End of week 4: Persuasive Presentation





Have you ever persuaded someone to buy something? To get something for you? or to not watch some movie which you consider boring? If you answer yes, which I know all of you will, then congratulations, you have just carried out an act called PERSUASION.. PRESENTING a persuasive presentation :]


You're not a conman if you persuade someone to do something or buy somehting [well most of the time you're not, unless you have a motive to trick that person, then yes, you are a conman, if your aim is simply to promote truth, then you are simply, well erm, PERSUADING :] BEING PERSUASIVE]

What must you do to conduct a good persuasive presentation?


Well, one, you must sell the ART OF BELIEVE to the people you're about to present on. You must allow them to give birth to a sense of believe in you, to trust you and to put full HOPE on your word. Coz if its true, why not make them believe it true? Unless it isn't, then you're just lying to them. So first things first, Make sure your audience develop a sense of trust and believe in you, with that, you are on your way to a great presentation delivery.


People are always insecure about things.. If you tell them this product is good, they'll think theres a catch, that you're up to something, and if you tell them your friend told you this and that and they should believe you, they think you're pressuring them into buying something, SO MAKE sure you're prepared with stats, PROVES that can woo your audience, something in black and white if possible to make them realize that whatever that comes up from your mouth are all pure TRUTH and FACTS.


It's all about giving out the evidence. Assuring them that they are getting firstclass services all the way.. A lil white lie can't hurt, but don't lie to an extent where none of the facts even EXIST! :] Well what I can tell you about conducting a persuasive presentation is that you have to be focus at all time, you have to have CONFIDENCE that you can deliver your message clearly and CONVINCINGLY.. it's not how much you say or talk, it's how much you are willing to get back in return, how many eyes you've caught, and how many people you are able to convince and sway..

This is a harsh world, everyone is competin to be the best, but that doesn't mean you can't have a shot at becoming one of the best and one of the favourites.. Everyone's got a shot, and it's all about perseverance, whoever's willing to run it all the way to finish line and to the top of the chart, it's about charisma, it's about delivery and it's about COURAGE, whether your willing to step up and ignore the obstacles :]


MY STORY:

Everyone's been telling me that I'm a good talker and that I talk too much sometimes.. Maybe I do.. I don't know, but you can't blame me, It's genetics, I grew up from a family that likes to talk and from a family that sweettalks perhaps? Haha.. Ok I think i'm exaggerating here a lil'.. Well it's about the art of making someone believe in you, like how I always convince my friends on the nices place to eat and the best movies to catch, so far, everything's been going my way, everyone's been liking my good judment, and one of the best qualities abt me that people have stated would be [before that, I'M NOT boasting or anything, seeing you want real life experiences, there u go, this is mine] I have a good taste in music.. From the latest to OLD-SKEWL-Flavour, I have them all.. I tell people what song suits what themes, what song selectiong suits a video scene, and etc.. So if you want advice, come see ;]


Last but not least, The ART of Conducting a Persuasive Presentation would be to NEVER FORCE.. Convince as much as you want, but NEVER, I repeat, NEVER FORCE.. Forcing is never a gentleman or a noble act, The art of persuasion is all about skills and charisma, it's when you've obtain good results through it that you'll truly feel and be in content.. It's when you force, you are going against certain principles in life that's been set forth not just by our four fathers, but by the elements of the earth.. Trust me, Karma exist.. What goes around, Comes around, what you do to other, you do onto yourself... So go out and spread the Good News, go and persuade for as much as you want, BUT, however, whatever the consequences is, either people choose to accept or reject whatever you have to say, You just have to deal with it.. We don't always get what we want anyway, That's Life.. Thing's happen... ;]

  1. You can really TALK...I have seen that. The quick wit and composure helps as well...just that on many occasions, I don't get you.
