Becoming a thought leader can be quite a task. Even when you think you just reached the top, there is always someone out there to push you back a few levels down. In fact, statistics tell us that the internet saw 2 million new blog posts in 2016 alone and this isn’t likely to change.
So, how do you deal with all the competition out there? Well, you need to start innovating and innovation isn’t always about coming up with new solutions. It’s about finding the perfect solution and in this case, re-purposing old resources can go a long way in establishing thought leadership.
Speaking of re-purposing old resources, one type of content that can be re-purposed to forward your goals is the classic slide presentation.
Think about it. Slide presentations are already quite impactful as far as information is concerned. Now, how can you turn it around and make the whole thing more “attention grabbing”? Well, how about narrating the content?
Wouldn’t that be effective? You could post it on your social media page and link it to your LinkedIn profile too. It would definitely generate the leads you’re looking for.
Adding Narration
Narration is a great way to add a voice to your brand image. Plus, it enhances the presentation without depending on an actual presenter.
Now, there are two ways you can go about it. You could narrate it yourself, which is fine if you’ve got the right skills and can engage listeners with the way you speak.
However, an untrained voice may not always have the intended effect. That’s when you need a professional touch. So, why not simply hire a professional voiceover artist?
The thing about narration is that it is an artistic performance like anything other artistic performance. Only a professional can deliver the expected results. Just listen to those advertisements on TV; don’t they sound different and unique? Well, with a professional voice artist, that’s exactly what you can have for your presentations.
Professional voiceover artists can breathe life into your content. In fact, there are artists that specifically work on subject matter such as explainer videos. Hiring someone from this kind of a background ensures that your presentation sounds as professional as possible.
Plus, the amount of effort and time needed to record a professional voiceover is significantly lesser than recording your own voice or one of your colleagues.
