Exorbitant amount of umms and ahs—practice (chair fly) your brief! Get a buddy to watch and
critique you.
Shuffling and pounding your feet—you would be surprised how many people did this. It is
really loud and distracting.
Do not wear your jacket. It is a formal brief. Wear service dress, long sleeve and tie, or even
short sleeve…but NOT a jacket.
Do not chew gum!
Do not look at your watch several times throughout brief—have a buddy out in the crowd that
signals time.
Do not use notecards—this is not high school anymore Toto.
