Watch: How to communicate in media (or anywhere) and be remembered. ▶️ Key points covered in this episode: #1 We narrowcast, not broadcast. Every marketing training or speaking school teaches the benefits of knowing your audience. We hear it many times, but how often do you get to listen to someone in a conference, or someone interviewed by the media, who is not resonating with the recipients of the message they try to convey? So, think about your audience. For example, if the media interviews you – your audience is really not that journalist. Your audience is the person at home who might try out your brand, product, or service. Think about that person who's at home on the couch – that's who you're talking to. You're not talking to everyone. #2 "Edutain" to get your message across. Influential speakers are educating and entertaining. I've been training CEOs, and the one thing they tell me all the time is, "I'm not a performer. I don't want to entertain". Well, I tell that CEO and I tell you that it really is your job to be one if you want to make sure you get your message across. So, we have to educate. We get up, we show our smarts – but we have to captivate an audience and keep them for five, 10, 20, 40 minutes. One of those ways is to be more provocative. The Latin origin of being provocative is really about challenging and changing. How can you change the status quo and be provocative in your specific industry? And then, how can you communicate how you're different? You can't compete with other companies head-to-head with what they're doing, but you can change the status quo and communicate how you are different. #3 Be vulnerable to be memorable. Tell those stories that touch the heart – but, before achieving that, what's important is to practice, practice, practice. If you don't prepare and rehearse your speech, talk, or two-minute video for YouTube, it's tough to be vulnerable, be present, and deliver with emotion. Every word you're saying may lack impact if you just read them. _________________________ I've recently created a special program dedicated to healthcare professionals who need media training so they can confidently show up on camera, attract more patients, move up in their careers, and let their expertise shine.
