Tips to Viewing a Video in your speech to help the audience pay attention to a video

Give assignments to groups or individuals as to what, in particular, they should look and listen for, as they watch the video tape.

This gives them something specific to look for so they become active (rather than passive) participants. They tune in with a responsibility. They know what you want from them.

        Goal 1     Pay attention to the voice.

        Goal 2    Pay attention to the opening message of the salesperson.

        Goal 3    Pay attention to the emotion in the voice of the prospect.

You are the questioners. Listen and look for anything that triggers a question in your mind.

You are the Agreers. Listen and look for anything you can accept or “buy.”

You are the Disagreers (non disagreeables). Listen for anything that doesn’t make sense or that you can’t buy or accept.

You are the Implementers or Appliers. Listen for something to practice that you can pick up and run with, starting Monday morning.

You are the Relaters. You will find an incident, event, or situation in your life that relates to a principle being discussed on the tape.

Stop Tape Opportunities

Prediction	What is likely to happen?
