What We Do...

Classification Talk ---

Posted by Tom Gray on Oct 04, 2015

When introducing your guest speaker, here is a little information that will help with your personal introduction, i.e., your Classification Talk:

You were assigned a classification when you joined relating to your business & position. When you have the program of the day, it is your chance to tell members about yourself and your business. It shouldn't be a big chore because you should already know all the answers. Your talk should be brief before you introduce your program. Your personal story can be elaborate or short. To help you, some things you might want to include are:

Introduce yourself:

You live in (town)

Married or single

Spouse's name if applicable

Children and ages

Schools they attend

Spouse's business if applicable

Any famous children or do they do something special

Where you lived before. Where you grew up. Where you went to school

Where you met you spouse, if applicable Service?

Hobbies

Where you work now. Where you have worked before (optional)

What your business does or sells. How long you have been there. What you do for the company or position.

Any special items you sell or special services your company does

What makes your company special?

Business History: how long it’s been there

Any business travels to other countries or places. How often. With group, family, individually

This is your big chance to "advertise" your company to Rotary members. We do want to know where your company is and what it does. Normally, we do not "advertise" in meetings.

You do not have to answer all questions above; they are intended to give an idea of what to say if you need help getting started. It is only intended as a possible outline.

The talk is not mean to embarrass you, but to let us get to know you as you want us to.

You are not expected to "come off" as a professional speaker. Most of us are not.

If you have something special to show us, you can bring it in.
