Cmon people... this woman is giving you golden, detailed information on how to deliver a clear message. It's an INSTRUCTIONAL video..that's why it's long. I thought she delivered the facts and information concisely and confidently on how to achieve this..
The most important point for me on this message was to focus on "Getting rid of the extra details". I am very detail-oriented and want to fill the space or message with the "whole" idea, which I have found overwhelms the listener/receiver. Thanks for posting this valuable video.
I'm surprised at the amount of negative comments on the video. I've written down a load of notes for a speech I'm doing that I'm improving. The two main things I'm taking away are: the idea of opening by marrying 'what is most promotable about me?' With the thing that will reel my audience in. I think that's a nice structure, very clear! Also, I'm a motivational speaker, and I am SO walking up to people in the street and asking them if they'd like a 15minute motivational speech (I've done this kind of thing before and people love it). Thanks Marie and Rachael!
EXCELLENT ADVICE to apply to our Marketing! 1) Meet People Where They Are To Take Them Where They Want To Go. 2) Every Pitch Should Be Personalized. 3) Get Rid of Extra Details. 4) Test Drive Your Message With People Outside of Your Inner Circle. THANK YOU!
1. Meet people where they are to take them where they want to go - Figure out what the person you are communicating with cares about. That is your point of entry. 2. Let go of insider jargon and speak in words that everybody can understand 3. Get rid of extra details 4. Test drive your messaging on people outside of your expertise and circle (family/friends)
I thought this was a great example of broad strokes coaching - deliver info in 4 steps; the importance of clarity of message, knowing your audience/media outlet, position and communicate your message effectively and tie it all together. Julie has high energy is all - she was a live tv producer. I use my hands often when I communicate. I appreciated the content. Just like all of us, she's a work in progress.
Your notes we so helpful! I couldn't listen to her when she started talking about personalization and did not personalize her message to Marie's audience. Oy vey. Your notes saved me the pain. Thank you!!
Wow - focusing on the moment and how that applies to the person I'm pitching to is exactly what I'm working on right now. Like you, Marie, I've had a LOT of different jobs, careers and am trained in a variety of areas. But if I get off-track and "casually" mention my 25-year massage therapy career or that I'm still a flight attendant, those histories then become the focus of what the person wants to hear about - NOT my new book or my workshop on helping people create a vision and mission for life. Thanks for another great episode!
ladies and gents... relax lol Hand gestures make you energetic, and this topic needs energy. However my guess for anyone put- off by hand gestures, really, distractions must come pretty frequent. this video was useful.
Be nice people. I don't find the hand gestures distracting. Rachel is already doing you a favor here, be thankful. Yes, I agree that her message can be more simplified, but nobody is perfect. So take what you can, and keep your hurtful comments to yourself.
You're right! I noticed all three of the things that other people mentioned, but had no trouble in focusing on what was being said. Focus people, focus! Do yourself a favor and be ready for the nuggets of wisdom. There are always a few in MarieTV.
Thank you for this video! Great info from both of you. Definitely point 4 of test driving my message with people outside of my field of expertise will help a lot.
The best way that I've found to test drive my message is to do split A/B testing on Facebook, not with friends, but with facebook ads at about $5 each message. It has worked wonders for my marketing and well worth the $15 - $35 I spent on it. To put it bluntly, friends and family WILL lie to you, but the numbers from complete strangers won't. Once you get your message right, you will have a base to go off of for the duration of whatever it is you are pitching.
Hey could you give a bit more details on that? So you write a message and add a A/B score to it, then you boost it and see what happens? And do people really take time to respond and evaluate? Thanks
Lots of great tips. Always know who you are pitching. My biggest pet peeve is when someone asks me to write about their company. If they read my work, they would know I don't write about specific companies, I write about entrepreneurial finance, VC trends, etc. And it's always obvious when they are sending an email blast to every blogger in the world.
Marie, I loved this episode (loyal watcher!) and what was great about it was that I had a lightbulb moment during the episode that helped me decide on some website changes I'd been meaning to tackle. Keep up the great content!!
I love that these women don't need to downplay their attractiveness to get a message across. In my eyes it makes for a great experience. I get eye candy and advice from some great minds. Way to go!
Finding an audience to test my message! I need to work on getting clean feedback from people outside my support group. I would love it if you could cover the importance of mentorship "finding a mentor" in one of your future videos. Stay zen and shine!
