Should you memorize my pitch word for word? Or just talk freely with maybe a few notes? While there isn't one way that works the best for everyone, the best thing you can do that *does* work is: Rehearse Your Pitch!

When you drop your eyes and look down, you lose your power. ๐๐คฆ
Eye contact/body language is even more important than words from your mouth. And you can't fake it. It must be connected to the real and true you. #pitch#interveiw#eyecontact#success#lessonlearned#levelup

Observe yourself.This is one of the best pieces of advice I can give anyone. A lot of times, people will talk to me and are very comfortable and animated. And then all of a sudden, when they begin to practice their pitch, they change into "presentation mode." #pitchcoach
My Dad used to ask me: "How do you measure someone's progress with public speaking skills?"
So I told him: work with a coach, record yourself, watch, do it again, apply notes.
This is how actors work in rehearsal.

Something so small makes a huge difference. Have you tried this out?
Keep your feet on the ground, and just shift your body weight to the side. Or shift forward a little. This is a sign you are moving to a different topic or idea.

Things my clients do that make me go... "Oh!"
Creating suspense... with pauses! How does it work?
During your pitch or presentation, you can leave a little space with your voice just before the important information.
#pitches#coach#presentation#story#speaking#publicspeaking
The information we share with our audiences needs to be clear and concise.
But the way you are delivering it, and letting your audience know how you feel about it, is even more important and effective.

How aware are you of your Eye Contact?
When you drop your eyes, you lose your power and your connection.
You can have moments where you look away.
But when you look down, you disconnect. Literally.

The tone of your voice is so effective.
People can hear the things you are excited and frustrated about.
Showing that on your face is so useful and effective.
Express yourself! ๐ป๐คฉ

Do you cut off the ends of your words? This really makes. More difficult for your listener to understand you and it really affects our communication.
Focusing on vocal energy helps your audience understand you better!
