questions that dont pertain to your subject matter. Its difficult to answer questions about things you havent researched, and its a waste of their time for the audience to listen to

answers to off topic questions. You can also re-word

these types of questions to mix it up once in a while.


25

Examples are: What things did I not clearly explain? and What things did you not follow along with? etc.

I used to tell people that you ask your audience

questions to keep them active and engaged. Thats true, but questions can really accomplish three

things for you.

1. Engage the audience

2. Get the audience to follow along

3. Get people to understand

Here are some examples:

If I want to get you to follow along with

something I have written on the board, I might ask,

Hey, what do you notice about the top left corner of that board over there?

If I want to make sure that you understand and

are following along I could ask, What are some ways we can ask questions during a presentation?

Make sure you have a good reason whenever

you ask a question. Asking questions is an effective

tool that can accomplish a number of important

things, but asking too often or making them too easy

can be patronizing.


26

Chapter 5: Building Variety Into

Your Presentation

There are several ways you can build variety

into your presentations. Here is a list of powerful

ways to do it.

1. A lecture. (This is similar to what Im doing in this book.)

2. A circle of knowledge. (Similar to the

beginning of this book, a circle of knowledge

is when you give your audience a focus

question and then you ask them to

brainstorm for a while.)

3. Visual aids. These include PowerPoint

slides, and possibly a workbook

4. A demo.

I will cover numbers 3 and number 4 since I

have already covered the first two.

Visual Aids

Lets talk about using visual aid media for

presentation. When you are giving a presentation,

you will nearly always use PowerPoint slides. When I

do this as a live presentation, I use an example

where I read every bullet on a particular PowerPoint

slide aloud to my audience. It is always the first

(and only) time that I read a slide aloud. Its a


27

chance for me to set a bad example for the

audience. Why is it bad? Its bad because what is written on the slides is for the audience, not for me.

They are all adults. They can read. When you are

presenting, whats coming out of your mouth should be what you want to talk about, not what is written

on your slides.

Always remember that the presentation is for

them, not for you. What goes on that PowerPoint is

for them, not for you. Your stuff is whats written on your notecards and whats on the notes about the slides. The purpose of the slide is just to help you

keep track.

Here are some guidelines to follow for PowerPoint

slides:

1. The background should be sparse. (If the

background of your slide has a picture of a

tropical beach your audience wont want to listen to you, they will want to go there.)

2. Only use slides that pertain to your topic

3. Use a big font that everyone will be able to

read

4. Dont read the slide aloud. 5. Dont pack too much on to the slide. The slide

should have brief notes to remind you what

you want to say


28

Demos

When it comes to demos it is important to

distinguish between doing a demo and training. A

demo can give someone the big picture of a product,

but training is getting that person to actually be able

to do something. That is called a learning objective,

and only training has learning objectives. I call

demos the wow objective or the cool objective. Demos usually get people to say, wow thats cool. but they havent necessarily learned it yet. This has implications for your presentation. Its fine if youre going to do a demo in your presentation, in fact I

highly recommend it, but know what it is. Its not learning, and its ok that its not learning. It has its place.

Context is the key when doing a demo. Context

isnt just why youre doing something. Its giving your audience a scenario. Remember, in order not

to offend or sadden you will need to pick a scenario

thats appropriate.

Here is a four-step method for doing demos:

1. Give a quick run through up front

2. Show how easy it is to do the quick run through

3. Show the power of the product by diving into

the details

4. Summarize the demo (tell them what you told

them)


29

Chapter 6: Body Language And

Tone During Your Presentation

Body language and tone are some of the most

powerful tools of a presenter, and I spend a great

deal of time teaching them. Its difficult to convey the power of body language and tone in a book.

However, you should keep in mind that only 7% of

your communication to your audience is what you

say. Of whats left, 55% is your body language and facial expressions, and 38% is tone.

Did you know that the only universal form of

language in the world is facial expressions? If you

show a picture of someone who is surprised to any

culture or person in the world, they will all agree that

the person is surprised. But, if you are doing

something as simple as nodding or shaking your

head, that could be interpreted differently by

different cultures.

This can be very useful to us as presenters.

