Enjoy these awesome presentation, learn and get inspired...

1) Tweak Your Slides: Ten Design Principles for Educators (Version 3.0)

Learners often "buy e-learning" with their eyes and if they don't find it attractive it won't motivate them to learn. Good news is that by following some simple and practical design principles your eLearning screens can look great. Designing your material, then, has a lot to do with sticking to the essentials and arranging them properly.   We personally love how actionable tips are provided in this presentation. 

2) 5 Reasons Typography is Powerful

Everybody knows that typography can be incredibly powerful. It can change the entire look and feel of your eLearning courses. It's use will set the mood and tone of your material. 

What is the typography you’re using saying about your course? This presentation has some awesome takeaways about how to use some of the basic principles of typography not only to achieve readability but also to bring interest. Remember to call upon the 5 points when designing your eLearning courses. 

3) 16 eLearning Quotes to Inspire You

For many, the simplest ideas in the form of a short quote can help them think more clearly. That's why we've curated a list of what we think are some of the best eLearning or education quotes. You'll find thoughts from people like Elliot Massie, Dr. Michael Allen, to historical figures like Henry Ford. 

We hope you get the dosis of inspiration from these famous eLearning industry professionals: 

4) Brain Rules for Presenters

The brain is our primary tool for learning. It's seat of thought, memory,  consciousness and emotion. So it only makes sense to explore it before attempting to design our eLearning courses. By understanding how the learner’s brain functions, course developers are better able to create material that works with the brain and not contradict it. 

In 131 slides, Garr Reynols breaks down what he believes are the main takeaways and quotes from the book " Brain Rules: 12 Principles for Surviving and Thriving at Work, Home, and School " . This is a must-see  presentation of how to do a brain-friendly, learning-maximised presentation or eLearning course.

5) Great Presentations Are Like Ads

Getting learners to focus on your material is difficult. Efficient course developers make focusing with the material easier by making it fun, attractive and engaging. Much like advertisements, effective eLearning designs manage to grab the learner's attention while piquing their curiosity for more information. 

Just putting words on a screen sucks! Learners get easily bored when you bombard them with numbers, heavy paragraphs, and too much factual information. Avoid this by getting more creative and experimental. Apply the 3 R's of advertising to eLearning!

6) 5 Killer Ways to Open Up Your Next Presentation

Great beginnings of the best novels or TV series or whatnot never fail at making people curious. By working on a great course introduction, you’re tapping people’s innate capability of curiosity and giving them an opportunity to learn something new.  Begin with a story, an offer, or an interesting fact as if you are meeting someone for the first time. If your opening slides are good, learners will happily read your introductory material.

Without doubt, s uccessful eLearning courses that people complete from start to finish share one crucial element: a solid introduction. Below are some indispensable tips to creating one.

7) Introduction to Slide Design: 7 Rules for Creating Effective Slides

Design is too often overlooked by course developers, or otherwise misunderstood – some eLearning designers think that as long as their course "looks good," it's enough. But design affects the way a learner takes in information, so giving a bit more thought to the visual layout of the screens of your course is an important part of eLearning best practices. Follow these simple rules and see the difference they make.

8) How To Use Colors Wisely

"Color Matters. It always has, and it always will." Every shade and stroke of color, or the lack of it, creates its own message. Colors  are powerful in that they elicit emotions, latent ones included. That means that too many colors can overwhelm the learner, making it hard to focus on the course material.  So choosing them wisely can effectively deliver the emotional reaction you expect from your audience.  

This Slideshare presentation gives us three valuable tips on how to use colors effectively in your presentations or eLearning courses: 

9) 20 Eye-Opening Stats You Probably Didn't Know About Mobile Learning

Still not sure about implementing Mobile Learning? Consider these eye-opening statistics published by different organizations such as ASTD, iPass, Towards Maturity and Ambient Insight. Data from their most recent surveys reveal some interesting facts that you might be interested in. 

SHIFT collected these facts about mobile learning to make the case for why everyone needs to take notice of the power of mobile in the learning industry.

10) Design for Usability

Jakob Nielsen defines usability as a "quality attribute that assesses how easy user interfaces are to use." Basically, its a necessary condition for survival. If your eLearning course or web site is difficult to use, people leave. Is that simple.

