✅ Content. ✅ Branding. ✅ Graphics. ✅ "Remember to pause!" in your slide notes. But *something's missing* in your slide deck.

Fix up those final issues with a comprehensive, eye-for-detail review covering every aspect of your presentation, from animation to color to internal notes. This service includes expert level review of charts and tables to ensure your numbers are accurate and their presentation is crystal clear.

This scope covers decks of 20 slides and fewer.

What's included

Cleaned Up Slides

I work from your existing slide deck to make dozens of tweaks, removing distractions to let your content shine. This includes: Text boxes aligned, images consistently bordered, footers fixed, backgrounds accessibly colored, words correctly spelled, headers beautifully placed, data clearly presented, slide dimensions adapted to your presentation platform, brand standards universally applied.

Template / "Slide Master"

Easily add new slides without concern for losing the design. If your slide master or template aren't in line with the deck itself, I'll resolve that and make sure the slides match the slide master (and vice versa). As a bonus, you can use that new slide master, Google Slides template or .potx file to create brand new presentations.

File Format Conversion

Have you ever opened a presentation only to see jumbled text, disappearing fonts and nothing where you left it? Avoid embarrassing format issues by converting your slides in advance. Conversions can be done to/from Google Slides, Keynote, Microsoft PowerPoint and more.

Yes. Let me know whether you'd like them embedded or linked to the data source. If the latter, send me the data source too. I'd also like to know a little about your audience: are they data savvy? what decisions are they making with this data? what do they expect to see?

All of them.

Yes. Subtle consistencies add up to give your audience a feeling of coherence, vision and trust. These can make the difference in funding, votes, approvals, persuasion and other critical factors affecting your mission and bottom line.

The scope of this specific service is moving things around that already exist. I am happy to discuss an additional fee for added scope.

Yes, I would love to do this for you. Accessibility means everyone will be able to take in your content without undue barriers. Please let me know the audience and how they'll engage (live presentation? huge conference room? online?) and I'll audit each slide according to best practices for that channel.
