DON'T USE
backgrounds that don't make sense
LIKETHIS
ONE
Unless that hand is your hand holding the money that you actually made with this presentation. Then it's ok.
A background image needs to make sense and relate directly to the content that you are presenting.
A background image needs to reinforce the message that you are trying to convey with the content of the presentation.
Sometimes there is no need for an image. The message itself is clear and powerful enough by itself. Consider the following slide:
ULTIMATE TO A MONEY MAKING PRESENTATIONHACKS
The slide looks simple, the message is clear and you know what to expect from this presentation.
Maybe, add some more borders, and details to the side to fill up that empty space and make the following slide:
ULTIMATE TO A MONEY MAKING PRESENTATIONHACKS
into...
ULTIMATE TO A MONEY MAKING PRESENTATIONHACKS
This leads us to the second hack.
SECONDHACK
TO A MONEY MAKING PRESENTATION
DON’TADD
unnecessary stuff just to fill in empty space.
Unless what you add actually looks good and it can answer an important question:
Why?
Why are those blue frames present in this presentation? What do they mean? They look good but...why?
In this presentation, each frame is used to notify the reader visually, of the number of the hack presented. For example, the following slide which concerns the second hack...
SECONDHACK
TO A MONEY MAKING PRESENTATION
...will look like...
SECONDHACK
TO A MONEY MAKING PRESENTATION
When you think about it, now the slides look like cards which are stacked on top of each other and you reader is actually stacking them as he reads further on.
Clever stuff. Or even better, you can use the frames to notify the reader how many hacks are left in this presentation. This way you answer another important question:
How much more will i have to suffer until this presentation is
over?
Let's say this presentation has 5 hacks. Visually it would look like the following:
FIRSTHACK
TO A MONEY MAKING PRESENTATION
SECONDHACK
TO A MONEY MAKING PRESENTATION
Hmm, maybe if we make them disappear differently...
FIRSTHACK
TO A MONEY MAKING PRESENTATION
SECONDHACK
TO A MONEY MAKING PRESENTATION
THIRDHACK
TO A MONEY MAKING PRESENTATION
FOURTHHACK
TO A MONEY MAKING PRESENTATION
FIFTHHACK
TO A MONEY MAKING PRESENTATION
Much better.
This way, your reader knows that you are down to the last hack and you can keep his attention for a little longer. We, on the other hand, are still on the second hack. Poor you.
You can always stop reading and move on to do something else, but you will miss out on one of the three most important money making presentation hacks ever. The first one is the following:
THIRDHACK
TO A MONEY MAKING PRESENTATION
INTRODUCEMYSTERY
AND INTRIGUE...
...to keep the audience wanting for more and letting them know that what follows is too good to miss out on.
Intrigue tickles the brain and makes him ask himself an important question:
What will i miss out on that is so unique and i cannot find anywhere else?
Most brains go into “scarcity mode” and keep on reading so that they won’t miss out.
This works every time, particularly if the presentation is very long and if you are introducing something novel such as an ultimate hack to a money making presentation.
Which leads us to the next hack:
FOURTHHACK
TO A MONEY MAKING PRESENTATION
AVOIDUSING
WORDS LIKE “MONEY MAKING”...
...in the cover slide, just to attract readers. It's misleading and unfair to their attention.
Unless you have indeed made money with the hacks that are involved in this presentation and you know that they are the ultimate hacks that exist and there are no other hacks beyond.
Otherwise, using words such as ultimate, supreme, money making, the hacks of all hacks, master hacks, penultimate, best, absolute, chief, cardinal, biggest, “the art of”...
...add nothing of value to the meaning of the message you are trying to deliver to your readers.
FIFTHHACK
TO A MONEY MAKING PRESENTATION
REWARDTHE EYE
OF YOUR READER AND...
DON'T
MAKE IT
GUESS
WHERE THE NEXT SENTENCE WILL START IN YOUR
NEXT SLIDE
OR
USE AN INEXPLICABLE
AMOUNT OF WORDS IN EACH SLIDE JUST BECAUSE YOU YOU
should fill all that white space
INSTEAD...
Try to visually keep the same starting point of your texts in each slide so that the eye of the reader expects it and thus follows your presentation easily.
And don't use the whole slide and cram it with words just because it's there. Focus on one isolated piece of slide and put your words there.
To do this fifth hack successfully, this presentation uses the blue frame perfectly.
The blue frame tells your reader the following: “You will fixate your attention within this frame and leave it here for the remainder of the presentation.”
That way, the reader can focus on following the content of the presentation and understanding the message easily.

SUMUP
...what you were talking in you presentation, in few sentences at
the end. Because...
...your presentation has a money making, background-redundant.
introduction...
Intriguing main body that does not use white space with unnecessary
stuff...
...and overall it is easy to follow by the eye.
Thank you!
