Here is How You Can Avoid the Poor Features on all your Business Presentations
Just how is PowerPoint built in companies today? Here at Eyeful we keep a close eye on PowerPoint usage in the corporate world and one of the ways we keep bang up to date is with our annual survey. In the 87% of people who use PowerPoint 83% used it in face to face presentations. Take that along with 73% of people presenting to customers and 72% to prospects you begin to perceive just how significant a tool presentation tools is in our customers facing world. How much really depends on the presentation? Well consider about how much effort goes into nailing that meeting. Market research, cold calls, courting warm leads and after that finally persuading the customers to have a meeting. All of that work culminates this one presentation. This solitary presentation can justify all the hard work, or it can waste it. If you can see the value that the ultimate piece of the jigsaw has, then you begin to see how significant it is. A staggering 52% of the owners of the content within organisations have had no formal training on presentation tools or on presenting. Coupled with an massive 72% of people who have no formal process for updating their presentation we commence to see how under managed PowerPoint content is. When you look the cold hard statistics it can be rather scary as the probability of you or I being obliged to sit through one of these substandard presentation tools is extremely high.
