Blair Singer explains how to open a presentation without losing your audience. Skip nervous greetings like "good morning." Instead, ask a question that hooks them, like whether they want to earn more money in the next six months. Stand still, speak clearly, and scan the room.

If you don't want to blow your presentation right out of the gate and you don't want to lose credibility out of the gate, don't do what most people do. When you open is the most important time of any presentation. So rather than saying, good morning, I'm happy to be here, all that nonsense stuff that shows that you're just nervous and you don't know what you're doing up there, do this differently.
Ask a.
Relevant question. Don't say, how many of you like the weather? No. How many of you would like to earn more money.
Or at least learn how to earn more.
Money over the next six months? Okay, that's a relevant question. It shows you know what you're talking.
About and.
You'Re directed and you have their interest. That's the first thing. Second thing is what you're doing with your body. Stand strong. Stand tall.
Don't scream.
At them, don't go too soft, but talk to them in a legitimate, clear voice. Don't be pacing. Don't move your feet. Don't wring your hands. Don't shrug your shoulders. Stand firm.
Deliver and.
Scan the room.