A course that provides learners with the right content it’s useful, but if it takes a lot of effort and thinking to actually find the content doesn't work.  It should be too obvious where to click, how to search and how to navigate so that users won’t waste time and get impatient. Definitely take a second to flip through the presentation, as you'll learn a great lesson.

Speaking about Presenting

The Top 10 PowerPoint slides from Slideshare

by Olivia Mitchell | 2 comments

slideshare presentation examples

Slidesharing sites like Slideshare and Slideboom are a great place to get inspiration on PowerPoint slide design. You can see different ideas and adapt them for your own presentations. Slideshare is currently running the World’s Best Presentation Contest (see footnote) which has some great examples of PowerPoint slide design. To save you time I’ve picked two sample slides from the 5 most popular entries. They’ll offer you inspiration for the design of your own slides.

(To see the whole slideshow click on the link I’ve provided for each set of slides).

1. Play with text

Non-designers (like me) tend to assume that text has to be all the same size, the same colour, left or centre-justified.

Here are examples of playing with text from Ethos3’s entry into the competition.

2. Illustrate statistics

Here’s an interesting way of showing statistics – zoom in on the trend lines. Note also the use of different coloured text to highlight the increase. This is from jbrenman :

3. Use pictures instead of words

This next example by pdharam is from the “Creative/Offbeat” category – but offers a possibility for business presentations. Use a picture that says it all – no words from you or the screen.

4. A fantastic metaphor

This slide deck by grahairs uses the metaphor of an elevator for the seven levels of love. Between each level, there’s a slide with the lift going up. What could you use this metaphor for?

5. Creative masking

This set of slides about the destruction of the Amazon by gauperes uses creative masking techniques. The mask is the semi-transparent circle underlying the text, allowing the text to stand out from the background. Normally the mask is simply a rectangle and is only there to ensure the text is legible. However, in this case, the mask also represents size:

It’s not really the World’s Best Presentation Contest, because these are slide decks not live presentations. The slide decks have been designed to be self-explanatory without any narration. It should be called the World’s Best SlideDeck Contest.

Breaking SlideShare: How I Got 2,000,000 Views from Only 16 Presentations

Here’s a great story about how one guy nearly broke SlideShare (LinkedIn’s social platform for presentations) with only 16 slideshows. He breaks it down in a way that makes me want to start uploading my slides!

Our first guest post! Eugene and team reached out to us about their success with Slideshare and we didn’t believe their results until we saw the post ourselves. We thought it was an awesome example of scaling content marketing with a proven process and that’s why we wanted to share it with you. So without further ado…

-Benji and Devesh (more detailed note at the bottom)

Over the past 3 years, I’ve gotten over 2M views across 16 of my presentations on SlideShare.

2M-slideshare-views

One of those presentations brings me a staggering 1.6 Million views and 400 new email leads every month. The rest boast an impressive average of 20,000 views.

A question I get often is: “ How do you get consistent results till you hit the big one? ”

sethgodin-fix-bad-powerpoint

I’ll let you in on a secret –  I’m not that much different from you. In school, my tutor gave me a ‘C’ for a design elective.

With the right methods, content, and practices – you can replicate my success. In fact, you can do way better if you go at it consistently.

In this post, I’ll be explaining why you need to have SlideShare as part of your content outreach and how you can do it with the least amount of effort.

Why SlideShare?

There are a lot of content channels nowadays from podcasts to blogs to Facebook and Twitter.

While we have been taught to spread risks and not put all our eggs in one basket – go for calculated risks.

slideshare-stats

We are talking about 70 million visitors on Slideshare per month and an Alexa ranking of 174.

Slideshare is often undermined – but this “Quiet Giant” amongst social media networks has more opportunities for any internet marketer than all of Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn combined.

Generate Massive Traffic

One big reason why you should focus efforts on SlideShare especially if you’re selling B2B is because of the amount of potential returns you can get in terms of traffic. Slideshare is one crowded network which means it has a robust and highly-targeted traffic with very little competition.

In fact, SlideShare has up to 5 times more traffic from business owners than Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, and even LinkedIn!

One of our more popular SlideShares is still collecting subscribers and driving us more than 400 leads a month!

[slideshare id=36913987&doc=slidesharesethgodin-140712204335-phpapp01]

SlideShare works slightly differently vis-a-vis other social networks. It gets plenty of organic traffic on its own because of its high authority (top 150+ sites in the world) on search and the nature of the content is highly shareable.

