Mu ueno!
He ufrido mucho viendo preentacione con ea caracterítica.

oceto de lo que erá una gran preentación.
aludo dede Hondura.
uen dia, aludo de l alvador. He leido el correo que me llega ore tip para
preentacione de Vinicio Chanto. poile coneguir eto en epañol? Mucha
gracia.Aminta
Vincio,
let me pleae diagree with the ize limit ou propoe. When I do a three da
workhop preentation, which i intended to inform and educate m cutomer,
ize reall doen't matter! No, the thing that matter mot are tructure (!),
qualit and richne of the content. How hould I explain ome complex pattern
to m (paing) audience retricting melf to our rule of "ut anthing under
20 lide i great"???
Preentation are wa more than imple "pitch deck".
