How you can take your presentations to another level.
Welcome to episode 108 of the Marketing and Finance Podcast.
What you’ll hear about in this episode

- Snippet from a recent seminar about “The TV studio in your pocket”.
- Other tips you can use to stand out as a public speaker
Following a family bereavement, I’m a bit behind with my podcast interviews.
Sorry about that.
So today is one of those occasional episodes where it’s just me and the mic, talking about a topic that’s recently caught my attention. I reflect upon what I’ve learned over 20 years of public speaking and share some quick tips you could use to up your game. I also talk about a workshop I attended led by Marcus Sheridan and the game-changing effect he’s had on my presenting.
There’s also a chance for you to attend a similar workshop with Marcus in Edinburgh on 28 November 2016 – but you’ll have to be quick.

Hi Roger – I enjoyed your podcast.
As a trainer I know how difficult it is to maintain the attention of an audience/group of learners. I love your suggestions of telling stories and using pictures. As a trainer I have been asking questions as a matter of act (I was trained to ask questions). One suggestion for future podcasts is to ask more rhetorical questions during your podcast and to reduce the length of it (so I have time to listen to all of it).
Keep up the good work! Cheers, Ian