The real challenge with Slideshare is there’s way too much content to digest. Your presentations need to be engaging and compelling enough to grab attention because there are thousands of other presentations out there and if yours isn’t good enough, you might lose your audience’s attention.

In fact, the most recent SlideShare we put up saw more than 300 social shares within a week. This is in comparison to BuzzSumo’s estimate that the average piece of content gets only 8 shares. There’s a method to our success and you can replicate it as well.

Rank on Search

One of our expert interviewees: Dave Gerhardt, marketing lead at Drift shared the story of how he got to the front page with their deck on ‘ Product Marketing ’:

[slideshare id=54542255&doc=whatisproductmarketingdesignversion-151029203116-lva1-app6892]

Besides getting 30,000 views, Drift also managed to get their SlideShare and subsequently their blog post on the front page of Google for the search term: “product marketing” within 30 days -all that for a one-time effort in building a good SlideShare.

One platform becomes many

The content that you create for SlideShare can not only live on SlideShare’s own platform, it can also be embedded on platforms you own like your blog or site and even platforms you don’t own like guest posts for another high-traffic blog.

This is why you should always strive to get your SlideShares embedded on high-traffic and high-authority sites because these can all become a flexible platform for you to manipulate your marketing messages in your SlideShare at a later time. Additionally, the combined traffic is a force to be reckoned with.

how-to-succeed-slideshare

An outlet to repurpose existing content

Another awesome way to save effort on your end is to repurpose content you already have or write with intention:

visual-guide-press-releases

b.) If that sounds like too much work, try going for evergreen topics that are perpetual by pedigree and inject trends or news to capture a wider market. (e.g. How to be a Presentation Jedi)

c.) Check your Google Analytics on your site to analyze search terms and use that knowledge to go out and create a presentation from existing content you already own. This way you don’t have to do any new research and can just repurpose what you already have.

Better yet, consider taking content from a few of the top posts using Buzzsumo and re-hashing it into a presentation. That way, you can be sure it will be shared.

Additionally, by re-uploading your SlideShares in future, you can re-update the links and content on these earned platforms if you decide to change strategy.

Leverage on Visual Content

In a busy online social world where advertisers and content producers are constantly vying for consumer attention, it pays to be exceptionally visual with content that you put out.

Observe – people nowadays have much shorter attention spans but are more compulsive. This can be attributed mainly to a fast-paced technology wherein you can get anything almost instantly.

slideshare-presentations

Competition is stiff in the virtual space, it only takes a few seconds or a fraction of a minute (at maximum) to catch the attention of your target audience, engage them further, and move them inches to the bottom of the revenue funnel. SlideShare’s the perfect platform to do exactly that – and so much more.

The design or visual content is the cherry on top of a delectable cake. It has to look mouth-watering or deliriously appetizing enough for someone to actually take their first bite and dig into the whole serving.

“ Visual content is more than 40X more likely to get shared on social media than other types of content.” ( source:Buffer)

great-leaders-inspire-action-slideshare

SlideShare has a few really neat integrations with platforms like Linkedin, Twitter and more where you can interact with the SlideShare from within the same browser of those web apps.

This way, your content never loses its interactive visual nature and this gives you a higher chance of persuading users to view your SlideShare and share it from within their respective platforms.

Quick & Easy

As a marketer or business owner, you should know that time can either be the enemy or an ally. With Slideshare, presentations can be created in a breeze.

If you learn the process and get some basic understanding of design, you can knock presentations in 2 hours or less. There is less content per slide meaning you have to type out less and can focus more on the visuals.

In this post, we’ll teach you regarding the process we use as well as a timelapse of us creating one.

How To Get the Most From SlideShare

Have a story to tell.

If you think about it, why do you as a reader follow GrowandConvert.com? Really, it comes down to an interesting challenge Benji & Devesh have created – 40,000 uniques in 6 months. You can do practically the same thing with your presentations.

They say if you want to be a good storyteller, you must first be an expert listener. Build trust and create brand awareness with an empowering story. The first few lines matter.

Give an intro in your presentations to address these questions: ‘Why’ are you making this?,

‘Is this for me?

