Message Structure

Message Structure

The most important thing is to never lose your audience. By structuring your content, it is easier for your audience to follow you and you also know when to stop talking so that you don't repeat yourself.

Examples on how your content can be structured:

  • Information, emotion, action
  • Comparison, construct, conclusion
  • Problem/opportunity, solution, benefit
  • What, so what, now what

Practice

Practice

Spend the same amount of time practicing as you spend preparing your presentation.

  • Stand up: This helps you focus and makes your voice clearer.
  • Warm up: Speak tongue twisters.
  • Practice in a real environment and a similar situation: Practice in front of your family and friends.

Best app ever! You heard it right. This app has helped me get back on my quest to get things done while equipping myself with knowledge everyday.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!
