Let’s Call Today a Win
Gave a presentation at Custom Building Products today! I’ve thoroughly enjoyed my 6 1/2 years of contract work with them. Just feels good to walk into a client’s office and be greeted with big smiles and warm “hey how yea doing” comments.
I think the presentation went well. I say this because, well, no one walked out…ha! And because during the 2nd part it seemed that creative juices were flowing by way of comments and analytical questions. By the 3rd part there was collaboration in defining what they needed and wanted to know, in order to take that next step in developing their digital product offerings budget in 2011.
I split it up into 3 parts — initial high level followed by a deep dive into analytics (for their flagship site) and closed with a quick “What the Web Thinks About Your Site” overview.
I’ve recently found that this book “Slide:ology” by Nancy Duarte is helpful in polishing a presentation. I particularly like the part about “Ingredients of a Great Slide.” Worth picking up if you want to add polish to a presentation.