Here’s an example:

Above: Empowered Presentations did a great job in building the case for you to care about smoking with their very compelling intro.

smokingslideshare

You can be more effective at this if you allow yourself to learn from other people’s stories. Watch more presentations and follow influential speakers. In this way, you hone your craft, promote your brand, and get more people involved in your network.  

Newsjacking

People are always on the lookout for fresh content. One of the most effective things you can do to ensure you have a viral piece of content is to jack what’s going on in the news and apply it to your business.

If you’re someone that keeps track of trending news, announcements or pop culture, why not use that to your advantage by putting out a relevant and timely piece related to that piece of news?

[slideshare id=56308435&doc=slidewars-151220040441]

Empowered Presentations did just that when they put out their Star Wars themed SlideShare shortly after the release of ‘The Force Awakens’ movie.

The result was a whopping 200,000 views and counting.

Another great example is Emiland De Cubber that put out ‘Dear NSA’ when the NSA released their horrible looking slides to the media.

[slideshare id=22805706&doc=dearnsa-130611074658-phpapp02]

He got 1.2 Million views for his SlideShare, 13 media features in outlets like Mashable, TechCrunch and Business Insider as well as more than 30,000 social shares (you read that right) and hundreds of leads.

All those results for a timely piece of content done up in a couple of hours. If he could do it, so can you.

Have a Distribution Strategy

Bake the distribution strategy into the deck. Quote several experts on your topic and then notify them when it goes live (using an automated tool like ContentMarketer.io).

content-marketer-io

ContentMarketer.io will pick out all the names mentioned and find their email and twitter profile allowing you to mass message them.

Sharing other people’s talks and events build trust within the community. Most often than not – they do return the favor. This radically gives you that competitive edge.

Sometimes, it really boils down to who you know and what they say about your work. In this case, if you can get easy endorsements by expert influencers, why not?

Another great way is to launch your SlideShare in conjunction with a blog post on high profile blog helps to dramatically increase your reach – this is what we did with Hubspot and that presentation got featured as one of the best SlideShares of 2014 and got us 400 opt-ins per month for the last year.

Optimize for SEO

Optimizing your SlideShares for SEO is a very straightforward process that most neglect to do after they’ve spent hours creating their content.

Not only does driving traffic to your SlideShare become easier if you rank for the right keywords, but this also means that you’ll attract people that are actually searching for stuff you create.

This means you are shooting towards a targeted and hungry audience.

Here’s a simple step-by-step process to optimizing your SlideShare for SEO:

a)          Grab the low-hanging-fruit (keywords)

Remember, don’t base your content on your keywords but look for keywords based on the content that you’ve already created so that you won’t mislead people who search up your content.

I’d recommend doing this only after you’re done with your SlideShare so you won’t get distracted.

Most internet marketers would base their content on relevant keywords or key-phrases which are highly competitive but will somehow give you lesser chances of moving up the front page of search engine results.

If you’re looking to rank for a popular keyword (for example, if you’re writing about digital marketing and want to rank for ‘digital marketing’) it’s going to be difficult if there’s too much competition.

This is why you’ll need to do your research, get on Google Keyword planner and start searching up some long-tail keywords that might not get as many monthly searches but are easier to rank for:

seo-presentation-design

In this case, instead of choosing to rank for an overly-competitive term like PowerPoint, I chose to try ranking for ‘beautiful powerpoint’

beautiful-powerpoint-SEO

When you put your SlideShare up, it’ll inherit SlideShare’s site authority and gives you a higher chance of ranking higher on Google

beautiful-powerpoint-SERPs

For my SlideShare, I managed to rank on the first page of Google after I channeled some traffic to it. Till date it’s gotten more than 900,000 views. That’s how you select a good keyword that gets results.

Upload SEO Optimization

Each of the fields in the upload window will add to your SlideShare’s discoverability both on search engines and SlideShare’s internal search function. Here are some of the main ones:

upload-seo-optimization

1) A compelling title that includes your keyword

Your title is the one that’s going to appear on search engine search results as the main header. The words you type here will also be included in your SlideShare’s URL. This means you need to be extra careful when selecting a title to ensure that it contains your keyword that you’re trying to rank for and will likely command your audience’s interest.

2) A brief description

I personally think this plays but a small part in your search optimization efforts. But since the description is referenced in the place of meta-text in the search results, it can play a part in your rankings if you write something relevant.

