The company bought a sponsorship table (which I’m sure was expensive) and had nicely-designed brochures laid out on the table, along with a monitor displaying the software. So, when you get to the end of the sales process — in this case, buying a sponsorship table, traveling to the conference, printing brochures, and so on — shouldn’t the PowerPoint slides look as good as everything else? A story.

If you’ve thought about branding at all, you’ve applied it to your website and maybe to a printed brochure. Over and over again, I see small companies with websites, brochures, and products that look professional and have a unified look. Do you have a small service-based business? Perhaps you’re a coach, consultant, trainer, author, or speaker. Branding is as important for a small company as it is for a big one — maybe even more so.

A printed brochure is branded. Part of the reason is that websites and brochures are designed by professional designers and presentations are often created by presenters who are anything but that. When I do corporate training or public webinars, I usually ask attendees to submit a couple of slides. After covering basic principles of how to transform presentations (and the reasons behind those principles), I show makeovers of the submitted slides.

More than PowerPoint...

MARCH 3, 2014

Your brochures let them know what’s going on, where. Your “Welcome” mat may be a visual cliché. You may think it’s de rigueur — but is it really making your audience feel welcomed? We’ve reached a point where merely saying or writing “welcome” doesn’t even mean anything. It’s too generic to be useful or inviting. That’s why you don’t see many websites with a welcome page anymore.

 A client actually used the word "reimagine" for a brochure. That unbearable lightness of being.  The Buddhists call it "groundlessness" and describe the state as descending in air without a parachute and with no ground in sight.  Well, we content-providers better get used to it.  Clients really do want us to reimagine their communications and hand them what they didn't expect but need. In short, not taking a risk is too much of a risk.

This technique could be used to graphically display a particular theme in a presentation or to make a point about (for example) the content of a marketing brochure, customer service letter or the CEO's speech. In many presentations, a thousand words is what it feels like as slide after bullet point-laden slide goes by. When I teach and consult on how to use PowerPoint effectively, I always encourage people to ditch the bullet points wherever feasible and replace them with visual images.

The value of online services like Dog Vacay comes from its ability to matchmake.  Essentially it screens and connects pet parents needing to board their animal companions with care-givers.  Those parents could care less about the technology.  However, the technology which allows the care-giver to upload photos and videos of Fido is, of course, a competitive advantage.

When you display a brochure in the Adobe PDF Reader, it usually opens showing the full page, which is usually far too small to be able to read or explain. Your PDF document will usually have multiple pages, since it is usually a brochure that you are showing. If you want to give people a context of where they are in a multi-page document by showing facing pages as if they had opened a brochure on their desk, select the icon that looks like two pages beside each other.
