“Hello everyone. Today I’m going to explain our new sales
plan to everybody. This year, our main focus is on opening
new markets. Next, we have a lot of concrete work to do,
but the most important thing is for everyone to work hard
together. Let’s go for it!” What do you think?

Good. But you’re too serious. You need to reduce the dis-
tance between you and your listeners.

Oh. Then I’ll try it again. “Hello everyone. Today I’m going
to explain our new sales plan to everybody. I feel very hon-
ored. This year, our focus is on opening new markets. Next,
we have a lot of concrete work to do, but the most important
thing is for everyone to work hard together. Let’s go for it!”

Hmm. Much better than the last time. But at key points,
your tone can be a little more emphatic. For example, “the
new sales plan,” “everyone working hard together.”

I think that’s too exaggerated. It’s like acting in a play.

It’s not exaggerated at all. If you don’t make the key points
stand out, there’s no way to get everyone excited.

Fine, fine. I’ll try again. “Hello, everyone. Today I’m going
to introduce the new sales plan to everyone. I feel very
honored. This year, our focus is on opening new markets.
We have a lot of concrete work to do, but the most important
thing is for everyone to work hard. Let’s go for it!”

But I still have a lot of stuff I want to say. Practicing like this
is more than I can handle.

Actually, you only need to pay attention to the mood, the
tone, and making the listeners feel interested. If you do
that, it’ll be a success.
A: ......
` ˇ ` ` ı ` ` ¯ ˇ
na wo zai lian y¯ bian. dajia hao......
Then I’ll practice it one more time. “Hello everyone...”