These tags typically affect SlideShare’s internal search engine more. With that in mind you should pre-empt terms that SlideShare users would search to find content related to your industry to increase discoverability.

tags-slideshare

4)Transcript

SlideShare automatically transcribes all the software-readable text within presentations that you upload in PDF or PowerPoint. This really increases the searchability of your SlideShare as there are much more keywords on the page and variation of content.

With this in mind, you can take extra effort to also optimize keywords within the presentation slides itself.

As mentioned above, the best thing about SlideShare presentations is that they can be re-uploaded and changed whenever you want.

So let’s say if you just wrote a post for a big blog, imagine being able to update your embedded SlideShare and changing it’s content anytime you want!

This is huge because there’s no other medium where this is possible (doesn’t work with images, YouTube videos, etc.)

Most SlideShare users only use this function to replace mistakes in their SlideShare, but the flexibility to change your embeds allows you to have more control over these platforms that you’ve spent so much effort to earn.

5-secrets-killer-lead-gen-slideshare

If you have a new product or event to announce or market, you can simply re-upload and include an extra slide with that new call-to-action on a guest blog post that you put in place possibly a year back!

This way you’ll be able to change your strategy as your objectives change for your SlideShares.

How to Design Presentations in 2 hours or Less

Now, I know what you are thinking – this seems like a ton of work but let me assure you once you have a system down, you can start knocking these things out in less than 2 hours.

Here’s proof of me doing just that:

Step 1: Write Your SlideShare Story

Remember these two magic numbers – 10 / 50.

These stand for 10 words per Slide and 50 slides per presentation. Just like with blog posts, the longer your presentation is – the more views and shares you will receive.

slideshare-views-slide-count

Moreover, having fewer words per slide makes it easier for the reader to flip through your presentation by ‘skimming’.

beautiful-design-slideshare

Powerful headlines can make the difference between one share and one hundred shares (show some statistics).

Use a tool like Co-Schedules Headline analyzer to see if yours stacks up.

Hint: Make sure to include numbers and people love case studies and real life examples

Step 2: Creating a Quick Theme

Before you start rolling with the slides, you need to come up with a theme that will wrap up your presentation.

quick-slideshare-theme

Pick two main colors

A quick way to create a color scheme quickly is to simply select two colors – a light or dark monochromatic color like white or black and an accent color that matches your brand or content.

Anything more is just playing with fire especially if you’re unsure about what you’re doing.

Pick a couple of fonts

typegenius-find-perfect-font

Use Typegenius.com to choose a basic font pairing and you’re off and running. Pick bold fonts that grab attention and are legible to ensure that you compel readers to interact with your presentation.

Search for high-quality images

pexels

After you have your outline, searching for quality images is the next most time-consuming task.

I recommend searching for images on Pexels.com or Unsplash.com and simply put them in the background with an overlay if you’re short on time and design ability.

If you want to communicate something visually but can’t find the right image, consider using vectors. Sites like Freepik.com or thenounproject.com are awesome repositories to find icons, but make sure to attribute it to the artist.

And if you really want to take your presentation to the next level, then you might want to check out CreativeMarket or DepositPhotos for a wider selection of quality resources with more flexibility.

Often on SlideShare, your cover design plays the biggest part in determining the success of your presentation because it’s the first thing that your audiences and SlideShare’s editorial team will see. It pays to spend extra time to make sure this is top-notch or invest in a designer to create a quality cover for you, Ross Simmonds invested $20,000 in doing just that.

Copy Layouts

This is the part where most people falter. Finding layouts that work within the presentation for different kinds of content.

I always recommend beginners to visit sites like NoteandPoint.com,   Startup Pitch Decks  and slideshare.net/ssod to get inspiration for layouts when tackling their SlideShares.

copy-slideshare-layout

There are only so many ways you can layout a slide, use this fact to your advantage by emulating layouts that already work in your SlideShare.

No shame in copying layouts if you use your own style, colors and seek inspiration from numerous sources.

Optimize and Upload Your SlideShare

As a last-minute check-list, it’s recommended that you optimize your SlideShare to avoid any unintended blunders on hindsight.

upload-slideshare

a)  Be extra careful with your titles because SlideShare picks that out and uses it for your URL.

