2. Think about your main message, structure its supporting points, practice it and time it.
Don’t spend to much time rehearsing what your slides will finally be about, but do
endure long and hard thoughts about the topics in which your slides will include.
THINK BEFORE YOU START

3. Remember to remain consistent during your explanations.
Stay on task and keep a continuous flow of connections
running through your slides and don’t allow yourself to
detour off topic, talking about something else irrelevant.
STAY CONSISTENT

4. STATE YOUR MAIN MESSEGE
Remind yourself what it is you are trying to explain and demonstrate. You have an objective
and you have to ask yourself if you remember reaching that objective, making it clear why
the presentation is happening in the first place.

5. SMOOTH TRANSISTIONS
Don’t mistake a smooth transition from consistency. Sure it has to
relate to each other, but keep it like family, the same but they look
different. Your work all links together but it shouldn’t look exactly
the same, make your transitions from topic to topic as smooth as
possible but highlighting the difference in the subject matter and
you will keep your audience alert.

6. SAME TOPIC, CHANGE SUBJECT
Keep the information you are giving about the same topic, talking about the one
thing that your whole presentation is based on but change the subject within the
topic, keeping your audience intrigued, attentive and engaged with the changes
and differences within the topic you have chosen.

7. KEEP YOUR TYPOGRAPHY RELATED
You must keep your language and typography the same. If you have an informative
piece of text, you wouldn’t go off on a tangent using informal language so you must
make it all link. Keep your technique of arranging your type language legible, readable,
and appealing when displayed. Keep it neat, making sure your arrangement of type
involves selecting typefaces, point size, line length, line-spacing (leading), letter-
spacing (tracking), and adjusting the space within letters pairs.

8. REMEMBER,LESS IS MORE
One thing to avoid—slides with a lot of text, especially if it’s a repeat of
what you’re saying out loud. Remember not to overload your audience
with too much information as it makes it harder for them to
comprehend what it is you are trying to make. It’s like if you give a
paper handout in a meeting—everyone’s head goes down and they
read, rather than staying heads-up and listening. If there are a lot of
words on your slide, you’re asking your audience to split their attention
between what they’re reading and what they’re hearing.

9. KEEP AUDIENCE ATTENTIVE
Avoid giving hand-outs to your audience as it diverts your
audiences attention, making them lose focus on what you’re
saying. Keep them focused, intrigued and curious to what
your presentation is about and they will remember.

10. It is just the beginning and remember… the best is yet to come.
