"A business that makes nothing but money is a poor business". – Henry Ford
Do you want to create a really good presentation? Here are the most important tips!
Presentations are a very good way of communicating information. Nowadays with technology growth, we can use a bunch of multimedia software, digital techniques and other sorts of the newly made inventions that will keep your performance in your listeners' heads for a long time. Below I share the most important advice that results from my experience and which will allow you to prepare a great presentation:
1. Remove text
To make a good presentation one has to understand one thing first.
A good presentation is used to illustrate what you are talking about and communicate what cannot be easily conveyed in words. People from further rows will not be able to read the text anyway. In addition, the text will distract you from what you say.
2. Add visualizations
Mouse visualizations will make your video presentation even more attractive. Don't forget to add video, short gifs and other movable elements that keep the viewer's attention.
3. Increase the font
Since there is a text in the presentation that cannot be removed, it has to be enlarged. You will make life easier for those who are sitting further. The minimum font size is 29.
4. Add title slide
You can display it on the wall before you start so that everyone knows what you're about to tell in the next X hours.
5. Add table of contents
Put on it information about the chapters that the presentation contains
6. Add slide numbers
Thanks to this you will know at which point in the presentation you are and you will know how much time you are left to finish the performance.
7. Add annotations
If at some point in the presentation you have something to mention, add annotation, for example, "question", "example" or "discussion". This way you will not forget about it during the presentation.
8. Add examples from daily life
Always try to add a story if possible. People like to listen to others' experience. It will make your presentation more entertaining.
9. Add the final slide
Very often presenters forget about adding the final slide. There must be a thank you note for it. After all, someone has spent some time to listen to you.
10. Add a summary slide
After discussing a number of specific issues, it is a good idea to take a moment to discuss the conclusions.
And last but not least, use a good presentation software that will help you to create interesting and entertaining video presentation for your viewers.
