  7. Font and Text If the audience can read the slide, then you become unnecessary. The audience can gain everything necessary from the slide itself, and because the audience is busy gaining everything necessary from the slide itself, you become a mere side attraction. Nobody is looking at you – they’re all reading the slide, seeing what you’ll say before you say it! Keep it to bullet points. Don’t make yourself unnecessary. *note to self: delete this slide before presenting!

  9. Extensiveness • Keep the number of slides down • Keep things succinct – it shouldn’t stand alone • Make it useful • 5 slides = maybe too few
