How many “interesting things” should you do?

20th April 2021

Two challenges:

  1. You want your comms to be interesting
  2. You don’t want to spend ages making them interesting

So how many interesting things should you include?

The answer is simple:

       MORE THAN NONE!

After all, if you don’t have “more than no” interesting things, it’s all boring.

And by “interesting thing”, I just mean things people find interesting:

  • Ask a question
  • Tell a joke
  • Share a real-life story
  • Use an analogy
  • Give them a quiz
  • Use an interesting stat
  • Etc

Lists like this can look daunting.

Until you realise you just need to use “more than none” of them.

And that sounds pretty easy!

Action Point
