Frame your presentation.

Ask the audience for help.
         “Can you help me,” she asked the audience.
         They responded with head nods and a very positive “Yes.”
         “Woo,”she felt a sigh-of-relief, the hard part of her presentation was over because what is harder than asking for help?
         What did she need or want; only that they listen, pay attention and allow her to deserve that attention.
         Speaking fearlessly means to have the realization that we all need help, AND we are scared or embarrassed or “too-oh-so-important” to ask for what we want.
         In the sales world, where we all live, you cannot G-E-T until you A-S-K.
         On stage, in a meeting, or just with those significant others in your life, few of us are mind-readers, but we ALL want to help each other.
         Every network group that meets, when the entrepreneurs stand to tell what they do it begins with “I want to help people….”

         So let the elephant out of the room, be honest. You and I need help. It’s why we are here to give and receive help.   
         ASK.