Many presenters will wave their hands vigorously, or

they will pace continuously during their presentation.

These things can be very distracting, and your

audience can actually become used to them to the

point where they ignore them. When that happens

you wont have the chance to actually harness them.

So what do you do? You need to stand mostly

still with your hands at your sides. This is said to be


30

the most calm, comfortable, and confident stance

you can have. Presenting in that stance can be very

difficult to get used to. But, even though it may not

be comfortable for you, it IS comfortable for your

audience. Overuse of your hands will prevent your

audience from noticing them when you really want

them to.

The same can be said for tone. If you talk at

the same volume much of the time, your audience

will really take notice when you talk a little more

softly from time to time. In fact, when you

substantially reduce your voice volume your

audience will find it more important. It comes across

as though youre telling a secret.

Body Language

Here are my key recommendations for body

language:

1. Keep your feet still and pointed out towards

the whole audience. (Do this even when

answering a question for an individual. If you

turn your feet towards the person asking the

question it implies that the answer is only for

them)

2. Keep your hands at your sides

3. When you smile, always do it sincerely to

project enthusiasm

4. Make eye contact.


31

a. 70% of the time is optimal with an

individual

b. In a room of 5 to 30 people, have your eyes

(not your feet) roam around the room.

Look at everyone about every 5 to 10

minutes

c. If you are presenting to large group of

hundreds or thousands of people, just move

from section to section

Tone

To achieve credibility, here is what I recommend

for tone:

Men should talk in a deep and resonating tone.

Your tone should come from the diaphragm. This

will project confidence, knowledge, and credibility.

(James Earl Jones has figured this out.)

Women have two choices. You can use a thick

even tone with good articulation and

straightforward delivery. This is what is

recommended in the sales industry, and it can be

very useful when dealing with a crowd of

executives. Alternatively, you can use the upbeat,

happy, and figuratively hear a smile approach. If you are upbeat, happy, and you can figuratively

hear that smile, it conveys energy, excitement,

and affability. As a woman, you know which one

of these approaches is more natural for you. I


32

recommend that you work on the other one,

because when you are presenting at three oclock in the afternoon, and people are naturally ready to

fall asleep, it will be difficult to keep your

audiences attention if you use the straightforward delivery.


33

Chapter 7: How To Close Well

When you close you will need to make sure you

finish by the time you promised. So, I recommend

you look at the clock relatively often to ensure your

presentation reaches the closing within your time

limit.

When you get towards the end and its time to close, which is about 5 minutes before finishing, it is

easy to leave a bad impression by rushing your way

through the closing. In fact, I have actually heard a

presenter once who said, Were running out of time so Ill have to rush through the rest. I heard another say, Ill have to not cover this piece. Some of your audience has literally been waiting the

entire time just to hear the closing, and even if your

presentation was solid and enjoyable, if you fail to

deliver at the closing, you wont give them the wow and they will leave with a bad impression.

Answering Questions During Closing

Here are the things I recommend for handling

questions during your closing:

1. Leave time for questions. How much time

should you leave for questions during your

closing? I recommend five minutes for a

sixty-minute presentation and multiples


34

thereof. In other words, ten minutes for a

two-hour presentation, fifteen minutes for

three hours, etc.

2. If you get a question that makes you wonder

whether you will be able get done, you need

to punt it. How do you punt it? Tell them

when and where you will answer the question,

and use a sincere tone to let them know that

you care about that question. For example,

lets say you get a question about body language. You could say: Thanks for that question. Go ahead and write down that

question about body language. I will answer it

at four oclock, and Ill talk about that for anyone else that wants to discuss it too.

Remember that its ok to punt questions. When someone asks you a question during

your closing, it doesnt matter whether it is relevant or not because its not as important as what you wanted to cover. You determined

what was important enough to cover, so make

sure you accomplish that.

3. Tell the audience the cutoff time, but offer to

stay to answer questions afterwards for those

who wish to stay longer.

Finally, dont forget the last classic rule for closing. Tell them what you told them.


35

Nows the Time to Take Action & Grow Your Career

I hope this ebook does what it sets out to do - give

you a head start the next time you have a high
