How To Make A Business Presentation
By: Alexandra Consolino
Avoid Information Overload
When the audience is given too much information, it can be hard for them to remember. Take out anything that's additional and just give them the facts.
Practice Delivery
Practice the way you are going to give your presentation over and over until you feel comfortable. Also, be sure not to do anything distracting with your body movement.
Pick Powerful Props
A few small and simple props can be memorable for your audience to remember the points you made about the prop.
Minimize You
The audience doesn't care as much about you as they care about what you can offer them.
Speak the Language
Don't use terms the audience doesn't understand. To be on the safe side, always explain terms and acronyms.
Simple Slides
Don't be like everyone else, use slides in your presentation to highlight and emphasize key points.
Dig Deep
Find a relevant fact beyond the typical one. Give your audience the unexpected which will start discussion.
Avoid Fancy Fonts
Make sure the audience is able to read your presentation.
Entertain the Audience
Make sure the audience isn't falling asleep because of boredom. Make them excited to hear what you have to say.
Use Photos, Charts, and Graphs
Combining these three elements will heighten the audience's interest in your presentation.
