How to build up your speech

Fellow speaker,

Here are two ways to build up the length of your speech:
  1. Add in more PARTS* for each main point
  2. Add more main points
The advantage of adding in more PARTS for each main point is you don't have to remember as many main points.  You can give a 60 - 90 minute speech on 2 to 3 points by adding more PARTS for each point.  In calculating how many PARTS you need, consider that each PARTS takes about 7 - 10 minutes to tell.

Making it longer,

Tim
