HOW TO START A PITCH OR PRESENTATION

- Dominic from inflow.global here with two simple ideas about how to start your pitch or presentation.
#1. Dispense with the niceties!
Too may people start their presentations and speeches with boring small talk. If you want to get your audience off their iPhones and Blackberries you need to grab their attention, so dispense with all the niceties and get them to engage with what you are saying straight away.
#2. Start with a bang!
Do something a little bit different when you start your speech. I don't mean anything crazy, so no big stunts! What I mean is start with something that captures the imagination. Start with a fact, with a figure, with a quote, with a story, maybe a bit of video or a bit of music; something that’s going to really get them engaged. You want people to realise that you have started and for them to start paying you the attention you deserve.
I’d love to hear how you get on, so please share your comments with me in the box below.
Keep shining!

Hilariously he actually begins this video in the exact way he tell us NOT to start lol !
🤔🤦♂️🏽
This isn’t a presentation.😁😁😁 This is a tip
What do you mean?
@@learnwithsteves how is this not a presentation?
hahahh, at the end of the day we are goofy humans
Cheers Dominic. My ESL students will benefit greatly from your words of wisdom. My Spanish students are entering the world of public speaking by creating a movie pitch. Your straightforward and yet creative message will give them the "food for thought" we all need.
"I've got a gun!" Started with a bang like you suggested but didn't end well for me. Still up voted.
😂😂😂
🤣
😁🤣🤣🤣
😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂
You started your presentation exactly in the way yous said it shouldn't start!!!
"I am bla bla and in this video I will be talking about bla bla".
Apart from that, it's a good video and a very good advice.
Because he's not pitching anything to us
I agree 100%
@@aliyah2980 but the title already told us what he was gonna talk about, that's why we clicked on the video. so he could have just started telling us from the get go.
@@aliyah2980 He is pitching his idea of how to start a pitch
well he is trying too teach your noob as to start pitching because now you know you don't have to pitch like that
Thank you! the starting with a story worked with my high school graduation speech-everyone went wild. I really hope it works with my pitching
Thank you so much! Its a great help for those who are beginners or want to practice public speaking. More power!
Give examples, please
I love how he's main message was just enter with a blast. it already got me on the hook sadly it was only 2-3mins hahaha
lol an elevator pitch should last that long so he succeeded in his demonstration
I agree that Dominic started as he said not to but the info is great. Already altered the start of a pitch👍😀
Simple but sage advice. Excellent.
Thank you very much. Right to the point. Love it.
I love the video and yes yes you should always do start things like nobody ever done it and its all you yourself simple as that and its always a win win in life ))
thanks much !
That was actually very helpful. I’m thinking of ways to engage right now!
Nice video, straight to the point.
That was clear. Thank you!
Thank you Dominic! Right on
This was very helpful to me as i will be going to start pitching tmrrw🥰♥️

also him
0:05
but still thanks for the tip! It was a helpful video!
That is what I wanted to comment.
i had to look at this for a class and is just wondering how long intoductions have to be?
I have a pitch in a few minutes. This helped a lot! Looking for investors for our marketplace.
thank you good video!
Awesome thank you
Good! But you should've demonstrate.
is it advisable that when u start to pitch you demonstrate the product already like get to the point then somewhat explain it further
I'd like to add, he should have used ist by himself to demonstrate. he did exactly the thing he told to avoid.
Good luck for you❤❤❤❤❤❤
thank you!!
"Grab the audience attention!"
Me: Hey fckrs!! Good evening!!

