I “Sold” the Colon Cleanse

Last night I “sold” the colon cleanse, so to speak! My demonstration of Dr. Natura’s Colonix was a riveting and comedic success. Entitled “Are you clean inside?” I kept the audience transfixed for 7 minutes on the subject of parasites, toxins, and “evacuations” :) In retrospect, Paul and I were in agreement that we should have recorded it, and the general consensus of my evaluator was that I should be in sales. I was really on a high and gave it my all. 37 speeches delivered now in Toastmasters and I plan to keep going! I am finding a continual passion for my craft and are constantly seeking new ways and opportunities to grow and improve.

The Demonstration Talk

09_2010_colonix

I anticipate that the “Speaking to Inform” manual will continue to be intriguing, entertaining (for me) and informative (for everyone else). Tonight I am doing a promotional/demonstration of the Dr. Natura Colonix. Rest assured, I will not be sharing details that may affect the faint of heart!

Objective:

  • Prepare a demonstration speech to clearly explain a process, product, or activity.
  • Conduct the demonstration as part of a speech delivered without notes.

Assignment

For this project, prepare, rehearse, and deliver a five- to seven- minute talk which demonstrates a process, product, or activity of your choice. You may use your body for the demonstration (such as skiing techniques), a physical object (such as casting with a fishing pole) or a model (such as an airplane).Because your attention will be devoted for the demonstration, you should not use notes for this project.

Area 62 Contest

This Friday is the Area 62 Contest. It should be an excellent evening!

Upcoming Week

The upcoming week looks to be busy and productive. I am judging at 2 contests and have a 7am Area Governor visit. I can’t say that I am relishing the early morning endeavor, but I am very much looking forward to the contests. In other news, I am rather stoked that I have a school interested in me running a Youth Leadership program for their students in November and December. Sharing my speaking passion with the students will be an exciting project for me and a fantastic learning experience for them.
