How to Create an Awesome Slide Presentation (for Keynote or Powerpoint)

[@ABC-ho4te]

You have no idea how helpful this was. Usually I increase an educational videos speed but the way you speak and present is hypnotizing

[@whitestone2469]

Your videos have helped me reach over $180,000 in trading by age 23! Thanks Pat Flynn. Keep the videos coming. 👍🏽

[@andrewblack4432]

Congrats ! i made a lot during covid from my passive income .

[@favourazah1504]

I'm convinced that the big investors and analysts are trying to scare us to keep us poor and ignorant to the market.. because its steady doing good after all the jobless and market crash talks

[@jamesjude4988]

Congrats and wishing you the best .

@kim sun When I was 20 ,but you need a finance Pro if you don’t want to loose and if you want to be more successful.

I don't get it why so many people are complaining. This tutorial was very informative and got me hanging on the edge of my seat.

[@artmy3045]

Ikr, to be honest most of the presentation were soulless. Its It's just so boring that I become soulless during presenting just because i must do the slide format that lecture want me to. And it's also why I really enjoy this one.

[@Monero_Monello]

1 correct slide size 2 avoid bullet points 3 Topic + at least 1 support image 4 Choose a style that you like 5 Keep the text on the top 6 Show a "road map" (how far you've gone into the presentation) 7 Use graphs and tables 8 Higlight the most important portions of your slides 9 Go dark during story time (take people's attention)

[@desmondchew1286]

avoid bullet point but you help him do it🤔

[@Monero_Monello]

@@desmondchew1286 It's so people don't have to listen to that boring video lol

[@arshaady1615]

Bless you hehe.

[@ma1c0lm81]

thanks

[@ingenierianaval9796]

After 25 years of making presentations, finally, I found you to show me the right way to succeed. Thank you Pat!

[@wordswellsaid]

As a public speaking + communication coach, I have to say these tips are SPOT ON! I share them all with my students and coaching clients. I tell them that your slides are like your outfit when you go on an interview. It's that extra something that shows your personality, but you mean business!

[@papajani5206]

I'm a high school student from Hungary. I reached the finals of a national competition where i was to give a ppt presentation about a certain subject in Spanish. Didn"t know much about how to give a successful presentation, but thanks to this video I managed to rethink &reform my ppt skills and I actually won. Cheers man, really appreciate this vid.

[@RenaesHomestead]

I've heard your name about 5,484,494 times in David Siteman Garland's Create Awesome Online Courses Facebook group. After the last time I FINALLY decided to check out your channel. Super happy I did. 100% Awesome-sauce right here. Thanks!

[@paulgero]

Pat...this was so very helpful (even 3 years later)...and continues to affirm why you are one of the nicest and most helpful people on the internet..

[@robtownsend3058]

Brilliant! You've just forced me to redo my entire presentation. Not wasted time, you've shown me how much better it should and could be. Thank you.

[@223richboy]

dude whole time I didn't realize you were giving a presentation Such a great time.

[@BrianSims4]

Very Helful Tips to avoid losing your audience. Great examples.

[@caua1865]

You're awesome. I've already know I shouldn't copy others slide presentations but I simply couldn't. However, now I can, after see your tips and principally listen to them. I can.

[@VideoSchoolOnline]

Great tips Pat! I'm creating my first really hardcore webinar with slides - this will really help me out!

[@Deepen_Pardeshi]

This is more helpful and catchy than any other videos on how to give a presentation... U rock Flynn!!

[@jacobtyler7172]

Pat, your speaking skills are reaching very polished proportions....love the confidence too when delivering your tips....keep up the good work!

[@Tommy_BCA]

Jacob Tyler I am very not used to doing slides. But after listen all the thing that u have shared, its really triggers me and i can see how interested i am listening to the whole video without realizing it was 17min. U did a great job to get my attention. Really helpful. Thank you, thank you so much

[@sametteandroid3658]

Very helpful hints. Good information. We do put too much information on our slides and minimizing the fillers and maximizing the presenter's word impact is of value - Thanks.

[@NelaDunato]

I have to say that when it comes to lectures and seminars, I actually do appreciate when the presentation covers all the key information and the lecturer makes it available for download or e-mails to all students, so I don't have to take notes for every single thing they say. I even print the presentation if it's extra valuable. I want to do this for my own students as well.

