Presentation Design

You are here: Home / Presentation Design

Let’s work together to redesign an existing presentation or to create a new one from the ground up.

Creating a new presentation


If you have an idea for a presentation but don’t know where to start, we can work together to make it stunning! Using my proven presentation design methodology, we work together to develop your main messages, your stories, and your slides.

Here’s the Process:

  1. Download and complete my Presentation Brainstorming Worksheet to consolidate your ideas in once place.
  2. Our first meeting is a conversation where I learn more about your presentation goals are, who your audience is, and what you want to communicate.
  3. We create an outline of your presentation that creates a roadmap for the audience journey. If this is a remote presentation, we develop ways to ensure audience engagement and include them in the outline.
  4. I’ll create a Presentation Map, which is a storyboard/mockup of your presentation.
  5. After you’ve approved the Presentation Map, I’ll start on the slide design. Working with your own presentation template or designing a new one, I’ll start with a few layouts. Once you’ve approved these, I’ll create all of the presentation slides.

Let’s bring your presentation ideas to life!

Overhauling an existing presentation

Some presentations are like Frankenstein’s monster, created from a mishmash of slides from various places. Presentations like these often don’t look good, since they’ve been designed by a multitude of people. And they can lose focus because slides are separated from their original context. If your presentation is getting out of hand, is too big, doesn’t look right, or isn’t getting the results you want, it’s time for a presentation overhaul!

We work together to determine what’s important and what isn’t. We figure out what your main presentation goals are. We restructure the presentation to better reach those goals. Then I redesign the slides, creating a new template or using your own.

Let’s fix that presentation!

Don’t take my word for it…

I’m de-awfulizing my slides

I’m in the process of de-awfulizing my training slides based on knowledge I received from a particular person. Of course, I’m talking about you!

Bill Williams
Trainer / Boy Scouts of America

Appreciate her knowledge

Laura has a great understanding of presentation techniques such as the proper use of color, layouts, symmetry, etc. She has contributed guest articles to my Indezine.com site and I appreciate her knowledge of PowerPoint and presenting techniques.

Our best meeting ever

I wanted to thank you for all your help. We’ve had great feedback from the meeting – [PVP founders] Jon and Terry have repeatedly said it was our best ever. The work you did on the presentation was excellent. It was great working with you again, and I look forward to more projects.

Don MacKenzie
CFO / Polaris Venture Partners

A completely different level

If we were as good at PowerPoint as you are, we would have had fun with this project, too. It was awesome to work with you! Your effort on such short notice was truly appreciated, and your work is on a completely different level from what we could have done ourselves.

Julie Trottier
Executive Assistant / Eloqua

A successful presentation

My presentation was very successful, and the PowerPoint slides that you prepared for me contributed significantly to this success. They added greatly to my confidence as I stood up to deliver the presentation. I was well aware that they would be experienced as highly professional and that the images would remain with audience members long after the evening was over.

Principal / MJ Campbell Associates

The best presentation

This is the best presentation I’ve seen at OSA. Thank you very much for your time and help!

Cleaner, more memorable slides

I love your advice and the way you use graphics! It makes for cleaner, more memorable slides.
