How do you create professional PowerPoint slides? It comes down to small things. Most of which we don't notice when we watch presentations we love. We know we like them, but often we don't quite know why. I've broken it down into 5 PowerPoint tips which I'll cover in this video.
🖌️ Key Design Tips:
▪️ Visualize Your Data: Simplify complex data with clear, concise charts. This keeps your audience focused on your message rather than getting lost in numbers.
▪️ Use White Space Effectively: Avoid clutter. White space, which can be any solid color or blurred background, helps direct attention to your key points.
▪️ Leverage Design Ideas: Utilize PowerPoint's Design Ideas feature for quick, AI-powered slide improvements, especially if you're short on time or design skills.
▪️ Opt for Scalable Vector Graphics (SVGs): Use SVGs instead of raster images like JPGs or PNGs to avoid pixelation when resizing.
▪️ Apply the Rule of Thirds: Borrow this photography technique to enhance visual appeal. Position key elements at the intersection points of a divided grid for a balanced look.

1. Visualization, Don't let the audience focus on reading 2. White space, don't clutter, make spacious, less is more 3. Instant design ideas of office 365 4. Scalable vector graphics: careful resizing, use SVG over jpg to avoid pixelation 5. Apply rule of third: (my personal favourite)3 vertical and horizontal lines intersect and make the power points, elements should be placed on these points

I agree, these video tips alone helped me finish editing a large project I was having some issues with. I love the way she makes it so easy to understand. I'm somewhat new to PowerPoint and the whole Microsoft suite premium so these tips have been incredibly helpful not just in ppt but throughout all the programs! Thank you Leila for sharing your wisdom to help us little people excel in the field :-)

Love the simplicity of your video.. Your channel is my go-to for Microsoft Office tutorials. The Design Ideas feature is the most common element I use in PowerPoint. I also use the Variants section to change the colors and create section breaks between slides to use different themes/variants within the same presentation. Rule of Thirds will take it to the next level.

Great training. I have been using 1 through 4, and learned 5, I did not about the rule. Looking forward to use it next time. Design ideas and MS PPT icons have been my "best secrets" for my slides. I got a lot of compliments and people think there is a lot of work on them when is actually Office working for you. Is because they look so nice and appealing to the eyes. I need to learn more about "less is more" probably choose 1 or 2 words vs a short phrase to show a key point. thank you. I always learn something valuable in your channel.
