Before sharing the content of an ABT, any tips on how you get people to listen? 10:36:42 From Matthew David To Everyone: Jamal - to get your audience to listen, you have to listen first! What are your audiences values & concerns? What do they think the problem is? Once you know that, you directly address their values and concerns in the Blue section of your ABT. 10:37:18 From Jamal Yearwood To Everyone: Reacted to "Jamal - to get your ..." with 👍 10:37:26 From Matthew David To Everyone: There's a question that you need to answer in the Blue section "Why is this important?" The more you can answer it from the audience's point of view, the better. 10:45:06 From Park Howell To Everyone: Make your message about THEM by asking yourself the question: “What’s in it for them?” 10:46:10 From Bernhard ("Bear-n-hard") Weigl, pronouns he, him To Everyone: how do you practically "listen to the audience" in preparation for, e.g., a presentation at a conference, or a board presentation? For customers you can do surveys and focus groups and such - how do you do that with a board or scientific audience? 10:46:26 From Jamal Yearwood To Everyone: Reacted to "how do you practical..." with 👍 10:57:29 From Park Howell To Everyone: Bernhard, I try to do as much third-party research as possible meaning I talk to as many people as possible who can provide insights about the audience and I often use LinkedIn to learn more about these people, their backgrounds and hopefully some of their insights. It doesn’t take a lot of research, just a few people to provide the insight you’re looking for. 10:58:15 From Park Howell To Everyone: I was surprised when a large research firm recently told me that they can gain most of the insights they need by simply talking to 12 to 15 people. More people just add redundancy.
