PowerPoint Tips

PowerPoint is very useful tool when presenting information, but if the presentation is poorly structured and designed, the presentation may not be received very well by your audience. Here are some tips for a good presentation:
1) Keep your presentation simple. Too much text in slides can confuse the audience give focus to a non focal subject.
2) Use appropriate colors. If the subject is business related then avoid using bright, loud colors. Stick to a color theme, bouncing around from color to color is not ideal.
3) Use appropriate fonts. It is very annoying when reading material in an awkward font, the audience may be put off by this.
4) Use graphics and animations. The audience can get bored with only reading, adding pictures provides visual aid and a break from reading.
5) Try to avoid using too many animations. Waiting for a slide to fade in can get bothersome.
