The Way to Your Audience's Heart is through their Right Brain
The success of any presentation can be difficult to measure concretely. Once a presentation is over and the audience files out of the room, in many cases the presenter has only limited ongoing contact with them-or more likely, none at all.
Sometimes, there is a clear Call-to-Action (CTA) at the end that encourages attendees to place a phone call, send an email, or visit a Web site. In situations such as these, today's technology enables us to accurately track responses and understand the impact of our efforts, giving us pointers on how to improve our results next time.
However, with presentations that are not being used for a quantifiable goal - such as a lead-generation or financing - measuring the effect of messaging can be a challenging, nebulous proposition. How can you ensure that your message is resonating with your audience when your CTA is either "soft" or non-existent? In these situations, you can capture your audience's heart by using a few simple tips to get in their heads, tapping into their right brain capabilities and successfully cementing your message.
