Chapters 9-12 of your textbook discuss informative and persuasive presentations. For this assignment, you will be putting together a persuasive presentation with the goal of persuading your audience to buy a product.
You will need to do the following:
1. Select a specific product that is sold on the internet. You need to choose a specific product with a page that you can provide a link to.
2. Follow the steps in chapter 9 of your textbook to prepare and organize a presentation. Your goal is to persuade your audience to purchase your product.
3. At least one visual aid is required for this presentation.
4. You must do research for this presentation and must have at least three CREDIBLE sources.
5. The time frame for this presentation is 2-4 minutes.
Note that as part of your preparation, you should analyze your audience and their needs. I want you to assume that your audience members’ demographic information is similar to your own. Thus your audience’s age(20s, educational background(Pursuing Bachelor) , socioeconomic status, marital/family status(Single/One Parent), and income(27,000-35,000) is similar to your own. This means choose a product that would appeal to you, and prepare an argument that would appeal to you.
