Subject: Presentation Advice //

Thanks very much for meeting with me earlier today /

about our upcoming presentation. //

I certainly do appreciate your advice. //

Even though I have no shortage of confidence in the content of my material, /

this is, as you know, my first appearance before the board of directors. //

So it means a lot to me / to be able to adjust my style and presentation /

in keeping with your knowledge and experience in this area. //

I think I’m all ready to go, / except for one nagging uncertainty. //

This may sound like a small matter, / but sometimes details are important. //

The meeting room isn’t really all that big. //

But it does have an audio system. //

Given your impression of my speaking voice, /

and the preferences of the board members, /

would you advise using the microphone and speakers? //

Conversely, / simply relying on my voice alone /

might make a better impression. //

What are your thoughts? //

I would appreciate it if you could give me some quick feedback. //

Sincerely, / Natalie T. //
