Personal Stories= AWESOME CREDIBILITY

Have you ever watched a speaker, liked what he said but still DOUBTED his credibility?

One of the reasons it happens is because most speakers never know how to use their personal stories effectively to build solid trust with their audience.

I had to learn this lesson…the hard way.

As you know I didn’t start off as a SUCCESSFUL SPEAKER.

NO!

I was born & brought up in a very small city called Siliguri and I never studied in a big school. I studied in a Bengali-Medium Government School, and the YEARLY school tuition was 289 Rupees.

I had a few business failures in the past.

I had serious FOCUS problem.

When my audience members come to know about that, they trust my ideas/techniques/tools with whole heart because now they know I have made those ideas work in my life, and now they can use these techniques to achieve greater results in their lives.

Personal stories lead to credibility.

Credibility leads to trust.

And, trust is POWERFUL.

Most people come to the stage only to brag. They brag about their success. They brag about their knowledge. And they brag about their “awesomeness.” And then they do a data dump (they throw information at their audience just like a lonely man throws small rocks at the small pond).

And their audience DISCONNECTS, immediately.

Remember that today’s audience is SMARTER.

Today, we don’t want to a topic taught by a bossy person. We want an idea shared by a friendly expert.

And when you use personal stories (not cow-goat stories, but personal stories) in the right way, audience will be attracted to your message.

That means you gain more respect.

That means you gain more connection.

That means receive more CREDIBILITY.

How are you using personal stories in your current presentations to build CREDIBILITY?
