[13]

content and design for a new
[17]
presentation can be a tough task between
[20]
outlining designing and finalizing the
[22]
details it's not uncommon for a few
[24]
questions to pop up where's the best
[26]
place to start are some steps better to
[28]
take before others how can you make sure
[31]
you aren't missing anything and how on
[33]
earth do you master those essential
[34]
design tricks that can take a
[35]
presentation from good to great we're
[38]
here to make the process a little easier
[40]
for you with the following tips you'll
[42]
be able to navigate PowerPoint like a
[43]
pro the first step is outlining your
[46]
content first decide on working title
[49]
and the main takeaways a working title
[51]
is more specific than a topic think how
[54]
the right nutrition can strengthen your
[55]
kids bones instead of raising healthy
[57]
kids once you've got your working title
[59]
make a list of the main takeaways of
[60]
your presentation to begin giving it
[63]
some structure while you outline it's
[65]
important to keep your specific audience
[66]
in mind ask yourself what do your
[69]
audience members already know what new
[71]
information can you teach them what are
[73]
they expecting from your presentation
[74]
what's going to be interesting to them
[76]
what will keep them focused and engaged
[79]
next formulate your content as a
[81]
narrative if possible this may not apply
[83]
for more formal presentations that have
[85]
rigid structures like performance
[87]
reports but for presentations that have
[89]
more flexibility presenting your content
[91]
as a narrative can be much more
[92]
compelling stories appealed people's
[94]
emotional side in ways that information
[96]
facts and figures can't they help you
[98]
relate to your audience
[99]
and in turn they'll make you and your
[101]
message far more interesting for your
[103]
audience
[103]
next collect relevant data and examples
[106]
to boost your contents credibility while
[108]
big statements can help you set the
[109]
stage supporting those statements with
[111]
evidence will make your argument more
[112]
interesting and credible but don't just
[115]
slap random stats on your slide and
[116]
expect to wow your audience be sure your
[119]
data comes from a reputable source and
[121]
that you're presenting it in a way
[122]
that's easy to understand like through
[124]
accurate charts and graphs now it's time
[127]
to focus on outlining your powerpoint
[128]
design
[129]
pick a color scheme whether you decide
[131]
to use two three or four different
[133]
colors in your presentation is up to you
[135]
but certain color combinations go
[137]
together better than others pick colors
[139]
that support the tone of your content
[141]
solve for legibility and don't distract
[143]
from what you have to say next design
[146]
your slide backgrounds in PowerPoint
[148]
less is more you don't ever want to let
[151]
the design distract from your message
[152]
but at the same time you want to get
[154]
more creative than a plain white
[156]
background even if you're going for a
[158]
very simple design PowerPoint has
[160]
pre-designed templates available that
[161]
you can use as a starting point to
[163]
browse these templates on a Mac click on
[165]
the slide or slides you want to add the
[166]
template to then click the design tab at
[169]
the top of the screen to browse these
[171]
templates on a PC click on the slide or
[173]
slides you want to add the template to
[174]
then click the design tab at the top of
[176]
the screen in the background group click
[178]
the arrow next to the background styles
[180]
to open up the theme gallery you can use
[182]
one of these pre-made templates as a
[184]
base to customize and add your own
[186]
creative spin next it's time to format
[188]
your content for maximum impact most
[191]
basic design work is done and it's time
[193]
to start filling in the information on
[194]
your slides based on the text outline
[196]
you created earlier first create a
[198]
skeleton of how your slides will flow by
[200]
adding a title slide all your header
[202]
slides and maybe a few supporting slides
[204]
in between these slides shouldn't be
[206]
complex just titles and headers a few
[208]
tidbits of information some details you
[211]
want to remember down the road and only
[213]
the one or two images you're positive
[214]
you want to use you'll add more slides
[216]
and fill in the rest of the information
[218]
and images later I promise you should
[220]
start with a strong opening whether you
[223]
like it or not your audience is going to
[224]
make value judgments about you your
[226]
organization and your message within the
[228]
first minute of your presentation want
[230]
to ensure you start your presentation
[231]
with a bang the folks at the London
[233]
speaking Bureau suggest beginning with a
[235]
dramatic sharp opening like a
[237]
challenging question or poll for example
[240]
you might say everybody close your eyes
[241]
now raise your hand if you've ever been
[243]
rude to someone you might also use a
[245]
powerful statistic or a personal story
[247]
that your specific audience can relate
[248]
to however you choose to begin be sure
[251]
it engages your audience immediately
[252]
both intellectually and emotionally now
[255]
fill in the text on your slides using
[257]
concise language your slides are there
[259]
to support the speaking components of
[260]
your present
[261]
and not replace it if your slides
[262]
contain too much information like full
[264]
sentences or paragraphs and your
[266]
audience members won't be able to help
[267]
but read the slides instead of listening
[269]
to you plus that's boring
[271]
instead use slides to enhance key words
[273]
and show visuals while you stand up
[275]
there and do with the real work telling
[277]
a story and describing your data when it
[279]
comes to your slide text focus on the
[281]
main phrases of a bullet point and cover
[282]
the details verbally finally you should
[284]
end with a strong take-home message a
[286]
lot of people get lazy with the end of
[288]
their presentations but you want to end
[290]
with a bang just like you started with
[291]
one leave your audience with something
[293]
they'll remember something that'll make
[294]
them think and maybe even mobilize want
[297]
to make your presentations even stronger
