Magnetic Public Speaking: The Blueprint for Delivering Powerfully Persuasive Presentations! Jun 26, 2014

by Akash Karia

( 20 )

$2.99

THE SECRET TO MAGNETIC SPEAKING

What’s the “secret” to becoming a magnetic speaker?

What techniques do world-class speakers use to keep their audiences on the edge of their seats?

What tools can you use to give powerful presentations that win people over to your way of thinking?

I’ve spent the last five years of my life answering these questions.

As an introvert, I used to be envious of speakers who were able to keep their audiences electrified.

I used to think that these speakers were naturally gifted communicators; that they had won the genetic lottery when it came to persuasive speaking skills.

However, being a personal development junkie, I began interviewing these great speakers.

I studied hundreds of books on public speaking, watched countless videos of great speakers and invested thousands of dollars on public speaking seminars and coaching programs.

What I learned was that public speaking is a skill, and like any skill it can be developed if you have access to the right techniques.

OVER THIRTY TOOLS TO HELP YOU MASTER THE ART OF PUBLIC SPEAKING

After reading the book and learning to use the tools, you’ll be able to:

• Captivate your audience and arouse their curiosity within the first thirty seconds.

• Break down your audience’s persuasion resistance using a story.

• Use the advanced storytelling formula that will have your audience hanging onto your every word.

• Craft a catch phrase that is remembered and repeated.

• Build internal credibility into your stories.

• Make your talk concrete using metaphors and analogies.

• Transform any story into a mental movie for your audience.

• Use rich, powerful words that invoke emotions in your listeners.

• Create irresistible stories by understanding the keys to great storytelling.
