SIZE FONTS APPROPRIATELY Text should be large enough to be read by the person in the back of the room.

GO EASY ON THE BULLETS TRY TO SHARE ONE IDEA PER SLIDE No one will remember 10 bullet points… BUT THEY WILL REMEMBER 10 AWESOME SLIDES TRY TO SHARE ONE IDEA PER SLIDE Use each slide to build your case and incrementally tell your story.

USE SINGLE IMAGES It’s a presentation not a photo album

It’s all you need to keep things simple USE NO MORE THAN 5 COLOURS A harmonious palette can easily enhance the look of your entire presentation. It’s all you need to keep things simple

DON’T USE MORE THAN 6 LINES OF TEXT REMEMBER: The audience often has to process everything you say while they view the slide.
