Free Internet Tools for a More Engaging Presentation

You have planned your speech, and gathered what you need to say. Now, how are you going to present it?

How you design your presentation can determine the success of the message you want to share with your audience. This includes your visuals, from photos to graphs and charts.

According to a study from Microsoft Corp, people lose concentration after only eight seconds. The information in this week’s email can help you create engaging presentations that enhance the overall experience for your audience.

Here are three free tools you help with the look and feel of your presentation

Canva

Create presentations that look professional. What if you don’t have a designer or a design background? That’s where the online platform Canva can come to the rescue. The site offers templates for creating presentations, infographics, and charts. Plus, you will have access to over one million stock images.

Powtoon

Add a short video in your presentation to grab your audience’s attention. Powtoon is a video platform for creating short informational videos. You can drop in short video clips, photos, and add a voiceover.

Visme

Make your presentation more visually appealing. Visme is an online tool that lets you create eye-catching visual content and infographics. You have access to over 100 fonts and millions of free images. Additionally, Visme provides you with tools to take data and transform it into an interactive visual for your presentation.

Keynote, Google Slides, and of course PowerPoint are the standard programs used to make powerful presentations. The challenge to you is to get creative and break the conventional – use slides that grab an audience’s attention for longer. If you can, create your own – but deck designs are readily available on Canva, as well as Slide Hunter, Slides Go, and MANY, MANY, other sites.

Do your research. Make some tweaks. Take your presentations to another level! The tools are out there, go see what you can do with them!
