Networking presentations are usually for 60 seconds and there’s nothing worse than not using all of your allocated time. If you fall short and your message lasts no more than 30 seconds, you have also lost out on a great marketing opportunity!
Presentations are a minute long throughout the networking industry for a good reason – the format works. If you take more than a minute, people start to switch off and focus more on when you are going to stop rather than on what you are saying.
A common mistake in presentations is to try to get too much information across to your audience so avoid trying to tell everyone about everything you do. Instead, try to focus on one area of your business during each presentation.
By keeping your message simple and your call to action clear, you have a much greater chance of everyone remembering what it is you said!
Above all, it is vital that you find a style that suits you as attempting to deliver someone else’s presentation would not be as effective as delivering your own – you know your own story.
