"The audience will forgive you anything - except being boring" --John Cantu

You can forget someone’s name. You can forget what you want to say. You can forget a prop. You can leave some material out. You can put material in you didn’t mean to. You can mispronounce words.... You can do all these things and still give a well received talk. But the one thing you can’t do is be boring.

There are one of two ways you can learn how not to bore your audience.

You can give painful speech after pain speech, each time analyzing what you did wrong and try to figure out how to do it right.

OR

You can let John Cantu show you how to make your material connect, your voice reach and your body electrify an audience.

"I started my career in the humor speaking business in a Cantu workshop." --Malcolm Kushner, author The Light Touch: How to Use Humor for Business Success and Public Speaking For Dummies

Legendary comedy coach, John Cantu used to own a comedy club in San Francisco called the Holy City Zoo. Lots of famous comedians started their comedy careers there. But like he would tell you, it’s not important that he worked with Robin Williams, Dana Carvey, Paula Poundstone, etc. What is important is that he was at the Holy City Zoo when they were just unknown people, learning how to get up in front of other people and communicate using only their voice, their material and their gestures.

This is where most of us find ourselves as speakers. Not famous - just somebody trying to communicate.

When John began giving presentations, he took his many years of running comedy clubs and coaching comedians and applied it to giving speeches.

The results of that experience is here in DVD form, “How Not To Bore Your Audience To Death!”

No longer is it necessary to sweat out hundreds of speeches to glean the experience needed to make you a more confident and dynamic speaker.

And anybody can use these techniques!

We know there are three parts of a speech - a beginning, a middle and an end.

But what’s not always clear to us is that there are three parts to a presentation and it doesn’t begin and end with our speaking material. There is our voice and body as well. Vital parts needed to add energy and interest to our presentation.

In this Live Recording, John Cantu gives you specific techniques anyone can use. Specific techniques to add energy and interest not only to your material - but to your voice and body dynamics as well.

TECHNIQUES SUCH AS:

	How to blow your audience out of the water by getting them to identifying with you on an emotional level.
	How to make boring facts and figures interesting.
	How to find the right vocabulary that makes people WANT to hear what you have to say.
	How to rehearse your speech so the audience wants to REMEMBER what you say.
	How to divide up your content so you finish on time and don’t run over.
	How to project your voice.
	How to rehearse with a microphone so it becomes an organic part of your speaking persona.
	How to make your gestures dynamic, natural and big enough for the stage.
	How to be exciting and memorable by learning Robin Williams’ secret for using the platform.
	How to use humor and be bomb proof.
	Timing - what it is and how to get it.

 

With this DVD you’ll discover how to keep your audience’s attention with your voice, body and material using

Easy, can-do techniques anyone can learn and use.

"Your stuff is so doable! Your professional advice has enabled me to help add humor to my students' and my presentations."

Dr. Abby Lynn Ross

"Using your ideas helped me "close" many more sales and develop a better relationship with my customers.

I found that I could see the decision maker more readily, and communicate sensitive topics with greater ease (such as contentious customer service issues.)

Later, as I started speaking professionally full time, I have consciously used your concepts to gain and maintain audience interest. People learn and listen when it's fun!

Your insight into communication is valuable for everyone who wants to improve their talking skills.

Peter Moritz, corporate consulting, motivational presentations, and personal coaching.

"Most books or articles that I've read on incorporating humor say something like "Look around for funny situations." What I feel is fantastic is the instruction -- the how to's, the techniques, the analysis, the skill building...specific how to's for those of us who really, really, really have to work on being humorous."