The title alone was all I needed. I will keep this in mind as I go through life. Even though I throughly thought out my point it doesn't guarantee that the person I'm speaking to gets it.
You know that feeling when you're trying so hard to convey a message that you think about what you talk while you talk -- confusing everybody and yourself? That's her. Marie is a total pro and handles it so well. Rachel is usually a lot more authentic, this time she sounded extremely distressed and rehearsed. Very informative as a case study and some really valuable nuggets of advice. Thanks!
Thank you Marie and Rachel for spending your valuable time to share these priceless information with the world to help us all to perfect our messages to grow our businesses. Thank you ☺
If you just listen to this clip without watching it, her message is a lot clearer! Or at least, if you can focus on what she's saying and not all the over the top gestures
I think she es giving a great message and put it very clear for everyone to learn. The gesture enfatice the message and are not distracted to me at all.
This was perfect right now! Tomorrow, I am giving an hour & a half nutrition workshop, near my home in Keyport, New Jersey. It is my first ever! I have never given a presentation longer than 15 minutes, and even then, I start to get hot & speed up my words very quickly! Yikes! I know that I have valuable information to share, I am just worried I will not do well and it makes me so nervous 😬 I need to remember to keep it simple and fun!
Not sure why people are complaining about gestures. Guys its (2017), the advent of attention driven markets is upon us! The gist is that you only have milliseconds of a person's attention to make an impression or seal a deal. You'll either use that insight to your advantage or not. Great content Marie!
I thought this was great! All four points were on point. I especially liked the "meet people where they are" - I call this "getting in their moment." It's all about understanding interests. This is also powerful in negotiations as well! Thanks for the video.
I love your videos I don't have my own business, however my goal is to work on professionalism and find my inner strengths and go for what ever that may be !!
Thanks Marie. There was some great one liners in this episode. I took a stack of notes that I will keep in mind when refining the content for my live workshops.
Mrs Hanfling just seems incredibly nervous, as I would be if I were in front of a camera after a lifetime spent behind the scenes. Public speaking advice is often to use a lot of hand gestures, and she was probably nervous about being on Marie TV and so read some books on the topic before coming on the show. She is not a professional speaker, but she does have something to say worth hearing. Just open another tab and listen as if it were an audio interview, her points are good and well communicated, don't get distracted by hand gestures.
I tell my sales folks to talk less and listen 200% more. They are usually amazed at how much the prospect already knows & understands. Too much talking in sales is my pet peeve. Your videos, however, Marie are very well done and always helpful. And, I'm a guy!
Good point. Listening is key to understanding and relating with a client. In every sales- related position that has a product or service, I've encountered that the customer may have more knowledge about than you may know, before speaking with them. It is not advised to assume that one should act superior in knowledge, but rather, be relatable to the client's needs in that product/ service, since they likely sought you for help! If you initially approach the client, asking a few light probing questions helps to open the conversation from their end. I find that this tip helps: keep your internal thoughts to yourself, unless it helps their conversation move you toward your goal.
This was a great video and reminder to be clear on your own message so that you can simplify it for others. Good stuff! Who has a message that they would like to test drive?
Thank You on todays episode! Soo true and in my case it really hit me when you are pitching to a new client to REALLY personalize the message for that specific person. I realized they do notice that and it so true. I just sent out my first pitch to a client and hoping to ger results! keep u posted Marie!
Yes, this is all obvious to someone who does presentations and writes resumes and sells something in any form all the time, but to someone who doesn't do any of those things regularly or who is new to this information it may not be obvious, and even if it is - repetition is how we learn.
This was such a helpful video. Both ladies are so sweet and articulate. Easy to understand and used great examples I was able to follow. Take always for me we're a few questions to ask: Who am I talking to? How will it relate to my story? How can I most successfully connect to them?
Hi Marie You are my coach and role model . I love you so much marie 💕 It's abvious that you were raised by a great mom .lucky you... But my mother isn't like that She thinks it's a man responsibility to make a woman happy😞
ON target! thanks. I was going to quit Toastmasters...a bit of an organized drag...but this video made me realize I have a lot to practice...and T M can be my audience.
