- Plan your PowerPoint production ahead of the night before you present, the less you plan ahead, the more pain ahead
- Start with a good looking and functioning PowerPoint template. It makes the production more efficient with better results
- Begin developing your content from the view of your audience and results you want – what do they want to see and hear? Details or summaries?
- If you’re not a graphic artist – call one. PowerPoint is easy to use, but it can’t make you an instant designer.
- Keep it simple and short with more visuals than just text. Humans are visual animals.
- If you are presenting live, be sure your technology works well before the meeting (check laptop with projector, and audio in the room)
- Practice. Practice. Practice. Present.
