• check for time... stay in limits... refine or
shave if necessary. Leave time for questions.
- learn smooth handling of machines, notes,
visuals, etc.
- keep refining as you practice. If something
doesn't ' flow' or if you stumble ... change it.
- make good notes on cards and practice with
them
Keep reducing notes. When you know your speech
sufficiently, you should only require ' key' words on
notes.
NOTE: Number your note cards!!! If you drop them
( and it happens) they can be quickly regrouped if
numbered.
NOTE: If you have allowed time for questions, have a
' filler' bit of information in case no questions are asked.
See " Q u e s t i o n s " this chapter

dynamite closing line) till after the questions. The jasj.

you are thanked). If a gift is presented ( not cash), say
thanks and open it to show audience.