I'll use this group as my test drive. Hows this sound for a simple message for my 5 week course: "Embrace Death so you can Spring into Life" Target is anyone who has, or will have, a loved one passing on. It moves you beyond grief, igniting human potential.
Mimmy Loftin I've changed it to Finding Peace when Death is Near, and yes it guides people who are fearing death through grief and into their potential
I like Finding Peace when Death is Near, but I wonder if 'Peace' is too optimistic of a word...people deal with a lot of guilt during loss and may not think that peace is possible or even gives their loved one the appropriate respect. Maybe think about "Finding Strength when Death is Near' or something of that nature? Talking about igniting human potential after grief is too big of a leap for me. I'd be just thinking, "How do I carry on with my every day life?" The other angle from a messaging perspective may be around 'honoring that person's life by continuing to embrace your potential every day.'
Alicia Babette Thank you for sharing this :) I'm getting clearer on my target market and their needs. Creating the course was one thing, marketing it and finding my tribe another. I have changed the byline to read "A practice of walking with faith". It is for people who are on the fence about finding peace when death is near. They know from a deep place within, that death itself is ok (the end of one journey and the beginning of the next) and need support in accepting that it is ok to be ok with death... does this make sense to people? I'd love to hear any feedback. In the course I guide them as they have a good look and heart to heart with their worst fears. It's actually more about overcoming fear than finding peace... needs further work but these discussions help a lot :)
Hello, I wanted to say Thank you this was an amazing video. Im an Author and Speaker for survivors of child abuse and domestic violence. I have been struggling to Master each of these steps which was only because I didn't know the steps, The video helped me understand each area that I should be focusing on and why. The 4th was quite funny Test Drive Your Message and talking to family...its true and I do that all the time...I guess its time for me to get a new audience...lol...
For how credible & experienced this guest is... she sucks. Her hand gestures are distracting and robotic. She is a media producer with 20 years of experience, but she can't get her own message across in a straight forward interview? Interview about simplifying a message then rambles hers.
It is a bit hard to watch. I finally covered the bottom of the screen to prevent seeing her distracting hand gestures. Marie was great at controlling the conversation. Overall, I did get something out of this interview.
Love the video thanks, just wondering If I could do a test drive!! Looking to find out if this is clear enough," Attract The Outcomes You Want, Create the Life You Deserve" Whether you're afraid of letting go of the past, or feel overwhelmed by the future, we'll show you a simply strategy to move forward with action. Any input would be great! This applies to all areas, life, career, and relationship!!
Thanks Marie, the speaker was either a bit nervous, or not used to interviewing on camera; it was a bit distracting, but overall the information was good.
I see people feel distracted by this woman, but I have seen this video more than once and that never crossed my mind. I found her engaging and that's it. Interesting to note that maybe different styles of communication suit different people.
I'm not surprised this is about communication, Marie is one of the few women on RUclips who didn't turn me off almost immediately due to over-exaggerating a false sense of annoying glee. Yeah yeah, some guys do it to, but not nearly as many.
I really wanted to be helped with this info but I found her to be too confusing, too unclear. She said points that should sound clear but actually they don't sink it, aren't accessible.
Loved this! And loved the input/advice/ ideas from the comments section. I’m glad to know that I’m not alone and that other competent people are looking for tips to improve. :)
“Those who want to learn, learn. A message is good to you when you’ve allowed it to effect you.” So for the people complaining I would either try watching the video first to listen and second time to take notes. And ask yourself questions.
Oooh, I hate to simply my language although I know I have to sometimes. It takes away some of the impact for me. Even if they "get it" in their own way, I feel I have to walk away knowing they only have 70% of the message. Like, people talk about winning, when trying to win is their problem. They actually want to succeed; move above the fight, not win and stay in the pit. To do that one needs to surrender not submit. The differences are tiny, but huge! I know I just lost everybody right now. = }
I think her message was a bit light. I would have enjoyed more specific information. (IMHO) Marie I thought you were clearer than she. She needs to sit on those hands! It looks like she is strenuously restraining herself.
Reading all these comments whining about this beautiful AND successful lady * roll eyes * If you have nothing nice to say, just keep quiet. You don't like it, don't watch. So simple.
