How Do I Electronic Signature PPT for Sales Teams

Hey, what's up, everybody? Pat Flynn here and welcome to episode 17 of SPI TV. This episode you're going to learn how to create an awesome slidedeck. So the next time you're up on stage or doing any sort of presentation, anything that requires a slidedeck, I'm going to help you make it look better, much better than what you see here. There's a lot of things you shouldn't be doing, a lot of things that I do see out there and hopefully this will help guide you so that you create an awesome slidedeck and impress people who you are presenting to, have a more memorable presentation, and you're going to be able to stand out from all the other presenters out there who are going to be creating slidedecks the normal, boring way. So, check it out. Cue the intro. (upbeat music) Have you ever sat in on a presentation, whether at work or at a conference, where you literally just want to fall asleep or maybe you have fallen asleep or maybe you get bored or just lose interest and you check your phone for email or Twitter or Instagram or maybe you're playing a game or something? It's the worst, right? You just want to leave. You know you're wasting your time. Well, if you're a presenter, if you're up on stage presenting, this is obviously not what you want the audience to look like. You want to hold their interest. You want to captivate them. You want to engage them. You want them sitting on the edge of their seats, listening and hanging on to every next word that you have to say. That's what we want, and a lot of times we don't do that. One of the big reasons is because of the slides that we have. Slides are an amazing tool. Unfortunately, we abuse the tool that allows us to create these slides, PowerPoint or KeyNote, we use them in a way that bores people to death. That's why there's this thing called death by PowerPoint. I found this really funny cartoon where this guy's being executed, but he's not being executed by guillotine or hanging or anything like that. He's being executed by being bored to death by a PowerPoint presentation. There's a guy pointing at the presentation in the little mask and it's just so funny because it's so real, this death by PowerPoint thing. I mean, this is a typical slide you'll see at presentations, at board meetings, at conferences and it's just you're killing people when you do things like this. I mean, the bullet point situation. They're called "bullet points" for a reason. Why? Because bullets kill people, right? And because, when people start reading this from the top, I mean, they see all these bullet points, they start reading ahead, and when they do that, they don't listen to what you're talking about. Plus, oftentimes you're just reading off this bullet point list. It sounds totally...