Thank you, sir, good advice. 'Start with a bang'. For my story:
Five Million Dollars! Do you know how many zeros after 5?
Perfect
Wow thanks a lot for telling us what to do and not giving examples on what to do. Learned a lot.
You don't get everything handed on a plate to you in life mate
@@sylvanwiersma are you new to internet?
@@Denden-mx9gl yes yes very new, oh you made me look so stupid noo :(
@@sylvanwiersma how old are you? you talk like a middle schooler.
@@Denden-mx9gl Okay, first of all I was obviously being sarcastic, that's not the way that I talk. Secondly, Why would you ask someone on the internet their age, you can't even make use of this video because you dIdN't gEt aN eXaMpLE.
And lastly, you are out here criticizing a guy that helps people out for free on the internet.
So, when it comes to age, you may be older. But maturity is still a point of growth for you my friend 😉.
Start at 1:14, you're welcome.
nice data
THANK YOU FOR YOUR INPUT OF INFO MAY I SEND YOU AN EXAMPLE OR ROUGH DRAFT
Please give more example of that BANG
Or perhaps you could create another post called "99 ways to BANG your pitch"
this is good
Great👍😊
Just the English, However, you did the same thing that any other else could have done, here you're: I'm Dominic Colenso, in this video, I wanna talk blablablaaa.....
i love your accent bro
Good advice
Hey Alison, check out my sales pitch that did wonders for me czcams.com/video/6TRkt_7zq18/video.html
Thanks
Nice video. But at the end of it I went back at the beginning to see his BANG and actually he started the video right exactly how he said not to. Uhm...
sir please give me an Example .
If a company want to sell a pouch with any person . But that person is a renowned cafeteria with multiple franchises in 24 colleges. the pouch price is 30 INR Max discount is 20 %. but the cafeteria is looking to expand it range of beverages and snacks . Then how to prepare a pitch to that cafeteria to convenience them to purchase 200 units of the company products and if the client wants to purchase 200 units at INR 20 each how will you negotiate the price .if decrease then how to handle
Funny who u start your video the 'normal' way on this topic .
Good content thanks.
Amazing sales pitch czcams.com/video/6TRkt_7zq18/video.html

A little more detail on the "Big Bang" intro - examples!!!
can you provide some examples?
it's funny that when I started watching this video I was using my phone..
give me examples of "start off with a bang pitch". How? What to say
i liked this
❤
Tnx
Hi people, how long should a pitch be?
I never start with a "good morning"... People think that's rude. :(
This is the most unhelpful video ever.
👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
Does a pitch vedio require your face..! Or just some vedios music and so on
Answer @ 1:02
I’m trying to come up with a pitch to get patients. I’m a dental hygiene student and we get graded on the patients we can bring in and clean their teeth. I made business cards so I need to pass them out to the public like in Walmart or mall etc
btw btw.........You also didn't say something of importance but yah you got my attention.
Next time you start with what u told us today.🤣🤣
umm u didn't give us an example on how to start with a bang. do I just bang my fist on the table or??
Start wtih a fact, figure, quote, story, video, music or anything else that will grab the attention and get the audience engaged.
Bro looks like Richard Hammond
A cold opening, you mean
😗
I dey
so start with allahatbar boom
So you recommend to start with a bang, en not to open with 'Good afternoon, I am X'.
Why do you start without a bang like you recommend, and say "Hi I am dominic Colenso. In this video I want to..."
Okay 🆗
love it but should've added an example or demonstration... matter of fact you could've started off your presentation in that way. I think I speak for most that we watched until the end because it was only 2 mins long. Thanks for the tip anyways
😳
Why do exactly what you're telling us not to do?
I immediately skipped to the middle of the video when he started talking.
😂
Dan sy tidak paham
To skip the boring intro with big hand-waving gestures ... don't watch this at all.
I am redy
GOD CALLS US TO THE HOLY SUPRANATURAL WAR AGAINST SATAN AGAINST SINS AGAINST THE INVISIBLE SPIRITS OF THE DEVILS WHO BEGIN WITH SATAN'S REJECTION OF ALL SINS AND THE FULFILLMENT OF HIS 10 LAWS

In print it said how to start a pitch, then you came on video and said this is about "how to start a pitch, then you said don't waste time starting out just get in there and talk about what you have to talk about....I could watch the first minute on speed X2 IF you have nothing to say Don't make a video, and if you though this was good.....Good luck.
And you would do a better job by giving an example to your audience. Just saying
