Prompt 1
Developing a credible persona for individuals is important, especially if you want to be taken serious! There are many similarities, for example, to develop credible persona you must keep it professional and always do your research at all times. When you are online, your audience is not in your face, so you would have to make sure your message is just as clear online is it would be spoken. When developing a credible persona online, using social media would be quite a helpful idea! Social media is very popular today, and there are many professionals and celebrities that are on social media.
When developing credible persona in person, it can be a little more difficult for those who are not good with public speaking. You have to be prepared for the questions that the audience ask. Communicating with your audience is a good thing, it keeps the audience engaged in the conversation, which is being very professional. Keeping you professional manner is always important no matter what happens. You have to be professionally dressed, and do not show that you are nervous. Individuals must be confident and speak facts by doing your research thoroughly, and keep the audience attention. Individuals that keep the audience’s attention, staying professional, and stating facts that would keep the listener listening can boost your credibility.

Prompt 2
Credibility is something that words alone can hardly personify. Credibility has to come from a familiar source, or a source that is different from yourself. To show one has credibility, often you would need an example or a vetting from another credible source. If you dont a source to vouch for you, then there is no substitute for time and honesty.
The amount of honest time you put into someone or something while staying consistent in your values and morals will help you build credibility. People tend to make judgements about you over time. They will see trends on what you say and what you do. If you keep giving people good, credible moments then their overall opinion about your persona will be “This person is very credible”
Now with presentations, you have to build credibility fast. The most efficient way to build that credibility during a short period (like a presentation) would be to base your words on fact. Having factual evidence about the words you are speaking will only add to your credibility. Keeping a humble, but firm tone will all but solidify that thinking.
