8. Now that we know what does not work, let me tell you what works.
Let me show you the road to awesomeness.

9. Attract attention
People expect presentations to be boring. They will be busy with their mobiles.
So attract attention at the very start. Your passion for the topic and your style will do that.

10. Why agree with you?
Give people a reason to agree with what you are saying. What expertise you have or research/analysis you have done which makes us agree to you? Only when people agree will they do what you say.

11. Make your content easy to understand
Make your content easy to understand. Your audience might not know about the topic as much as you know. Get rid of jargons and complex charts. A layman should be able to understand you.

Simple slide design
Do not waste time on making slides. People have come to listen to you and not to see your slides. Slides are secondary. Slides are only there to amplify and clarify your ideas.

13. Use photos
As Much As You Can

14. Know your objective
Spend time on preparing your content. If you are raising sponsorship money, find out what the sponsor wants and how you can give him that. Focus on meeting your objective.

15. Be memorable
Your audience should remember the top 3 things you said in your presentation. Then only will they act on it and spread it. So find out what are the top 3 messages and deliver it powerfully.