Example: Ace your presentation in 10 minutes becomes: slideshare.net/ace-your-presentation-in-10-minutes/

If your titles or twitter handles are wrong, you might want to re-upload your presentation and delete your first upload.

b)  Double-check and proofread your SlideShare to ensure that its error-free, you wouldn’t want any embarrassing typos to spoil your professional image.

c) Uploading at midnight or 2am EST to give your presentation the most amount of chance to make it on the first page. The earlier you get it up in the day, the more time it has to collect views and get noticed by the editors at SlideShare.

d) Make sure to schedule a bunch of tweets to @SlideShare and other related users that are mentioned in your SlideShare. Doing simple outreach after you upload helps your SlideShare get an early boost and increases your chances of getting on the front page.

…and start acing your SlideShares.

Eugene Cheng is the co-founder and creative lead of HighSpark (formerly Slide Comet, a strategic presentation consultancy serving Fortune 500 companies like: Panasonic, Dentsu, Nike. A self-confessed presentation obsessive, he relishes in building compelling visual content for his agency’s channel and his personal channel on SlideShare and is also a Keynote Author ( top 1% of SlideShare).

Note from Benji and Devesh: We were approached by Eugene Chen and his partners earlier this month and they mentioned the amount of traffic they got from Slideshare. This is something we’ve been wondering: ‘whether we could get traffic from repurposing our content on Slideshare’. So naturally we were interested in seeing what they did.

When we saw their results, we wanted them to case study it on Grow and Convert.

What we like about this concept is that Slideshare is a medium that is custom built for companies and brands to market on.

We like slideshare because:

a) most companies have info in PowerPoint form sitting around

b) more people inside the company can express themselves well through slides than writing.

c) As Eugene mentions towards the end of the post, you can use Slideshare’s domain authority to rank your presentation high for key search terms (if your presentation is good), so it’s a great lead generation tool.

So we think it’s a great content marketing opportunity for lots of companies.

One final note, at the end of the article, Eugene is giving away a professional presentation template so you can make a nicely designed presentation.

Since we’re all about transparency at Grow and Convert, we want to mention that it’s an affiliate link. The template is totally free, but if later you you decide to buy something from them, we’ll get a share of it.

If you’ve been following us you know we’re not really trying to create products or think about revenue yet, and that’s still true, so you won’t see any pushy sales from us on this.

We just think Eugene’s strategies are actionable for content marketers at companies and based on actual experience. Which means a perfect fit for our site. We thought this product would be useful for our audience if someone was interested in learning more about scaling Slideshare.

Hope you enjoyed the post!

20 Great Examples of PowerPoint Presentation Design [+ Templates]

Carly Williams

Published: January 17, 2024

When it comes to PowerPoint presentation design, there's no shortage of avenues you can take.

PowerPoint presentation examples graphic with computer monitor, person holding a megaphone, and a plant to signify growth.

While all that choice — colors, formats, visuals, fonts — can feel liberating, it‘s important that you’re careful in your selection as not all design combinations add up to success.

→ Free Download: 10 PowerPoint Presentation Templates [Access Now]

In this blog post, I’m sharing some of my favorite PowerPoint tips and templates to help you nail your next presentation.

Table of Contents

What makes a good PowerPoint presentation?

Powerpoint design ideas, best powerpoint presentation slides, good examples of powerpoint presentation design.

In my opinion, a great PowerPoint presentation gets the point across succinctly while using a design that doesn't detract from it.

Here are some of the elements I like to keep in mind when I’m building my own.

1. Minimal Animations and Transitions

Believe it or not, animations and transitions can take away from your PowerPoint presentation. Why? Well, they distract from the content you worked so hard on.

A good PowerPoint presentation keeps the focus on your argument by keeping animations and transitions to a minimum. I suggest using them tastefully and sparingly to emphasize a point or bring attention to a certain part of an image.

2. Cohesive Color Palette

I like to refresh my memory on color theory when creating a new PowerPoint presentation.

A cohesive color palette uses complementary and analogous colors to draw the audience’s attention and help emphasize certain aspects at the right time.

It‘s impossible for me to tell you the specific design ideas you should go after in your next PowerPoint, because, well, I don’t know what the goal of your presentation is.

Luckily, new versions of PowerPoint actually suggest ideas for you based on the content you're presenting. This can help you keep up with the latest trends in presentation design .

