Public Speaking Audience - Facts

To succeed in public speaking you will need to use facts to support your ideas and provide information. The next technique is about how to keep a public speaking audience interested when using facts.

State facts in an interesting way

Facts can be dull and they are cold; they do not touch the listener's heart. Listeners will quickly lose interest if bombarded with them. However, facts add weight to your speech. Use facts that are clear concrete and interesting. State them in a way that makes them easy to grasp e.g. don't say: The death rate in China is high, instead use, Every time you breathe someone in China dies.

A public speaking audience will appreciate the extra effort you have put in for their benefit.
