Step 4: Meeting to Discuss Presentation Content. You will hold a one-on-one Zoom meeting to tell us about the specific requirements and objectives of your presentation. They will help you identify your core message, analyze your audience, and identify the story/flow of your presentation. The content strategist will request any additional information and documentation required for writing your presentation. They will go over the structure of your presentation. They will provide feedback on the best structure so that your presentation will resonate with your audience. You may do more than one meeting based on what your needs are.

*Handouts. If you need handouts for your presentation, discuss with the copywriter what you want included on the handouts.

Step 5: Content Writing. The content strategist writes your presentation content in accordance with the details provided by you during the meeting(s). They will write an outline for your presentation showing the flow of your presentation with all the text that will be included in your PowerPoint presentation.

Step 6: Delivery of the Content. The content strategist will deliver the first draft of the presentation content for your approval.

Step 7: Feedback on Content. You can either give the feedback within the email sent to you or you can request a meeting to discuss any revisions of your content. If everything looks great you can reply back that you are ready for your presentation to be designed.

Step 8: Content Revision. The content strategist will make adjustments based on your feedback and send the revised outline of your presentation. You are allowed 2 rounds of revision without increasing your estimated cost.

Design Steps

Step 9: Complete Presentation Design Preference Form. The form will be sent to your email for you to complete so the designer understands your design needs and submission of any project assets (logo, color preferences, images, video etc.). If the designer has any additional clarification questions, the designer will contact you.

*Tip. If you want video to be included in your presentation, it is best to download the video so that it can be embedded into your presentation to ensure smooth playback on the day of your presentation. Don’t want to be unprepared!

For Video PowerPoint-You will need to pay an additional fee for the audio and/or background music before it is added to the presentation.

Step 10: Design Presentation. The designer will create the first draft of your presentation.

Step 11: Feedback on design. We will send you images and/or video of your presentation for your review. You can either give the feedback within the email that is sent or request a meeting to discuss any revisions of your design. If everything looks great you can reply back that you are ready to receive the final draft of your presentation.

Step 12: Revision. Designer will make any revisions you requested. You are allotted unlimited revisions within a specified timeframe after which you cannot request more revisions. Refer to your design agreement for the specified timeframe. If you decide that you want to take the design in a completely different direction than what you originally stated, this will incur an additional fee due to the additional time needed to complete the presentation.

*Handouts. Our graphic designer will begin designing your handouts for your presentation for you to review as they are wrapping up the design of your presentation. You will be sent the handouts and your presentation for you to review. You are allotted unlimited revisions for the handouts within a specified timeframe.
