  9. Seven Questions to Knowing Your Audience 1 What are they like? Demographics and psychographics are a great start, but connecting with your audience means understanding them on a personal level. Take a walk in their shoes and describe what their life looks like each day. 2 Why are they here? What do they think they’re going to get out of this presentation? Why did they come to hear you? Are they willing participants or mandatory attendees? This is also a bit of a situation analysis. 3 What keeps them up at night? Insert a representative Everyone has a fear, a pain point, a thorn in the side. Let your audience know you picture or illustration of an empathize—and offer a solution. audience member in this rectangle. It helps to put a face on the audience. 4 How can you solve their problem? What’s in it for the audience? How are you going to make their lives better? 5 What do you want them to do? Answer the question “so what?”—and make sure there’s clear action for your audience to take. 6 How can you best reach them? People vary in how they receive information. This can include the set up of the room to the availability of materials after the presentation. Give the audience what they want, how they want it. 7 How might they resist? What will keep them from adopting your message and carrying out your call to action? © duarte.com 2008
  10. Powerpoint and slide decks get a bad rap. Communicators must know who they are talking to and present with a purpose. One way to get there is to realize the difference between notes, slides and handouts. With slide design, less is more. It’s not about winning design awards, it’s about being clear to your audience. Get help with graphics and gain info architecture knowledge - don’t be shy. Your degree and job title mean nothing, your curiosity means everything. Ask me, I can help and I think you’re really swell.
