To be a speaker that generates money from the stage (platform speaking) you will need a commanding voice that varies up and down, deep and soft, fast and slow … If you fail to vary your voice you will lose your audience quick-smart. This is not theory this is a fact. Monotone speakers can’t sustain audiences and no matter the benefit of their product or service to the consumer the audience will not be engaged and sales will suffer. The speaker suffers.rnHow do I use proper voice inflection then?rnThe irony is most speakers who aim to have a professional and business like image, tend to sound the most monotone. They believe to be taken seriously they need to have this professional image and sound monotone … however the key to holding attention with your audience (prospects) is to speak with passion. Passion ignites enthusiasm.rnIf YOU are not PASSIONATE about your product or service don’t sell it .. the audience will see through you and your pitch.rnWhen you speak with children what’s your normal tone? Is it businesslike and professional? or does it vary? with proper intonation and modulation, going up and down, deep and soft? It would be the latter … and this is how you SHOULD be speaking to your audience. Speak with animation and be lively and avoid trying to be too businesslike and monotone … drop that boring image as it wont help you.rnMost important step is to be natural. If you feel really strong about something it comes through naturally, especially in the sales process. When you’re angry you don’t need to fake an angry tone it just comes out naturally, when you’re happy same goes … Be passionate about your topic and be there to truley help the audience and the passion and enthusiasm will shine through naturally. Obama is a good example of great voice inflection and enthusiasm,rnI dont want to get caught up too much on the “technology side” of things but using a voice recorder can help. Record your voice for a 3 minutes as you speak and play back to hear whether you’re speaking with enthusiasm or passion.rnDoes this sound like work? YES Does this sound like a boring task? YES! Will this help me? You bet it WILL!!!rnTo watch 10+ FREE Video Trainings On Being a Better Speaker & Selling From The Stage check out : http://www.SpeakerTrainingVideos.com
