What is Presentation Design

Fresh Presentation Design for Slide Decks, PowerPoints, Prezi

For more than 25 years, Adrienne Folse and the designer team at Design the Planet have crafted innovative, quality slide decks that turn ordinary talks into unforgettable events. From conference halls in New Orleans to corporate boardrooms in Lafayette, LA, (and even a few in Japan) our presentation design services help leaders captivate audiences and drive results.

Why Invest in Professional Presentation Design?
A well‑designed deck acts like a visual soundtrack, amplifying your message with graphics, video, and storytelling flow. Great presentations:
01
Promote clarity guiding viewers through complex data.
02
Maintain believable consistency with your brand.
03
Highlight key takeaways through bold graphics and succinct copy.
04
Build emotional momentum with imagery, motion, and inspirational quotes.
05
Deliver a potent, memorable finale that sparks next steps.



When every slide is intentional, you gain confidence, your audience gains trust, and your ROI skyrockets. That’s a proven formula we’ve refined across hundreds of decks for Louisiana businesses and national brands alike.
Top 5 Things Every Powerful Slide Deck Should Do
1. Tell a Story
People remember narratives, not bullet lists.
2. Use Bold Graphics
High‑impact graphics and clean space keep attention locked.
3. Focus on One Idea per Slide
Too much text dilutes your presentation.
4. Embed Short Video
Motion adds energy and illustrates concepts faster.
5. Close with a Clear Call to Action
Make the next step obvious and irresistible.

Do’s and Don’ts for Presenters
Do
keep text minimal and readable from the back row.
Do
use trending visual styles sparingly for modern flair.
Do
rehearse with your final deck to nail pacing.
Don’t
read every word on screen—your voice should add value.
Don’t
overload with cheesy clip‑art—quality beats quantity.
Beyond Slides: Support Materials That Promote ROI
- Mini‑brochures that recap key points.

These extras extend the life of your talk, ensuring every minute on stage translates into measurable returns.

Unexpected Touches to Make Presentations Memorable

- Use a quick live poll to boost engagement.
- Hand out postcard‑sized vision statements for an inspirational takeaway.
- Sneak in a local flavor slide—maybe a “lagniappe” fact about Louisiana cuisine—to earn smiles.
