Speakers: How to Build Trust and Influence With Videos – Podcast 39

The age of virtual speaking or presentations is upon us and it’s changing the rules when it comes to winning attention and trust from your target audiences.

Advances in the quality and range of what’s possible with Skype, Hangouts on Air, Tele-seminars, Video Messaging, Pod-casting, etc. have opened up new doors to reach your target audiences. Now you can share your messages with more people, more quickly, and at less cost than ever before..and all without having to bother with planes, trains, or automobiles or spending a fortune on expensive tele-conferencing kit or connections.

And as these technologies have come on in leaps and bounds in recent years, event organisers are increasingly expecting speakers to use these tools before, after, and even during speaking engagements. And this trend won’t stop any time soon.

This means that it’s no longer enough for a speaker to know what it takes to capture hearts and minds from those who sit before you…

…You also need to figure out how to win attention, engagement, and trust from an audience when they’re not in the same room as you.

And, here’s the thing. You can’t and mustn’t share ideas and messages through videos in the same ways you do when in live, face-to-face situations; they’re very different.

And that’s the topic addressed in today’s expert interview when I discuss what it really takes to build trust and influence via online videos with the world’s leading authority on Google hangouts Ronnie Bincer – AKA The Hangout Helper.
