“To be early is to be on time, to be on time is to be in late, and to be late is to be in trouble”. For those of my students who followed the “late” timing, they quickly found that late night running solved their problems. I also “left: my fair share of chaperones at the hotel for not being ready to leave. Sounds harsh? Maybe--- but, it does teach us lessons that can be moved into the presentation arena.
As a presenter, being early to a presentation is a “win-win” scenario for both you as the presenter and the audience. The following is a listing and explanations of the benefits of being early to a presentation.
Benefits for presenter:
- You can check out the layout of the venue--- sometimes the chair/table layout of the room may not be what you desire
- You get a chance to check the lighting of the room--- the room itself may not reach the “specs” that were sent to you. Instead of adjustable lighting, your room may have fluorescent lights only.
- The audience “goodies” may not be in place--- your audience will always appreciate water at the back of the room. You may even want to provide mints or hard candies of some type.
- Set the room temperature. It will take time for the room temperature to adjust. You don’t want a room where you can hang meat or feel that you’ve just gotten into a tanning bed.
- Focus on technology. If anything can go wrong, it will be technology. Does the slide show run, can the audience see the screen, does the projector work, is the microphone enough or too much for the room. This is the time where you test all of the elements. Run your presentation with the technology to find any potential glitches

Having spent some years using various forms of accomodation on my travels with my family, I have noticed that the places that supply microwave ovens for their guests appear to have hit upon a popular crowd pleaser. Microwaves are not the reason that guests come to your guest house but they can be a good marketing ploy for people with families.1; It was when my wife and I had kids that we really noticed that a place with a microwave was a distinct advantage.

The leveraging method I’m about to share with you is more indirect than most sales activities and can be difficult to quantify or even track. In this case tracking and quantification will rely on your conscientiously asking callers how they came to be contacting you, or setting up tracking mechanisms on your web site to track and measure conversions.This method involves using information products, either distributed by you, or together with a strategic allian
Benefits for Audience:
- The audience will have a better chance in seeing a successful presentation. Audience Advocacy contains important concepts… design/deliver the presentation in the way you as an audience member would appreciate participating. “Prior preparation prevents poor performance”. Make each presentation successful for the presenter and the audience.
- You’ll be able to “bond” with your audience as they enter the room. This interaction and “getting to know the audience” will help create a positive rapport between the presenter and the audience.
To interject a “personal” learning moment about being early to a presentation site as a presenter… I recently presented at the ASCD (Association of Superintendents and Curriculum Developers) convention in Anaheim, CA. Prior to the convention, we were to send in out requests for equipment for the room. Due to changes in airline carry-ons, I opted to rent a projector at the convention site (first mistake). When I got to the room, there was no LCD projector but an overhead projector instead. By arriving early, I had an hour and a half to find an LCD projector and have it sent to the room. From that point, I went into normal preparation mode. Moral of the story--- if I hadn’t arrived early, the presentation would have still been delivered, but without the PowerPoint support materials. To this end, I’m a firm believer in living the mantra…
“To be early is to be on time, to be on time is to be in late, and to be late is to be in trouble”. I suggest you incorporate this into your “presentation lifestyle” as well.
