The best way to deal with jitters during a sales presentation is subjective and depends on the individual. However, some common techniques that may work for some individuals include deep breathing exercises, positive affirmations, visualization techniques, and practicing the presentation beforehand. Avoiding the use of visuals or stress management techniques may hinder the effectiveness of the presentation. It is also important to remember that even professional salespeople can get nervous and it is normal to feel this way. Apologizing for being nervous may draw attention to it and make the situation more uncomfortable for both the buyer and the seller.
