Marketing Strategy

Giving Bad Remote Presentations

Can you recall a presentation (in person or online) that you actualy enjoyed? How often does that happen? Rarely, right? Peter Cohen wrote about his top ten ways to turn off attendees at your remote presentation to help grow the number of boring presentations that attendees will forget.

I had a manager who was brilliant, but gave lousy presentations. He relied on PowerPoint with tons of content and practically read each slide and added a little meaningless commentary to each.

Recall the presentations you remember enjoying and learning something -- what made them successful?

I practice the 6x6 rule - No more than 6 lines to a slide and no more than 6 words to a line.

I like Guy Kawasaki's 10/20/30 rule. "Keep all presentations to less than 10 slides and no more than 20 minutes and a font size of at least 30."
