    Custom Neon Signs
    Neon signs have come a long way since their inception. Since neon was first used in signs, it has captured everyone’s imagination, and signs are ordered for business and personal use, custom made to meet one’s specific requirements.Many retail outlets invest in custom-made neon signs to let potential customers know what they do. These signs provide cost-effective adver

    5) Use the toggle off key: When you’re showing a visual to make a point, show the visual for a few seconds only, then toggle off while you elaborate the point. Getting the important information from the presenter rather than from a slide gives the audience a feeling that they’ve gotten a high return on the investment they made coming to listen to you. There is no law that requires you to leave slides on for the entire presentation, no ma

    Using Interview Advice in Your Job Search

    Don’t want to be known as the Power Point Murderer? Five pointed decisions will power your presentations. You’ll notice that these five techniques require only the basic features of power point.

    1) Graphics (illustrations, graphs, processes [NOT clip art]): these will be powerful when used to illustrate a point that is not expected. We don’t need confirmation of what we already know. We need to see a visual representation of what we don’t know or what is surprising. Are you advocating something totally new? Show a picture of it and talk about why it’s an idea that will make a difference.

    2) Pulling people together: using logos or other icons of various team members helps the audience visualize the breadth and depth of a team comprised of different entities. This is obvious in a prime-subs situation. It is also useful when a multi-department internal team is convened. Show each department surrounding the central goal. People then see at a glance who their partners are, and how they will work together towards the goal.

    3) Photos: Using photos of your own people, your own locations, and your own successes is stimulating and energizing. People like to recognize places and people, and are drawn into the content of the presentation when they do. While many companies have professionally made photos of their headquarters or products and equipment, presenters should snap a few pictures that will be meaningful to their specific audience. For example, take a picture of a person who won an award when you’re talking about goals for the coming year. Everyone will imagine themselves holding that award next year.

    4) The Future: Capture and illustrate visions and goals for the future. These are some ways that are very effective:

  • Show a photo of a competitor that you are planning to beat
  • Use a high-level graph to depict an increase from current numbers to future achievements
  • Show the results of a process you are implementing. Results may be higher customer satisfaction ratings, fewer complaints, increase speed of technology enhancements. Here’s where your understanding of why you do what you do can be turned into a visual. The presenter who does this is going to be memorable and inspiring.

    The Background on Background Checks
    In one of my past lives I held a Top Secret clearance as a Civil Service employee working for the Air Force. So I am familiar with background checks. But many job seekers are not.

    There are many very positive uses of power point slides and I coach my clients how to identify them and incorporate them into their presentations. The emphasis is on the power of the presenter—and that’s the point.
