PUBLIC SPEAKING 🎤
Tips to Beat Stage Fright

How many of you here don't like to speak in public and you suffer from stage fright? Yeah, it's a lot of people. It's the most common problem with public speaking. And if you can't get rid of stage fright, you can't speak in public.

Stage fright is where your heart is pounding like a big kpanlogo drum, you are sweating even though the room is cold, you are shaking, you want to run away. It happens to a lot of people. People have been known to pee on themselves just at the thought, just the thought of not even speaking, just the thought. So you have to get rid of stage fright. You have to be comfortable on the stage. If you can spell the word stage, you can actually learn how to deal with stage fright because every letter stands for something.

S, shift your focus. It's not about you. It's about the audience. If you think it's about me, me, me, me, me, you forget that the audience has to get something. So think about the audience.

T is for train your brain. Look for the positive. People always think, hey, what if I fall? What if I die? But what if you don't fall? What if at the end of your presentation, they give you a round of applause? What if at the end of your presentation, everybody's smiling and happy? So shift your focus so that you think of the positives.

A is for achieve calm. Before you get on the stage, you must be calm. So you can do your deep breathing exercises. Everybody breathe in deeply. And out. Slowly. You will realize that your pulse, your heartbeat, everything will slow down. You can meditate, you can pray, you can do vocal exercises. Peter-Piper-picked-a-peck-of-pickled-pepper. And you pronounce all the words so that you're smiling, you're calm. When you're smiling, you're calm. When you are happy and you're in a good mood, it's very unlikely that you have stage fright.

G is for get prepared. Get prepared. Before you get on the stage, get prepared. So rehearse often, rehearse early, rehearse with an audience. So that means two or three people will sit and listen to your speech. Record your rehearsal so you can watch for feedback, as he said.

Express is for express yourself. So sometimes you can come on the stage and then when you stand there, you just stand. Get people's attention. Or you can start with a story or ask a question. Who wants to be rich this afternoon? People may not verbalize their answer but they'll answer. Because it's, human beings find questions irresistible. So you can start with a question or silence or a funny story and then basically if you make mistakes during your presentation, don't stop. Because nobody knows what the order of your presentation is anyway. Okay, it's like the news readers, they make mistakes and all of a sudden your ears are cocked up. What did she say? When she said I'll take it again, it means she's made a mistake. But the experienced news readers make mistakes every day, but they don't alert you to their mistakes.

So, simple five things:

1. Shift your focus
2. Train your brain to look for the positive,
3. Achieve calm before you get on the stage
4. Get prepared by rehearsing the right way. Don't use a mirror. It doesn't work. Record it with an audience, and then you
5. Express yourself.

And with these, you get rid of the stage fright, and you become a better public speaker.

Whether you are an aspiring TV presenter or looking to enhance your existing skills, this course is designed to provide you with the essential tools to become a confident and engaging presence on screen.

Step 1
Understanding the Role of a TV Presenter

Definition
TV presenters play a crucial role in delivering information, entertaining, and connecting with the audience through the medium of television. They are the face of a show and are responsible for engaging viewers and conveying content effectively.

Exercise
Consider renowned TV presenters like Komla Dumor, Gifty Anti, Larry King and Oprah Winfrey, whose ability to connect with audiences made them iconic figures in the industry. Analyze their style, approach, and their impact on viewers.

Step 2
On-Camera Techniques

Camera Awareness
Understanding the camera is fundamental. Practice being aware of the lens, positioning yourself correctly, and maintaining eye contact to establish a connection with the audience.

Exercise
Watch clips of experienced presenters and observe how they maintain eye contact with the camera. Note their body language, facial expressions, and how they use the space around them.

Step 3
Posture and Body Language

Maintaining a Confident Posture
Good posture exudes confidence and professionalism on screen. Learn to stand or sit with poise, maintaining a straight back and relaxed shoulders.

Exercise
Analyze the posture of news anchors or talk show hosts. Notice how they exude confidence through their stance and body language. Practice mirroring this posture in front of a mirror.

Step 4
Voice Modulation

Understanding Voice Dynamics
Explore the power of your voice. Learn to modulate pitch, tone, and speed to convey emotions, maintain engagement, and emphasize key points.

Exercise
Listen to radio hosts or skilled narrators and note how they modulate their voices to create impact. Experiment with your own voice, practicing modulation to convey different emotions.

Step 5
Practical Exercises

Apply the theoretical knowledge through hands-on exercises. Record short practice sessions, review the footage, and identify areas for improvement.

Exercise
Record a brief introduction about yourself, practicing camera awareness, posture, and voice modulation. Compare it with the examples you've studied and make adjustments accordingly.

Step 6
Feedback and Reflection

Seek feedback from peers or mentors. Reflect on your performance, identify strengths, and set goals for improvement.

Exercise
Engage in peer review sessions or seek feedback from experienced presenters. Constructive criticism is a valuable tool for refining your skills.

How to Market Yourself to Get More Corporate MC Gigs – Part 1

Seth Godin, entrepreneur and author, describes marketing as 'influencing the actions of others'. In marketing your corporate MC services, this is exactly what you want to do. Your aim is to influence or persuade others (event planners, clients) to take action (by choosing you to host their events). Here are 3 tips.

