Below are just a few of the many topics that Michael Aun has in his existing format. Please select the areas of interest to your organization and we will send you either a copy of his handout or the actual outline.


VISUAL EXTRAVAGANZA


This unique and optional service features something that only Michael Aun can do for your audience. He takes pictures of members of your audience, develops them instantly into slides and then utilizes them just minutes later in his presentation in the form of smiling-faces-closing. Michael had a spectacular song written titled "The Winner Is You," which he uses to present the photos on a giant silver screen. Michael owns the music so you need not worry about licensing.


Electronic High Tech Introduction


Michael utilizes a special "high tech" electronic introduction, which features fast moving music and a professional Nashville voice over who introduces Michael to your audience with a powerful, one-minute introduction which features 140 visuals that appear in rapid-fire fashion. This sets the stage for Michael's fast moving program, which features hundreds of visuals, props and other materials.


Show-And-Tell Speaking


Michael believes in the "Show-And-Tell" process of keynoting a program. He utilizes hundreds of visuals, props, and other tools to mix his message with humor and great "take home" information that can be plugged in immediately. If the idea shared can't be used the same day, perhaps it's too complicated and should not be used at all. Michael knows if he just speaks to your people, they might retain 10% of what he has to say. If they see it and hear it, retention will jump to 60% or more. If they see it, hear it and take home a handout, retention is now at 85% or more.


Tailored Handouts


Michael will "customerize" a handout for your people, utilizing your logos and theme artwork for the meeting, should you desire. Our newest form of handouts actually duplicates what appears on the screen, allowing the meeting participants to make notes in the margin.


Master Audiocassette Tape


Michael will "cu Because over 75% of Michael's business is repeat, he makes it a point to audio record every presentation so that he doesn't duplicate the material when he returns to the same group. As a special additional benefit to the meeting planner, Michael will provide an audiocassette master tape for the planner, at no additional charge.


This tape will be sent within 45 days of the program, as it has to be custom-designed with the name and address of the group. Additional copies may be ordered at a nominal cost. The client is welcome to duplicate copies for the attendees as well. Michael Aun does not expect to receive a royalty on this.


Visual Newspaper, Visual Roast
and Visual Extravaganza Production


Michael is often asked to produce shows utilizing his special affect photography. Some groups utilize his services during their entire convention, having him produce visuals of each day's events and showing them as part of his "Visual Extravaganza."


Another form of this service is called "Visual Roast" where Michael and others in your organization roast high profile audience members.


"Visual Newspaper" is a recap of all the previous day's events in pictures accompanied by humorous comments by Michael and other members of your group. When Michael is done with your visuals, he provides them to the meeting planner for further use.
