By hook or by...

Fellow speaker,

World Champion speaker Craig Valentine says there are several hooks you can use to effectively hook the audience into listening to your speech:
  • Statement - make a statement that will cause the audience to wonder what it means
  • Next time - end your speech at a dramatic point and then promise to finish it "next time"
Hookery,
