Presenting Without Powerpoint

Presentations are part of every industry in some form or another. Whether it’s an informational presentation in a meeting, a sales presentation for clients, or a presentation on research findings, the presentation itself is a time-honored tradition with the potential to inform, engage, and persuade an audience.

However, in recent years the presentation has become an object of disinterest and boredom. The culprit? Powerpoint and other similar slideshow software. This isn’t to say that these slideshows are not useful, because they are. However, many presenters have become reliant on reading off of slideshows cued up on a digital projector and offering little other substance to the audience. Again, slideshows are a part of any good presentation, but they aren’t its foundation.

Engaging your audience requires more than just slides on a screen. Tangible visual aids can connect you with your audience in a way that reading off of slides cannot. Brochures and pamphlets provide portable visual and textual aids that can succinctly summarize a presentation, and which audience members can take with them after the presentation is over. For more in-depth presentations, small softcover bound books can hold annual reports or prospectuses, giving the audience the ability to browse at their own pace in a handsome and professional volume.

Advantage Book Binding offers a number of services that can help your next presentation break free from the monotony of slideshows. From brochures and pamphlets to professional binding and shrink wrapping, our products can engage your audience on a new level and leave them with something to remember you by.

Advantage Book Binding has been in the book binding business since 1985, when we were founded on the principle “we do a quality book on time.” Since then we’ve seen plenty of changes both in and out of the industry. While some have sounded the death knell for books and other physical media, we believe that the fact that we continue to be an industry leader into the 21st century is a testament not only to our longevity as a company but to that of our craft. We think it’s important to keep books and physical media on the shelves, which is why we dedicate ourselves to providing you with the highest quality book binding and post press services available.
