"I've read a million sales books and taken almost a million classes in formal sales training, but your practical techniques make all those pale in comparison. It makes such sense!" -Jackie Schwartz, Planet Einstein Pitch Ninja provides practical steps for making your presentation dynamic and engaging by providing a simple framework that emphasizes body language and other non-verbal cues to effectively persuade an audience. Pitch Ninja is based on the Super-Awesome Presentation Zone Program that divides the space used by the presenter into three distinct zones: - The Intimacy Zone is where you make personal connections with audience members - The Excitement Zone is where you pump up the crowd and get them engaged in your message - The Information Zone is where you convey the details of your presentation to decision makers Each zone has a specific set of behaviors including eye contact, arm movements, gestures and body position. The result is a highly engaging presentation that makes your ideas pop and dazzles your audience. Perfect for the beginner or seasoned professional, every speaker can be a Pitch Ninja!
