We are here to learn about public speaking. In our episode today, we will explore the power of storytelling. Here is a fact. People, audiences do not remember facts, charts, numbers, graphs, not even philosophies, they remember stories. So no matter what your topic is, stories are key. I am going to share with you a three step process, that I have been using for years, on how to structure a story. It is called PIP or P-I-P. The first P stands for premise, in other words, the main idea, the main point; I stands for illustration, and that is the meat of your actual story itself. The final P stands for point, or the lesson learned. What I want to do now is actually tell you a story, and show you how to use PIP, these three steps in the process. Ladies and gentlemen, networking is essential. A few years ago, I walked into a room, did not know a single person, but I did start a conversation with a nice gentleman named Harvey. Four years later, we ended up working together only because of our continued mutually valuable relationship. I never would have got that business without first connecting with Harvey on that day. The lesson is guys, you never know, every single person has potential. Now you see how I use PIP, the premise, the illustration and the point. That is how to assure that your stories are unforgettable.
