12 Sep 7 Public Speaking Tips for Small Business Owners

Public speaking, also known as oratory or oration, is the process or act of performing a speech to a live audience. For small business owners, public speaking is a skill that is needed to advance the business and create more opportunities for growth. Small business owners who have poor public speaking skills tend to often have a poor reputation or impression on their investors and or customers alike. It becomes a sign of a lack of confidence, and thus they can end up losing substantial business contracts for their brands.

Below are some strategies to consider to become a better public speaker.

• Plan appropriately.
• Practice your stance.
• Engage with your audience.
• Pay attention to body language.
• Think positively.
• Cope with your nerves.
• Watch recordings of your speeches

I further described these strategies in this article that I wrote recently.
