If you’re meeting with a potential client or introducing a new idea to your team, a powerful presentation can be the key to success. If you’re working on an important slideshow, sharp graphics, great design, and the help of a multi-function device can bring your meeting materials to the next level. Below are a few tips for making your presentation as effective as possible.

How to Create a Powerful Presentation

1. Focus on the Needs of Your Audience

When preparing marketing materials, many people focus on elements they’re proudest of. However, creating a strong impression means concentrating on those that matter most to your audience. 

Understanding whether your audience is more concerned about cost savings or using advanced technological methods will help you create a presentation that grabs their attention.

2. Focus on a Core Message

You might be tempted to include as much information as possible, but this can leave your presentation cluttered. Staying focused on a single, easily memorable message will make the presentation more concise and powerful. 

Your audience will be much more receptive to a presentation with concise points that pertain to their needs.

3. Remember the 10-20-30 Rule

If your presentation includes a slideshow, follow the 10-20-30 rule. This means your slideshow should consist of no more than 10 slides and last no more than 20 minutes. All the fonts should also be 30 pts or larger for maximum visibility.

4. Use Digital Whiteboards

Digital whiteboards can help your team craft a winning presentation, even if you’re working remotely. These multi-function devices have sensitive touch-screen technology that allows multiple users to write on the board at the same time. All of your notes and plans can be saved automatically so you’ll never lose track of a great idea.
