4. Quoting someone, e.g. According to marketing guru Philip Kotler, there are five key processes in marketing.

5. Emphasising key words, e.g. What is unseen is the extensive market research and development of products, …

But what is marketing?

But a company that fails at any one of these processes will not survive.

Marketers are pushing the same old buttons to sell more variations of the same old products.

And that’s what I’d like you to do for your next assignment: innovate.

Think about a product that will make your life easier.

6. Building rapport with the audience, e.g. So, you know, ‘Houston, we have an innovation problem’. (using humour and informal language)

Clearly, we’ve got to do something different here. (involving the audience)

Oh, sorry, folks, but that’s all we have time for today. (informal)

3. Asking ‘real’ or rhetorical questions, e.g. Have you seen this coat? (It could be either here.)

Well, of course, she gave me a list …

I bet you didn’t know that, did you?

That’s a huge increase in growth, isn’t it? (using informal language and question tags to invite the audience to agree with him)

But if you can’t beat them, join them! (using humour)