I notice how Marie uses imitation listening. She uses more hand gestures in this video than usual because her guest is using them. but not nearly as much as this lady
I'm 1:47 in, what the hell is going on with her hands. I wish they were out of frame, it's quite distracting! Marie is a great communicator, but I don't think Rachel is strong in this setting
Whoa actually her hair is freaking me out! And i'm not even up to that part. She is hyper kinetic, hope the message is helpful though! Whoa she does a "Joker Face" tha'ts kindof creepy.
gosh..I was so looking fwd to the answer. She is confusing me with her body, her eyes, her weird mouth expressions and more importanly..(because, I scrolled away from the visual)...I have no idea what she is saying. I'm 7:59 minutes in. I LOVE your work Marie, any chance you could handle this YOURSELF in a Q&A? Would so appreciate the learning
I really appreciate this content. Fantastic. However, I am curious about her body language and her apparent over use of hand gestures, I found that really distracting, but apart from that, great info! Thank you.
Cmon people... this woman is giving you golden, detailed information on how to deliver a clear message. It's an INSTRUCTIONAL video..that's why it's long. I thought she delivered the facts and information concisely and confidently on how to achieve this..
The most important point for me on this message was to focus on "Getting rid of the extra details". I am very detail-oriented and want to fill the space or message with the "whole" idea, which I have found overwhelms the listener/receiver. Thanks for posting this valuable video.
Exactly, I think of it like this: using the minimum amount of information get your point across. Let your mark sell themselves the rest.
I can totally relate. Thank you for this comment!
I'm surprised at the amount of negative comments on the video. I've written down a load of notes for a speech I'm doing that I'm improving.
The two main things I'm taking away are: the idea of opening by marrying 'what is most promotable about me?' With the thing that will reel my audience in. I think that's a nice structure, very clear!
Also, I'm a motivational speaker, and I am SO walking up to people in the street and asking them if they'd like a 15minute motivational speech (I've done this kind of thing before and people love it). Thanks Marie and Rachael!
"the smartest thing you can do is make someone understand you"
Absolutely. I also like the idea of getting rid of the details which go hand-in-hand with understanding.
EXCELLENT ADVICE to apply to our Marketing! 1) Meet People Where They Are To Take Them Where They Want To Go. 2) Every Pitch Should Be Personalized. 3) Get Rid of Extra Details. 4) Test Drive Your Message With People Outside of Your Inner Circle. THANK YOU!

I couldn't finish this. If you confuse people, you lose people.
But great job Marie, for trying to get her to focus on the topic.
ladies and gents... relax lol
Hand gestures make you energetic, and this topic needs energy. However my guess for anyone put- off by hand gestures, really, distractions must come pretty frequent.

while others are complaining about the hand gestures, I'll listen to the advice and get a little more closer to closing deals
You're right! I noticed all three of the things that other people mentioned, but had no trouble in focusing on what was being said. Focus people, focus! Do yourself a favor and be ready for the nuggets of wisdom. There are always a few in MarieTV.
I loved how marie simplified the message, Rachel confused me at times and also her hands movement and eyes were super distracting
Thank you for this video! Great info from both of you. Definitely point 4 of test driving my message with people outside of my field of expertise will help a lot.

Thanks. I’m growing my nutrition consulting business and will message test with FB ads. Good advice.
Maria Malakhova the click-throughs, the likes, the shares. The engagement is your feedback.
Lots of great tips. Always know who you are pitching. My biggest pet peeve is when someone asks me to write about their company. If they read my work, they would know I don't write about specific companies, I write about entrepreneurial finance, VC trends, etc. And it's always obvious when they are sending an email blast to every blogger in the world.

I appreciate how you simplified this into four steps. I am going to try this out.
Finding an audience to test my message! I need to work on getting clean feedback from people outside my support group. I would love it if you could cover the importance of mentorship "finding a mentor" in one of your future videos. Stay zen and shine!
I like the reminder that people may not be paying full attention...hence the need to round up message at the end
The title alone was all I needed. I will keep this in mind as I go through life. Even though I throughly thought out my point it doesn't guarantee that the person I'm speaking to gets it.
You know that feeling when you're trying so hard to convey a message that you think about what you talk while you talk -- confusing everybody and yourself? That's her.
Marie is a total pro and handles it so well. Rachel is usually a lot more authentic, this time she sounded extremely distressed and rehearsed. Very informative as a case study and some really valuable nuggets of advice. Thanks!
