Hi, everyone. Thanks for coming to this short presentation on our new product design. As you know, we've already redeveloped our 'Adventure' shampoo to make it more modern and appealing. And we've renamed it 'Adventure Tech'. Our market research established the target market as men in the 18–40 age range who like to be outdoors and also like technical gadgets, such as smartwatches, drones and things like that. We needed to create a bottle which appeals to that market.
So, today, I'm happy to unveil our new bottle design. As you can see, it's designed to look like a black metal drinking flask, with some digital features printed on it.
I'd like to talk you through the following three points: the key features, sizing and our timeline for production.
Firstly, you'll notice it has an ergonomic design. That means it fits smoothly into your hand and can be easily opened and squeezed using one hand. And, it looks like a flask you might use when hiking outdoors. The imitation digital displays are designed to remind the user of other tech devices they may have, such as a smartwatch or smart displays in their home.
I'd now like to tell you about the sizes. It comes in two sizes: the regular size and a small travel size. The travel size is the same type of design – a flask, also with imitation digital displays on the bottle. We were thinking of starting with one and following with the travel-size in a few months, but we've worked hard and both are ready now.
Finally, I'm going to talk to you about our timeline for production. You've probably heard that we're launching in two months. In preparation for that, we're starting the marketing campaign next month. You can see the complete overview of all phases in this Gantt chart.
In summary, the bottle's been designed for men who like adventure and technology, and it comes in two sizes. The marketing campaign is starting next month and we're launching the product in two months.
OK. So, any questions? Feel free to also email me for further information in case we run out of time.
The last time I gave a presentation was a few months ago. It was about the importance of moving in life, on the conference between different experts from marketing sphere. Everything was good except the light. It was a very sunny day, and a big window on the roof, so my presentation was almost impossible to see on the projector screen. But I do have nice improvisation skills, so I handled it perfectly.
The last time I gave a presentation at a conference of young scientists was a few months ago. It was a medical conference dedicated to the scientific dissertations of the speakers, where the speakers introduced the society to their research.
My last time I had to give a presentation was in my work with europenian team. This happened one months ago. I presented some medical devices to help doctors with patients which have hyperpigmentation. I presented some technics and protocols and the public was very exited of more lightly reducing this skin problem.
I remember my last presentation quite well. In fact, I probably lost about 5 kilograms because of stress during the preparation and the presentation itself.
I had always presented my thoughts in a more neutral environment, only for my colleagues at the workplace, except for my old university times, which were about 25 years ago.
And now, here we go: I am a student again, presenting my work and practical experience in front of professors, medical students, and others. It happened this May at the Shupyk National Healthcare University in Kyiv.
My presentation lasted 5–10 minutes, but it felt like a lifetime. I received overall good feedback afterward, as well as some constructive criticism on which I can work next time.
Overall, I would say I liked the experience, although it was quite stressful for me.
The last time I had to give a presentation was about a month ago. It was a training session on the updated processes at my company. I think it went quite well—the audience was engaged, and they had the opportunity to ask questions, which led to some good discussions.
The last time I gave a presentation was a week ago at the All-Ukrainian Congress of Surgeons, where I spoke about the clinical course and treatment of hyperthyroidism. I was nervous until the very end, since it was my first time preparing a report for an event of such a level. Everything went quite well, though there is still room for improvement.
I'm looking forward to that.
When I was invited to the Second International Energy Conference in Armenia 23 years ago, the conference chairman asked me if I had a presentation. I replied, "No, just listen." As I entered the hall, I saw a round table, and my name was among the representatives representing my country. Participants came from many countries, such as the USA, France, the UK, and others. There was a lot of attendees around the conference table whuch was in the middle. The Armenian Minister of Electricity opened the conference, and then the representatives of the countries were invited to speak. After the speakers had finished, I was shocked when the conference chairman invited me to speak. I stared at him, shocked because I had initially told him I had no words to say, just a listener (how embarrassing! I was talking to myself). Then he said, "Just say two words..." Meanwhile, the hall fell silent. The interpreter in the glass room was waiting for me to begin, and the audience was waiting. The representative of Bangladesh sitting next to me handed me the microphone. I very quietly picked up my bag, opened it quietly, and then picked up the summary report of my country's energy project and took a quick look at it. Then I started: Ladies and gentlemen, I began by explaining the project's definition of energy conservation, its objectives, and the savings it achieved. And at the end, I said, "That's all for now, thank you." A wave of applause swept the room. That's exactly what happened.
