I’ve been making people feel less than safe for the past few weeks. Giving presentations before live audiences, and being big and enthusiastic. I am male and most of the audience is female, and the response has been less than overwhelming.

By contrast, yesterday we had one of our best sign ups. No mistake it was after a testimony by a very small, quiet woman, who testified what the program we’re offering did for her, which was all positive. Of course, or we wouldn’t have had her testify!

BTW, all thru her testimony, I was inwardly shaking my head, no,no,no, no one is going to want to sign up listening to this small, mousy, unenthusiastic testifier. Where’s the enthusiasm, the gusto, the over the top?

Obviously not needed, as your advice points out. I’m sure that stuff has some place at some time during a program or seminar, but your advice is invaluable. I strongly intend to lose the bigness and enthusiasm, present my part of the show without those, and give plenty of room to let others do the all-important work of making our audience feel safe.

p.s. This is the single best on-line course of any kind I’ve ever taken, and I’ve taken more than a few. By far the best, thank you.
