Dear Reader,
In the last two decades, Apple has gained huge popularity and market share in several countries.
In fact, in 2018, Apple became the world’s first company to reach a trillion-dollar market cap.
All over the world people are crazy about Apple’s products no matter how expensive they are. They get excited whenever Apple launches a new product.
It was Steve Jobs, the co-founder of Apple, who launched many of Apple products himself. For example, iPod, iPhone, iPad.
We all remember Steve Jobs as a great entrepreneur… a great business leader… a great tech visionary.
His contribution in transforming a small startup to one of the world’s top companies was simply outstanding.
However, Steve Jobs was also a great salesman. His product launching presentations are considered some of the best sales pitches of all time.
It was Steve Jobs’s passion, enthusiasm, and love for his revolutionary products that made him a super presenter.
Here are some of his presentation quotes which clearly show how enthusiastic Steve Jobs was about his products:
“Introducing three revolutionary products”
“World’s thinnest notebook”
“1,000 sounds in your pocket”
“Reinvent the phone”
“Think different”
“Macintosh changed the whole computer industry”
“iPod changed the entire music industry”
Two lessons that we can learn about salesmanship from Steve Jobs’s presentations:
First, always sell a product you are excited about.
Second, even if you’re selling great ideas, products, concepts… the difference lies in the presentation.
An idea is powerless if you don’t know how to present it.
So, if you want to sell your ideas to customers, investors, management, employees, family, and friends you need to master your presentation skills.
