Killer Mistake # 1:

Facts, Facts, Facts!

Page 4: Most common presentation mistakes

Mistake: Include lots of facts in your

presentations.

The more facts you have, the smarter you seem and the

more persuasive you will be.

Page 5: Most common presentation mistakes

Truth is…

facts are boring and bland.

If you simply spit out numbers instead of showing your audience how those

statistics impact them, you will drown your audience in sea of numbers.

Killer Mistake # 2:

Always use Powerpoint

Page 7: Most common presentation mistakes

Mistake: When people think of a

presentation, the first thing that usually comes to mind

is Powerpoint!

Page 8: Most common presentation mistakes

Truth is…

You don’t always have to use Powerpoint.

You should use Powerpoint only if you have graphs, charts and pictures to show your audience.

Powerpoint should be an aid…not your entire presentation!

Using complicated, technical words

Page 10: Most common presentation mistakes

Mistake: Use lots of complicated

jargon…because It makes you sound smarter.

Page 11: Most common presentation mistakes

Truth is…using complicated jargon may make you sound

smarter, but it will isolate your audience.

If your audience doesn’t understand what you’re saying, then your presentation is a complete

failure…

Aim for a conversational style of speaking which explains ideas in the clearest, easiest-to-

understand way.
