Areas of Expertise

Content/Flow

What is your presentation trying to accomplish and does it do so? Is there a better way to make a point? Is it crisp, or does is meander and lose steam? The core of a great presentation is not cool images or video, it’s the content and the flow. Many slide decks are created by people so familiar with the content that they don’t realize it may be new to the audience, or the conclusion not so obvious. The core of our work is understanding what you are trying to accomplish, both overall and for each slide, dissecting the presentation, and making it truly persuasive.

Grammar and Style

Even a near-perfect slide deck can lose effectiveness if there are typos, poor grammar, inconsistent use of structure and headings, and a myriad of other stylistic and grammatical issues. Often, the presenting team is so close to the material that no one notices the errors – until the audience does. We carefully inspect every word of every slide to make sure no one in the audience finds an error. Different presentations have different styles and that’s fine. What’s not fine are mistakes and inconsistencies.

Look and Feel

We’re not graphics and user interface experts. We’re not going to create that perfect 3D illustration that exactly captures the point you are trying to make. However, we can clean up and refine some user interface items, make effective charts and graphs, and generally improve the appearance of your deck. We may make some suggestions that would require a professional illustrator or graphics expert to create.

Presentation

A poorly designed slide deck will ruin a presentation, but even a great deck will not save a poor presentation. We will listen to and record your presentation, and give you clear feedback on what works and what does not. This includes both “macro” areas like the volume of your voice and the pace of your presentation, as well as recommendations to improve your effectiveness in delivering each slide in your presentation.