1. Work for Free
I can hear you grumbling “But that defeats the purpose of getting corporate gigs – to get paid more than what you get for weddings and parties!”

My very first MC gig many years ago was a free corporate event. Out of the blue, my boss announced “We have a customer cocktail tonight and you are the MC!” Just like that. The bad news was I had no choice in deciding whether to accept or not. And there was no way I could have asked for a fee! The good news was that I survived after having been thrown into the deep end of event hosting. I fumbled and bumbled my way through the cocktail but was pronounced Company MC after the event ended.

This free event led to me hosting even more corporate events to build a reputation in that field. Fast forward a decade and a half later, I would resign from my office job to become a full-time Corporate MC. See what one free gig can lead to?

What to Remember

The purpose of the free gigs is to market your name as a corporate MC. If you are a wedding MC who wants more corporate work, this is also a great strategy. Aim to host 10 free events. By the time the eleventh gig comes around you’ll have a track record of 10 corporate events you can be proud of having successfully hosted. Only after that do you start charging a fee.

Make sure you give your client an invoice for every free event you host. State what the fee is and give the client a 100%. That way, customers will know what you are worth and appreciate the value you bring.

2.Inform Your Network

After I resigned my office job to do corporate events full-time, I sent an email to my entire email contact list of 500 friends and business associates. I have reproduced the contents below:

Dear...

I hope you're well. This is a short note to inform you that I left ................... on 31st January to embark on a new career in communication.

This means I am available to MC a wide range of corporate and private events. These include product launches, awards nights, conferences and fundraisers as well as wedding receptions and parties.

My new contacts are as follows:

[phone]
[email protected] https://t.co/fWNciE7YVM

I'd be happy to get a recommendation from you whenever you believe my services may be required.

Thank you.

Best regards,
Kafui

Was this mass marketing campaign effective? No. Why? Most of the recipients of the message had not seen me host any event whatsoever. They had no way of assessing if I would be good enough to be hired or recommended. I failed at influencing them to take action.

Does that mean spreading the message by email or text is useless? No. What you should do is focus the message to people who are familiar with your competence as a corporate MC. They will be easier to influence because they know you already.

I remember one of the very first events I hosted. It was organized by an aunt. She too had received my mass email but more importantly, she knew I could emcee because I had hosted her fundraiser some years earlier. True, she did not pay me a fee but I was able to pick up new business from one of the guests and exchange contacts with potential clients.

A good time to send an email or text message is after you have made initial face to face contact. A short message is all you need. An example is below:

Dear........

It was my pleasure to meet you at the conference hall yesterday. I hope you have a nice day.

Best regards,
Kafui

How to MC a Commissioning Ceremony (16 Steps)

1. Check and respond to your missed calls, emails, SMS and WhatsApp messages. An event planner or client may be trying to reach you to book you. In the events industry, the one who is available generally gets the gig.

2. Schedule a pre-event meeting with the planner. The purpose of this meeting is to find out who the client and your event liaison person are, what the planner wants to achieve, where and when the event will take place and conclude on how much you will be paid for your services. (Ask the planner to make a deposit of at least 50% of your fee). Don’t forget the dress code. Turning up in the corporate color of the client’s organization will earn you bonus points and goodwill.

3. Arrive at the venue in good time. That’s the professional thing to do. I once had to travel 170km from Accra to Keta for a commissioning ceremony scheduled to begin at 10:00am. I decided to spend the previous night in Anloga and head out to Keta on the morning of the event, a short 20 minute drive. The alternative would have been to make a four hour trip on the day of the event, risking traffic holdups and other inconveniences.

4. Let the planner know as soon as you arrive at the venue. Why? Because that’s one less headache he doesn’t have to deal with. In the run-up to my last commissioning ceremony, the planner called me the night before and the morning of the event to find out when I would be at the venue. When I arrived 3 hours ahead of the start time, he was busy supervising the event setup and visibly relieved that I had arrived.

5. Ask for a tour of the facility that is going to be commissioned. This will make you familiar with the layout and purpose of the building, giving you insights you can use in your remarks during the event.

6. Identify the vendors supporting you at the event. These could be the musicians, dancers or performers providing entertainment, the deejay and the audiovisual team (photographers and videographers). Introduce yourself to them (“Hello, I’m Kafui Dey, MC for the event and you are…?”). Exchange contacts with them to expand your personal database of event vendors and also to make yourself a resource for people who may need their services in future.

7. Ask for a hard copy of the program. These days, there is a trend towards going paperless and so documents are shared on electronic devices like phones, laptops and palmtops. However, your device can freeze mid-event, internet can be sketchy and your device battery can die when you least expect it. If a printout is unavailable, write the program out in your notebook.

8. Put names to every activity on the program. A professional MC will ensure that every activity is linked to a name and designation of the responsible person. Don’t be the MC who announces “We’ll now take a performance from the cultural troupe” just because on the program it was indicated “performance by cultural troupe”. It’s your responsibility as a professional to get all these details.
