Re: [entrepreneurs] business

I suggest maybe taking a class in public speaking at a local community college. Also something else you can do with or without the class, is practice talking in a mirrior and practice your presentation many times so that you are comfortable with your presentation. When speaking in front of a group, don't use direct eye contact as this can be intimidating until you feel comfortable with public speaking.

Examples you can do is to look directly above a person's head w/o looking the group directly in the eyes; this will appear to have the same affect w/o you feeling intimidated. Two, picture your audience in their underwear is another one; it is difficult to feel intimidated by someone less inferior to you. Finally, role play. Pretend you are someone else making the presentation. If you take yourself out of the equation, you can "pretend" you are someone else performing the presentation and this person loves crowds of people, presenting, and most importantly not afraid of doig so.

Hope this helps.

Subject: [entrepreneurs] business

I sell Home Interiors and I am in a rut. Where I live almost everyone
sells and I understand you need to branch out, but I get really nervous
speaking in front of people. What gets me is that alot of people still
don't know about this business and I love what I do, I just can't work
up the nerve to tell people what I do. Any advice?
