#303: The 5 Laws of High-Impact Sales Presentations

PowerPoints don’t kill ideas. PowerPoints riddled with bullets kill ideas. 

Presentations are the language of business. But the key to using PowerPoint to tell your story is to envision it from your customer’s point of view. What do you want them to think, feel and do? Their decision to move forward with working with you is strongly influenced by how you make them feel in your presentation.

If you can tell a story through PowerPoint that changes the minds and behaviors of people, you can write your ticket in the corporate world.

Ginger uses her experience in storytelling and persuasion to train corporate teams in telling better business stories to move high-stakes work forward with clear and succinct presentations that are grounded in story structure and backed by brain science.
