Make sure your introduction answers the questions, “Why this speaker?”
Be upbeat!
Share something personal about the speaker.
Don’t steal the speaker’s thunder or material.
Don’t say, “Our speaker needs no introduction.”
If you are going to use humor, clear it with the speaker first.
“The service that Rich Tiller and his team offered was exceptional. They were able to understand my needs and match that with the perfect speaker for my audience. Would I use them again in the future? You bet I would!”