PowerPoint is filled with interesting boilerplate designs you can start with. To find these suggestions, open PowerPoint and click the “Design” tab in your top navigation bar. Then, on the far right side, you'll see the following choices:

slideshare presentation examples

This simplistic presentation example employs several different colors and font weights, but instead of coming off as disconnected, the varied colors work with one another to create contrast and call out specific concepts.

What I like: The big, bold numbers help set the reader's expectations, as they clearly signify how far along the viewer is in the list of tips.

10. “Pixar's 22 Rules to Phenomenal Storytelling,” Gavin McMahon

This presentation by Gavin McMahon features color in all the right places. While each of the background images boasts a bright, spotlight-like design, all the characters are intentionally blacked out.

What I like: This helps keep the focus on the tips, while still incorporating visuals. Not to mention, it's still easy for me to identify each character without the details. (I found you on slide eight, Nemo.)

11. “Facebook Engagement and Activity Report,” We Are Social

Here's another great example of data visualization in the wild.

What I like: Rather than displaying numbers and statistics straight up, this presentation calls upon interesting, colorful graphs, and charts to present the information in a way that just makes sense.

12. “The GaryVee Content Model,” Gary Vaynerchuk

This wouldn‘t be a true Gary Vaynerchuk presentation if it wasn’t a little loud, am I right?

What I like: Aside from the fact that I love the eye-catching, bright yellow background, Vaynerchuk does a great job of incorporating screenshots on each slide to create a visual tutorial that coincides with the tips. He also does a great job including a visual table of contents that shows your progress as you go .

13. “20 Tweetable Quotes to Inspire Marketing & Design Creative Genius,” IMPACT Branding & Design

We‘ve all seen our fair share of quote-chronicling presentations but that isn’t to say they were all done well. Often the background images are poor quality, the text is too small, or there isn't enough contrast.

Well, this professional presentation from IMPACT Branding & Design suffers from none of said challenges.

What I like: The colorful filters over each background image create just enough contrast for the quotes to stand out.

14. “The Great State of Design,” Stacy Kvernmo

This presentation offers up a lot of information in a way that doesn't feel overwhelming.

What I like: The contrasting colors create visual interest and “pop,” and the comic images (slides 6 through 12) are used to make the information seem less buttoned-up and overwhelming.

15. “Clickbait: A Guide To Writing Un-Ignorable Headlines,” Ethos3

Not going to lie, it was the title that convinced me to click through to this presentation but the awesome design kept me there once I arrived.

What I like: This simple design adheres to a consistent color pattern and leverages bullet points and varied fonts to break up the text nicely.

16. “Digital Transformation in 50 Soundbites,” Julie Dodd

This design highlights a great alternative to the “text-over-image” display we've grown used to seeing.

What I like: By leveraging a split-screen approach to each presentation slide, Julie Dodd was able to serve up a clean, legible quote without sacrificing the power of a strong visual.

17. “Fix Your Really Bad PowerPoint,” Slide Comet

When you‘re creating a PowerPoint about how everyone’s PowerPoints stink, yours had better be terrific. The one above, based on the ebook by Seth Godin, keeps it simple without boring its audience.

What I like: Its clever combinations of fonts, together with consistent color across each slide, ensure you're neither overwhelmed nor unengaged.

18. “How Google Works,” Eric Schmidt

Simple, clever doodles tell the story of Google in a fun and creative way. This presentation reads almost like a storybook, making it easy to move from one slide to the next.

What I like: This uncluttered approach provides viewers with an easy-to-understand explanation of a complicated topic.

19. “What Really Differentiates the Best Content Marketers From The Rest,” Ross Simmonds

Let‘s be honest: These graphics are hard not to love. I especially appreciate the author’s cartoonified self-portrait that closes out the presentation. Well played, Ross Simmonds.

What I like: Rather than employing the same old stock photos, this unique design serves as a refreshing way to present information that's both valuable and fun.

20. “Be A Great Product Leader,” Adam Nash

This presentation by Adam Nash immediately draws attention by putting the company's logo first — a great move if your company is well known.

What I like: He uses popular images, such as ones of Megatron and Pinocchio, to drive his points home. In the same way, you can take advantage of popular images and media to keep your audience engaged.

PowerPoint Presentation Examples for the Best Slide Presentation

Mastering a PowerPoint presentation begins with the design itself.

Get inspired by my ideas above to create a presentation that engages your audience, builds upon your point, and helps you generate leads for your brand.
