The #1 skill a technical entrepreneur needs to transition from dreaming to reality is the ability to present their ideas clearly and succinctly.
I invite you to join me in a discussion on effective presentation skills.
I read on TheFunded.com a lot of stories that a VC fell asleep during the entrepreneur's presentation. I am here to make sure that does not happen to you.
Let me tell you a quick story.
I had a seminar that I was presenting at Microsoft for their prospects. All of my A/V equipment failed. I was originally scheduled for 2 hours. The audience kept asking me questions 4 hours later. Would you like to be able to keep your audience engaged to such a degree? If so, please join me. :)
- Engage the audience
- Overcome shyness
- Learn the techniques to effectively work the room
- Learn where you can practice your public speaking skills without fear
- Practice and refine your elevator pitch
- Learn how to stop sounding like a technical geek (I am one!)
Please sign up by editing this page. :)
My contact information is on [my personal brand including LinkedIn profile].
I do have recording equipment with me at the conference. I will record your elevator pitch and a sample of your tech presentation.
Thank you for attending my session a copy of it will be posted here when I process it. Nudge me at my e-mail if necessary. ;-)
