Personalized PowerPoint Slides

Are you looking for a way to personalize your PowerPoint slides to make your audience understand that you appreciate and understand them better? Here’s one simple, quick technique:

Cut and paste your prospect’s or client’s logo from their website and place it on the cover page of your PowerPoint. By having your client’s or prospect’s logo on the front page you are displaying a small gesture that you care about them. If nothing else, your audience knows you are not giving them a presentation that is 100% the same as you gave yesterday or the day before.

Dale Carnegie wrote many decades ago that nothing is sweeter to the human ear than the sound of one’s own name. Similarly, companies like to see their own name in big lights.

Putting a corporate image on the front page of your PowerPoint shouldn’t take you or your assistant more than about 60 seconds to do—it’s not a hard task to copy and paste. But it will be time well spent.

Make PowerPoint Text Stand Out

But somewhere along the way, your eyes glaze over and drool begins to pool in the corner of your mouth. And now it’s your turn to create a PowerPoint....