[@crstube]

That's why you also create a handout

[@NelaDunato]

@@crstube I find it unnecessary to create extra documentation when it can all be covered in the slides. My actual handouts are worksheets for practical assignments.

[@kasunmsenarathne]

This guy is a pro. completely got every tips and every words. good job

[@valton47]

KISS - Pat shows that this formula works doesn't he? Keep. It. Simple. Stupid. (or perhaps; Keep. It. Supremely. Simple.) Too often (and I'm guilty as charged) we use too much text, use it as a crutch, then read it off the slide because we're not very confident in what we're doing, and then lose the audience. I intend to follow Pat's nine rules to the letter in future. It takes more work, and it takes more preparation, but the quality of what we present will be so much better! Thank you Pat. Great presentation. :-)

[@writethevision2015]

Preparing for my first keynote speaking engagement and this was helpful!

[@SlideFormation]

It's amazing this video is 6 yeras old and still up to date and relevant!

[@LaRocqueAdrienne]

This was exactly what I was looking for and more- a tutorial on how to create an engaging presentation. You didn't waste any time. One of the best informative videos I've seen on any subject matter. Thanks for sharing.

[@akistepinska]

I like point #6 - about adding information roadmaps. I haven't thought about it before but that is super helpful especially for a long presentation - share with your audience where they are in the presentation. Thank you Pat!

[@arturoolvera6146]

Very nice pointers.... love the focus box

[@christinechen1723]

Thank you for sharing the tips of making awesome slides. It really gave me a lot of inspirations.

[@sandratiepermann3417]

This was super handy, thanks so much! Very clear, easy to understand, and completely achievable.

[@LA-wd3jq]

I think we've all been to a presentation where the topic was interesting, but you just wanna fall asleep. I never thought so much about things like how important is the fonts was. And I like roadmap thing - that's a real great idea. Great stuff Pat!

[@RemotePossibilities1]

You might like this short video about making the roadmap: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Zp-bqpilo96HY6s

[@rochafirme2543]

Thank you so much. This is very creative and absolutely helpful. All the best.

[@mervatel-deftar8412]

Pat you are the best. I really been preparing ppt since long time and i thought it was fine till i saw your video. I knew now how to make my ppt more life and impressing thanks a lot.

[@johannnes.b8332]

wow you really are a Great presenter these 17mins just ran away great job!

[@manansinghal5634]

Loved the video!!! great presentation on how to do presentations xD

[@KyKyDeee]

Great video. very engaging and well presented. thank you

[@abiodimayo9835]

I've just discovered your channel. What a fabulous and engaging presentation! When I saw 17minutes I thought oh gosh that's a bit long. But you made it seemless. I was engaged from start to finish.

[@springformation]

Wonderful presentation, thanks Pat!

[@teresagaleano9287]

You have given me the most awesome tricks

[@financialalternativesegma5903]

Love it! Thank you for this awesome presentation!

[@keithnmdowling]

Great guidance to a very positive use of keynote/ppt away from the corporate sense of use, well done, thank you.

[@denisewozniak]

This is extremely helpful. I particularly liked the tip of keeping the words at the top of the slide. I tried my first slideshare today. I wasn't embarrassed by it but see now how I could have done better. Thank you!

[@seanung6803]

good stuff ! keen to watch more on different ways how you can approach in building presentations etc,

[@MohamedMusthfaRemzy]

This 3rd time I am watching your video - It helps a lot. Thank you Pat.

[@jocarly11]

Great video. I found it super helpful. Thanks, Pat.

[@redrabbitization]

I'm taking notes of everything you mentioned on the slides Pat. I am applying for a job post, and I need to present something. Thanks for this.

[@prmahes]

Really interesting info. I truly believe those tips will make a huge difference in the way I present

[@KingsleyCartwright_KingsCourt]

This was pretty helpful. Some I was familiar with. But, the blank slide was the secret sauce!!! You’re the man! And I appreciate you sharing what’s worked for you in the past.

[@tasnimmahdiya1370]

Loved his "boom" after every tips.

[@sabrinasmith75]

Awesome! I'm putting together a slideshow and I'm excited how it will turn out based on these tips! Thank You

[@AMacProOwner]

Going dark is just a miracle tool. Awesome.

[@travelwell6049]

I'm due to present a case study, so this is great. I love the road map feature.

[@cijackson1]

Thank you so much for such a better way to use PowerPoint!

