You as the demonstrator MUST make a good first impression in order to sell yourself favorably to the audience.</div> <bR> <div> Therefore it is necessary to consider the following points carefully:</div> <bR> <div> 1.   Good Grooming</div> <div>    a. Wear a clean apron.</div> <div>    b. Hair should be tied back or use a chef's hat. </div> <div>    c. Hands should be washed.</div> <bR> <div> 2.   Use good posture-table should be high enough so you don't have to bend over.</div> <bR> <div> 3.   Voice should be pleasant-and loud enough to hear easily.</div> <bR> <div> 4.   Do not talk while moving around or handling noisy equipment.</div> <bR> <div> 5.   Be friendly. Be enthusiastic because it is contagious. Make the audience think you are having a wonderful time.</div> <bR> <div> 6.   Have good eye contact with the audience.</div> <bR> <div> <B>Common Faults to be Avoided When Talking:</B></div> <bR> <div> <IMG BORDER="0" SRC="Wing0a7300a700f000000000.png" HEIGHT="16" WIDTH="24" ALIGN="bottom" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0">Calling shots - "Now I am going to...", "Today I want to demonstrate..." The audience can see what is being done so it is not necessary to tell them what you will do - just do it. Use some means of transition-if you are using different kinds of yeast breads to show off an electric range find interesting ways of going from one bread to the next.</div> <bR> <div> <IMG BORDER="0" SRC="Wing0a7300a700f000000000.png" HEIGHT="16" WIDTH="24" ALIGN="bottom" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0">Make the food the subject of the sentence rather than "I" and the shot calling is avoided.  "The yeast is added to the water to soften",<B> NOT</B>, "Now I am going to add the yeast to the water.</div> <bR> <div> <B><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="Wing0a7300a700f000000000.png" HEIGHT="16" WIDTH="24" ALIGN="bottom" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0">DO NOT be possessive</B>. Use of the words "your, my, mine, our," can cause embarrassing situation. The following examples will help to prove the point. "Your lamb kidneys", "Your shiny, copper bottom". Concentrate on "The" instead of the possessive pronoun and you will avoid many bad moments.</div> <bR> <div> <B>Download a copy of the </B><A HREF="Demonstration Techniques.doc" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Demonstration Techniques.doc"><U><B>Demonstration Techniques</B></U></A><B>   </B></div> </td> </tr></table></body>
