Two thoughts:
1.
If your audience isn’t engaged, they won’t
retain your message.
2.
We rarely try something new in
front of a customer. And that’s the
problem!
In spite of numerous blog posts, articles and
webinars discussing tips and best practices of driving interactivity over the
web, the sad truth is that most people simply haven’t made any changes to their
practices.
How many web demos and presentations start
with, “Can you see my screen?” – following by nothing but the presenter talking
and clicking?
Ask yourself, what do you do? Are your audiences engaged?
When you ask your audience, “Any questions so
far?” how often do you hear “Nope, we’re good…” or the chirp-chirp of crickets
in an empty room?
If your audience isn’t engaged, they won’t
retain your message. The challenge is
interaction – or, rather, the lack of interactivity. This needs to improve to be effective over
the web!
It will be a while before we can return
to face-to-face meetings – so we are offering targeted coaching services to
help you (rather dramatically) improve the effectiveness of your remote demos
and presentations.
Introducing “Great Connection!” – Remote Demos
and Presentations Coaching Sessions
These 90- to 120-minute sessions for small
groups will have you connecting and driving interaction with your audiences
effectively and confidently.
How?
1.
We’ll introduce and discuss the best
practices and tips
2.
And each participant will put the
ideas into practice in the session.
We’ll practice:
-
The use of annotation tools
-
Whiteboarding over the web
-
Parking questions over the web
-
Enabling audience members to drive or
annotate
-
The Pause button
-
Pre-meeting set-up practices (e.g.,
checking latency and full screen mode)
-
And (gently but firmly) pushing
audiences for feedback and responses
And for those doing webinars or large sessions
(with microphones muted):
-
The use of the chat tools
-
Using Q&A along the way
-
Individual unmuting and muting of
audience members
You’ll be able to put these skills to terrific
use in your very next web demos and presentations – driving interactivity like
you’ve never seen before!
