Course Content

Learning objectives:

At the end of this workshop you will:

1. Have the tools to start and maintain a meaningful conversation with anyone at any event so that you can begin building a relationship as well as qualify them as a business prospect.

2. Be prepared with the right words to say when asked the question “what do you do?” so that your answer speaks directly to the interest of the person asking, capturing their interest in you and your business.

3. Know how to deliver a captivating infomercial to an audience, grab and hold your audience’s attention, making you more persuasive and impactful as a speaker and a leader.

Part one: Conversation skills:

1. Participants learn techniques for conversing with strangers.  The class then pairs off. Each member of the pair takes turn to act as an “interviewer” and practices conversational/interviewing skills for 5 to 7 minutes. Then the roles switch.

2. After everyone has practiced the conversation skills, volunteers come to the front of the class and introduces the other person they just interviewed.  The trainer coaches each speaker.

This allows everyone to experience three significant benefits of the conversational techniques taught:

1. Better gathering of relevant information through effective conversation skills;

2. Better retention of the information using the interest building technique;

3. Better qualification of the prospect by gathering relevant information and assessing their interest.

Part Two: The Sound Bite:

1. The sound bite, or "elevator pitch’ is a 30-second description of what you do.

2. The trainer introduces and reviews a template for an effective sound bite.

3. Each participant uses the template and completes a sound bite for their business or profession.

4. Volunteers present their sound bite to the class; the trainer coaches and the co-participants provide feedback to make the pitch more effective.

5. The trainer gives examples of how to take charge of the conversation and customize your sound bite to the interests of the other person.

6. Each participant leaves with a working elevator pitch that they can then refine or use immediately after this course.
