How to hook your audience!🪝
Hi Reader! We all know the drill. Media is a magnet for attention. Think about it—headlines like "The 5 Best Foods for XYZ" or "10 Things to Never Do Before Bed" aren’t just catchy; they're crafted to make us look. And yes, we’ve mastered the art of those eye-catching captions. But here’s the real scoop: trends make the news, and I'm quoted in the media enough to spot the next big wave. It’s a single, powerful word: "authenticity." This isn't just a buzzword; it's the future. And we’re here to lead the charge, together. Let’s dive into how being genuine is not just good practice—it's revolutionary. That's why you won't want to miss my podcast with Ellie Krieger (see below) and you'll appreciate the Q+A that follows. I'd love to hear your thoughts on this topic and I hope you'll follow my Media Savvy Podcast!

I sometimes feel like I'm up there talking to myself!" Answer: For me, my opening remarks present as an opportunity to connect with your audience and make them want to hear more about what you have to say. Personal stories help you to become a real person on that stage -- and not just seem like an anonymous presenter. Subtle, self-deprecating humor could bring your audience closer to you by showing a side of you that makes you more tangible, more believable and more humble -- but I say "subtle" for a reason. Be sure not to put yourself down so much so that you unknowingly step on your own credibility. The best way to make your point and turn a few laughs into solid nods is to highlight a humorous story about something you experienced that you then turned around to learn an important lesson for your business. If your goal is to grab attention, gain more followers (which is less important than you may realize), boost your reputation or build your business…the most important word for you to remember is “authenticity.” 🌟 And as members of my BTD Media Makers group already...you have direct access to me!! 🙋🏻♀️ I will personally answers your questions!
