Characteristics of General Audience

• Listening is much more difficult than reading
• "Listeners" listen somewhere between 25 and 50
  of the time
• Information must be taken in "on the fly" with no
  backtracking
• Short-term memory holds only 5 to 7 points
• People remember only 10 of what they hear versus
  50 of what they read
• If your audience listens only part of the time
  and remembers only 10 of what they hear, then
  your "window" of communication is around 2.5 - 5
  of your total presentation time!
