Kyle delivers a presentation to a bunch of management students. During his session, he poses questions out loud to improve participation and gather input. Unfortunately, these types of questions don’t always give you the best results. You get stock answers, or many students sit silently because they are afraid to speak in front of others. Poor Kyle has a difficult time figuring out where he went wrong.

Let’s face it, we don’t mean it when we say, “I do not need a rating” or “what my viewers think is none of my business”. In reality we are concerned about our audiences’ opinion. So how do we bridge this gap?

Introducing audience polling for Zoho ShowTime.

ShowTime’s polls help you understand your audience’s point of view by asking them questions at regular intervals so they stay focused during your presentation. With polls, the speaker will now receive genuine and honest answers. You can create a poll in a snap and get responses to display on the large screen in real-time.
