Presentation Training Workshop:
How to Easily Do a Presentation Introduction

In this article, I'm going to talk to you about how to easily start your presentation, or do the introduction to a presentation. I think it's always important to use a simple, effective introduction expression at the beginning of a presentation.

Why?

Well, the reason is that you'll be nervous because of the presentation and because you want to make a good impression. The first thing you say will create the atmosphere for your whole presentation, so it's very important to use a good introduction expression. And lucky for you, I've got a super-easy introduction you can use to make a good impression and give you some confidence.

Another great thing about this expression is that your audience will think you are very polite and have good manners. But the best part is that it's easy to remember and you can use it for every presentation.

The Expression

You may already know this one, it's "Thank you for being here today. I'm ____ (and I'm) from ____. I'm here today to talk to you about ____"

A variation of this is "Thank you for joining me here this evening/afternoon/morning. I'm ____ (and I'm) from ____. I'm here today to talk to you about ____"

Here's an example: Thank you for being here today. I'm Carl from ABC Inc. I'm here today to talk to you about effective marketing techniques.

Action

What good is a tool without a plan of action, right? So here's what I'd like you to do:

1. Write the first sentence of your introduction using the expression you learned today.

2. Practice it until you memorize it and feel comfortable and relaxed.

3. Use it for your next presentation and feel like a winner!