This lady radiates positivity. Great tips. 🙌🏻
Thank you for being here and for those kind words.

The gesture enfatice the message and are not distracted to me at all.
Truth, confusion is too much for clients, I help then create more profits with less stress...easy! Thanks Marie! Love you!
It's so true that you tend to lose trust with people when you overcomplicate it and they can't understand you!
Great video Marie!
Don't watch, just listen :)
Too much FAKE hand gestures- like trying to listen to someone with spinach in their teeth 😝 can’t FOCUS on what they’re saying
I wish you had "buttoned it up" at the end and repeated what the four steps were.
This was perfect right now! Tomorrow, I am giving an hour & a half nutrition workshop, near my home in Keyport, New Jersey. It is my first ever! I have never given a presentation longer than 15 minutes, and even then, I start to get hot & speed up my words very quickly! Yikes! I know that I have valuable information to share, I am just worried I will not do well and it makes me so nervous 😬 I need to remember to keep it simple and fun!
Not sure why people are complaining about gestures. Guys its (2017), the advent of attention driven markets is upon us! The gist is that you only have milliseconds of a person's attention to make an impression or seal a deal. You'll either use that insight to your advantage or not. Great content Marie!
Great points! I have learned that speaking to folks who actually listen helps a bit too.
Thank you, Marie! You are a great mentor to me, and I love your Marie TV show... It is professional + impeccable + fun like you!
I thought this was great! All four points were on point. I especially liked the "meet people where they are" - I call this "getting in their moment." It's all about understanding interests. This is also powerful in negotiations as well! Thanks for the video.

Who has a message that they would like to test drive?
Love this one. I'm too emotional lol
You are so awesome Marie! Your show is so informative and sensible.
Thank You on todays episode! Soo true and in my case it really hit me when you are pitching to a new client to REALLY personalize the message for that specific person. I realized they do notice that and it so true. I just sent out my first pitch to a client and hoping to ger results!

Excellent tips, I have tested them and they really make the difference!
I think this is good advice for blogging too, not just media :)
blogging is media :)
This was such a helpful video. Both ladies are so sweet and articulate. Easy to understand and used great examples I was able to follow.
Take always for me we're a few questions to ask:
Who am I talking to? How will it relate to my story? How can I most successfully connect to them?
Hi Marie
You are my coach and role model .
I love you so much marie 💕
It's abvious that you were raised by a great mom .lucky you...
But my mother isn't like that
She thinks it's a man responsibility to make a woman happy😞
ON target! thanks. I was going to quit Toastmasters...a bit of an organized drag...but this video made me realize I have a lot to practice...and T M can be my audience.
when finishing a subject, circle up all the arguments, never end on a single note
Amazing video love 💕
Great points, very concise and helpful. Thanks!
This is all very simple but it is exactly what I need to develop!
👍great. People are always telling me I talk too fast and mumbled and I'm too random.
Awesome hair, nice flowers, and great advice. Thnx
I'll use this group as my test drive. Hows this sound for a simple message for my 5 week course: "Embrace Death so you can Spring into Life" Target is anyone who has, or will have, a loved one passing on. It moves you beyond grief, igniting human potential.

i just luv watching and listening to successful women specially those two are so inspiring 💘💘
I've been waiting for it all weeek :D such a happy moment when I see you've put up a new video! Thanks for everything Marie! :D xx

It is a bit hard to watch. I finally covered the bottom of the screen to prevent seeing her distracting hand gestures. Marie was great at controlling the conversation. Overall, I did get something out of this interview.
If you're wanting information on clarifying your message I would suggest the podcast "Building a StoryBrand" with Donald Miller.
ENGINEERED TRUTH I was totally thinking that! I had to just listen and stop watching because her hand gestures were distracting.
Crystal Sheffield-Baird Thanks so much for sharing about Donald Miller! It cleared up so much and I really love his message.
Love the video thanks, just wondering If I could do a test drive!! Looking to find out if this is clear enough," Attract The Outcomes You Want, Create the Life You Deserve" Whether you're afraid of letting go of the past, or feel overwhelmed by the future, we'll show you a simply strategy to move forward with action.

Thanks Marie, the speaker was either a bit nervous, or not used to interviewing on camera; it was a bit distracting, but overall the information was good.
