Okay. Okay. It is a cheap trick to use a slide like this to get your attention. But I think it works.
The point is, what we show can speak volumes before we even open our mouths. A humorous image, a quality photo, a well-thought out and drawn graph sets the audience up to look for quality and professionalism in your presentation. A good client of mine has called this the “subliminal effect” — it starts things off proving to your viewers just how good you are without you having to use the words.
Avoid amateurish art, design, cartoons and photos. Go for quality and send a powerful message.