[@mranderson5005]

These tips are definitely helpful if you want to "catch" the audience without the need of many hardfacts like financial ratios. But if you present in front of a class in university or in front of your colleges on the job, than there is much more information that a presentation need to cover.

[@Brandi.Nicole]

Hey it’s Pat! Have a presentation tomorrow and looked this up. Cool to see you made a video on it. Thanks!

[@DylanSigleyDropServicing]

I feel like I should be paying for this, so good.

[@Brandi.Nicole]

Right! I’ve bought a lot of books with his link to give back. Dudes been helping me since 2013!

[@goal7779]

Thanx very much Pat for sharing this very useful information!

[@puppyluvacademy4094]

Awesome!! I am so glad I stumbled upon this Slide Deck...'How to?'... Really great information! It made me want to dive right in and make an awesome slide presentation myself. Thank you for sharing!!

Gracias Pat!!! Very helpful!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@suewessels1022]

Thank you that was great. I hate being bored and being boring is unacceptable.

[@KeithJamesDesigns]

Very nice job. I can't begin to tell you how many terrible presentations I've had to suffer through. There is absolutely no reason that someone can't create a a compelling presentation. Just take a few minutes and watch a couple of TED X presentations. 20 minutes seems to be the sweet spot.

[@ShastaKath]

Thanks, Pat! Happy surfing, I hope!

[@ContinualShiftwithDaveRogers]

Much appreciate the tips and guidance...Good content

[@rayredmond8205]

Hi Pat! Thanks a lot and for your Global service. I travel a lot to various countries in need and what a good thing to give back. You information is good and I look to seeing more of your ways and means to making my Keynote address better!

[@ashleymusgrave5069]

Outstanding. Great video. Thank you.

[@SucceedEng]

Pat, you are a genius! Can’t wait to try your tricks! 😊

[@Rogdog692002]

Good comments in this video. One caveat, know your audience. If you’ve got a standard approach in a company or group, then deviation from that standard runs risk. So use these ideas to modify and improve an existing approach. Don’t try and be a revolutionary to an unprepared or unreceptive audience. For instance, Japanese business people love lots of data. To eliminate that from a business presentation makes you look unreliable. Instead use things like the light box idea to help draw the eye.

[@minorarr4066]

Thanks pat, for your tips 😊

[@jewelryworld4096]

Great Job Sir. Keep it up.

[@maryanncharlene9401]

[@susannebukatz4457]

Great tips and well-presented. Thank you very much!

[@TheLawrencelions]

Incredibly creative! Easy to remember because the visuals were interesting and fun.

[@ankitgupta-lh9qt]

Watched a bunch of videos... But this is awesome😊👍

[@kaloyantsilev]

Great tips as always, Pat! Just couple of things - first, after your dark slide, it is important that your next slide is not too bright. You don't want to blind people, especially if the room is dark. Second, Pat, it would be really helpful if you put any links in the description box so people can just copy-paste them. Thanks!

[@michaelcondon2723]

Wow! Amazing tips. Thanks!

[@srilankaholidays9175]

Fantastic presentation. Thank you

[@patflynn]

Hey everyone, if you'd like to skip the intro (which I would not recommend) and just get right into the tips, skip to about 2:20 in the timeline.

[@iEditus]

Pat, enjoyed your video and would like to get your feedback on something. What are your thoughts on creating a visually stunning slide show but with no voice over due to presenting to a foreign audience. All text would obviously be in the native language. Thanks

[@peterpeter5025]

Pat Flynn hello man. I have to do a powerpoint over a book. But the problem is that i can do slides like this cause i have to read something from the book and have to tell many informations what can i do i have really no idea what design i should choose and so on pls help i have only 2 weeks left

[@dionisiotato4730]

Excellent Guidance !! Thank You!!

[@pramod_dalmia]

Great slides Very apt and very well made Lucky to see this

[@ShelliG]

This is definitely audience dependent. Most of my presentations are training or project updates and the slides are needed for reference later. This is true for engagement for sure but I am not doing slides to present and slides for reference.

[@chiefnavydoc]

I totally love your video! thank you! I share it often...

Sometimes I can't catch your fast speaking because I'm not native speaker but I follow you from Thailand so I've followed for your good content ... and I also learn much more from your English accent as well, It's so interesting English listening practice too ... Thanks a lot Pat
