Optimize Recurring Report Slides

Reports that are repeated in a presentation can quickly become tedious.

Presentations filled with dry facts and figures that are presented the same way throughout will leave your audience bored and uninspired. To avoid this, consider the following strategies to save time while enhancing the visual appeal of your reports:

Design Eye-Catching Mock-ups

Design an eye-catching mock-up of slides that can be filled with different content whenever you need. This way, you don’t have to worry about layout and formatting every time!

Utilize Effective Visuals

Effective visuals arouse the interest of your audience. Images and graphics highlight important core statements and allow the viewer to clearly understand your key points.

Organize Content Visually

Compile your content in a visually appealing way by dividing information, text, and graphics into four rectangles. This approach streamlines your presentation and makes it easier for the audience to follow along.

Advantages of Ready-Made Report Slides

Ready-made report slides offer several advantages for both you and your audience:

• Important information is optimally presented.
• Images pique the audience’s attention, providing an efficient way to capture their focus.
• Using different colors directs the viewer’s eye to what you consider essential, allowing you to highlight specific content effectively.

Mock-Up Suggestions

Try this for your next mock-up:

• At the top left, use a pictogram that illustrates the current topic. This is particularly useful when the same topic is discussed over several slides. Your audience will immediately recognize the pictogram, making it easier for them to keep track during your presentation. You can find pictograms for various topics under the Icon category in our shop.

  • Business Icons
  • Icons Collection

• At the top right, formulate the topic of the slide as a question or key information.

• The bottom left provides space for additional information, such as facts, figures, comments, or ratings.

• You can add important information such as deadlines, goals, tasks, or areas of responsibility to the bottom right. If necessary, you can also use icons that quickly display the status of individual items.

Presenting in a Tile Structure

• Draw four rectangles by using the shapes on the Insert and Shapes tab. Arrange them in the way you want. The example above illustrates this concept.
• Choose different colors for your rectangles. To do this, click on a rectangle and select Shape Fill and Shape Outline from the menu.
• Finally, add text, pictograms, and/or icons to complete your design.