I see people feel distracted by this woman, but I have seen this video more than once and that never crossed my mind. I found her engaging and that's it. Interesting to note that maybe different styles of communication suit different people.
Just listening without looking at the video I thought she sounded great and gave amazing info.
12:05 I respect her a lot but I find her eyes and smile combo very frightening
Oh my goodness, I played 12:05 again again when I saw your comment. The eyes with the claw fingers are so funny. Then the robotic hand gestures LOL
Simplicity and honesty :) They'll always get you further
My goodness your Hair is gorgeous Marie! You need to make a show about how you get your hair to look so healthy! :)
was purpose to semplify messages? well I am more confused than before eheh thanks.
I'm not surprised this is about communication, Marie is one of the few women on RUclips who didn't turn me off almost immediately due to over-exaggerating a false sense of annoying glee. Yeah yeah, some guys do it to, but not nearly as many.
I really wanted to be helped with this info but I found her to be too confusing, too unclear. She said points that should sound clear but actually they don't sink it, aren't accessible.
Loved this! And loved the input/advice/ ideas from the comments section. I’m glad to know that I’m not alone and that other competent people are looking for tips to improve. :)
Just what I needed to know today. Thank you so much.
“Those who want to learn, learn. A message is good to you when you’ve allowed it to effect you.” So for the people complaining I would either try watching the video first to listen and second time to take notes. And ask yourself questions.
Oooh, I hate to simply my language although I know I have to sometimes. It takes away some of the impact for me. Even if they "get it" in their own way, I feel I have to walk away knowing they only have 70% of the message. Like, people talk about winning, when trying to win is their problem. They actually want to succeed; move above the fight, not win and stay in the pit. To do that one needs to surrender not submit. The differences are tiny, but huge! I know I just lost everybody right now. = }
Thanks for being a great professor, Marie:-)
Fantastic! It helps me a lot to re launch my illustration career :)
#4 can really help me with my communication.
I really messed up my first job interview. I am still trying to get into that company. That video really discourages me since I already made mistakes.
Seeing every failure as a lesson learned will motivate you to success, not to discourage. Good luck!
Thank you for your program!
Really good advice here! Thanks ladies :)
Amazing ! Thank you for sharing❤️
I think her message was a bit light. I would have enjoyed more specific information. (IMHO) Marie I thought you were clearer than she. She needs to sit on those hands! It looks like she is strenuously restraining herself.
These women are both really great but I honestly feel like I learned more from Marie in this video! She's such a genius #wcw
I looove the interiors of Marie TV 😍
Reading all these comments whining about this beautiful AND successful lady * roll eyes * If you have nothing nice to say, just keep quiet. You don't like it, don't watch. So simple.
Amazing!!! Thank you so much!!!
Toastmasters! A great place to get feedback on your messaging and speaking!
I notice how Marie uses imitation listening. She uses more hand gestures in this video than usual because her guest is using them. but not nearly as much as this lady
I'm 1:47 in, what the hell is going on with her hands. I wish they were out of frame, it's quite distracting! Marie is a great communicator, but I don't think Rachel is strong in this setting
I agree!
I second. But what about her eyes? Whats going on there?
She is a passionate, upbeat person conveying direction through her body language.
Pineapple Hannah her hand gestures or fucking annoying
Whoa actually her hair is freaking me out! And i'm not even up to that part. She is hyper kinetic, hope the message is helpful though! Whoa she does a "Joker Face" tha'ts kindof creepy.
Spell names correctly is big big big one!
gosh..I was so looking fwd to the answer. She is confusing me with her body, her eyes, her weird mouth expressions and more importanly..(because, I scrolled away from the visual)...I have no idea what she is saying. I'm 7:59 minutes in. I LOVE your work Marie, any chance you could handle this YOURSELF in a Q&A? Would so appreciate the learning
I love this one too!
i love it so much Marie
As a teacher of a college elective these ideas are absolutely fantastic, thank you so much.
Jim Wedmore suggested that I visit your channel. I am impressed. --John
Love you so much, Marie ♡
I really appreciate this content. Fantastic. However, I am curious about her body language and her apparent over use of hand gestures, I found that really distracting, but apart from that, great info! Thank you.
Simplifying a message might include no longer starting virtually every single sentence with the word "So".
Her way of speaking is loathsome.
