A few weeks ago, I gave you my Presentation Skills Checklist. And over the last couple of weeks, we covered the first two items on that checklist, (1) how to know your audience better, and (2) how to design a catchy title.

On today's episode, I'm going to show you how to quickly and easily design your speech in a whole lot less time that what most people take to create a presentation. If you haven't listened to last week's session on how to create a catchy title, don't worry, I give a quick review at the start of this episode.

Once you go through the session, I put a link in the show notes to out Online Speech Creator. Just click the link and answer a few questions, and the website will create a fantastic speech outline for you.

A couple of weeks ago, I gave you my Presentation Skills Checklist. And last week, we covered step one in that checklist which was know your audience. If you haven't had a chance to listen to that episode yet, the things I covered were essential in creating better presentations and reducing public speaking nervousness.

Most people design presentations by creating a long list of items they could cover. Then, they try to squeeze everything into a short timeframe. It almost never works.

So, last week, we showed you how to determine what your audience wants or needs from your presentation. If you understand that process, designing great presentations is much easier. And those presentations are also easier to deliver -- which reduces that nervousness as well.

On today's episode, I'm going to show you how to get your audience to want to pay attention to every word that you say before you even open your mouth. The absolute most important part of the presentation is the presentation title.

In fact, when you start with a great title, the presentation almost writes itself.

So today, I'm going to take you through our "Presentation Title Generator." The good news is that this process only has two simple steps. But when we show our class members how to do this in our classroom coaching sessions, they are always surprised at how dramatic the differences are in the presentations that they are able to create.

Last week, I gave you my Presentation Skills Checklist. And step one in that checklist was to know your audience.

Listen to any speaking coach, go to any Toastmasters, attend any presentation seminar, you will hear a single phrase over and over. “Know your audience.” Sounds really good too. When we hear the phrase, we think, “Well, of course. That makes sense.” But what exactly does “know your audience mean?” Is there a formula to help a speaker know his or her audience better?

Well, yes, there is. In fact, every presenter should use this formula before creating any speech or any PowerPoint slide. Because the answers that you get from following the formula will greatly change what content you cover in your presentation. The answers will also allow you to change your delivery so that your audience is more likely to agree with you.

So, on today's episode, I'll show how to research your audience and identify exactly what they need to take away from your presentation and why. If you understand this, design great presentations and reducing presentation nervousness is a piece of cake.
