Checklist for designing a visually appealing presentation

Presentations are vital in business communications. Whether it is delivered in person, online, or as a mail attachment, your slide deck is a crucial aspect of your presentation performance. While presenting an idea or pitching a project proposal, a visually appealing deck will give you an edge over others.

A well-designed slide deck can make your presentation lively and engaging. A visually impressive presentation helps you enhance your story, convey your content, and intrigue your audience. But you must choose visual aids that are appropriate to both your content and your target audience. The right visuals can boost the credibility of your content.

According to researchers at Georgia State University, imagery is an effective way to enhance memory. The ultimate goal of any presentation is to educate or inspire your audience. This can be achieved if your deck is aesthetically appealing, as effective visuals make an impression. It is essential for a presentation to not only sound great, but look great as well.
