Follow these rules to immediately improve your presentation.
- Make slides that reinforce your words not repeat them.
- Create slides that demonstrate, with emotional proof, that what you’re saying is true, not just accurate.
- No more than six words on a slide. EVER.
- Don’t use cheesy images, use proper stock images.
- No dissolves, spins, or other transitions. Keep it simple.
- Surprise them – Put up a slide that triggers an emotional reaction in the audience. Let them sit up and want to know what you’re going to say that fits in with that image.
