Presentation for school on IM. Need Help with Topic!

For my honors literature class, we can make a presentation on anything, as long as it is 5-6 minutes. I want to do it on some type of IM (i.e. SEO, ORM, etc) that is interesting, and can be explained relatively well within the time span. I would be making a PPT to go along with it.

Would love to hear any and all ideas from you; thanks guys.

Might I recommend introducing Mrs. Hall's 9th grade Honors Literature to adult CPA programs and google bowling?

Tell them how they can make money online. ALOT of people just don't know or believe, share a success story or show the amount of money someone made online.

why you should avoid building porn links

First start with the definition of what IM is "Internet Marketing" then outline the basic ways of making money i.e. a website + ads next list the types of ads that are available to marketers and lastly delve into the importance of traffic in IM. Finally conclude with a list of the top 10 IM marketers all of whom by the way are rich.

I will talk about a specific method found in making money section...

Thanks for the suggestions guys; I think I'll do something about ORM, lol I got one suggestion to explain ewhoring using POF. haha

do a presentation on ewhoring. a live session in the classroom.

Talk about spamming competitors with porn links

Discuss a basic topic everyone that doesn't know anything about IM would be interested in, which I think excludes IM. IM is M with an "I", and M isn't that interesting, and IM isn't either. But everyone uses Google. You haven't enough time to even scratch the surface with IM anyways. "Uh, internet marketing is doing a bunch of marketing stuff on the internet. Any questions?"

Define the word "relevance", "algorithm", etc... and what it means to average people.
I have difficulty getting people to understand what a backlink is.

yes...this will be alright! Just write any one good topic from MMO section...and you are good to go =)

You might need more than 5 minutes.

Start high level with definitions of IM, SEO, SERPs, basic ad types. Working with google services like adsense might make the most sense for poeple because everyone in the class knows what google is...

You could also talk about how google knows or is trying to know everything you do online and is tailoring the ads each individual sees on the serp and within the visited web pages too. I saw a youtube video about 6 months ago that was a dig on google on how it is tying it all together and the video is made to make google look evil. I wish I had the link for you.

Pretend that you are talking to a fresh Grade 10 student who is wide eyed and has no idea what you are talking about. It has to be explained in lamens terms. if you know what I mean. relate the terms of IM to other businesses that are more brick and mortar and branding. marketing is marketing.

Talking about the top 10 IMers is ok, but that is like talking about Richard Branson and Virgin to someone who is deaf. They will have no idea who you are talking about.

I like the idea of talking about your own successes, even samples of sites, actual checks you have received ( or the stub, because you probably cashed it ), or even showing some shots of your current online earnings.... then showing how and where they come from.

In the end... i will bet you will have a few new friends wanting to learn from you. You'll get a new IM apprentice



my 2 cents is free.

start off by saying you'll teach everyone in the room how to make $300 in 5 minutes. but first, everyone has to fill out a quick online survey.

then tell them what you just did there.

5-6 minutes is just too short to explain anything in details, if i were you, i'd tell them about IM & social networking, because most of the people have personal insight in social networks already, so it can be interesting for those who don't know anything about IM rather than if you'd talk them about SEO

maybe make a presentation about pinterest, it's pretty hot now

I second the spamming competitors with pornsites!

you can talk about fb or twitter or pinterest....and how you promote your products or affiliate stuff on these sites....

Tell them u got ur new iPad for free and they can too ...

yeah, but you might want to say that at then end, just as a bonus for listening to you.
and also you can add, that they need to spread the word around to at least 5 of their friends, and then to their peers and so on, and so on ..

spend 5 minutes talking about ewhoring guys for money.
