By knowing your audience, “you can anticipate their reactions to your speech” (10). If you were to procrastinate, “the lack of thorough preparation often results in a poorer speech performance, which reinforces a speaker’s perception that public speaking is difficult” (Beebe 10). When you are prepared you will be able to show “…that you have researched your topic, developed a logically coherent outline, and practiced your speech…” (Beebe 11).
