Can anyone give me a great Power Point Presentation on any Equipment. I just need to know how we put power point presentation together to include Application, Feature, Specifications, Packing Material, Operations, Illustration for Operating instruction, and Troubleshooting. My ideal equipment for this presentation is the Chemical Injection Pumps but I do not mind to see any other Power Point Presentation that is intended to be intuitive and persuasive. Thank you.

This is a very important company presentation for our new product. Please help if you can, I appreciate it.
 
You are the only one who knows your audience and what will make them interested. I would generally suggest you visit websites of your competitors or even your own company's website to see what features are being considered important.

Some pointers for the general style of the presentation:

> Titles should present an argument, e.g., "We have the fastest processor," or something like that, with the bullets explaining why that's true.

> Avoid "horse" charts, e.g., "here's a horse" which results in a yawn and a "so what?"

> Your charts are intended to answer the basic question, "Why Us?" e.g., why should they care about or want you or your product.

> Data charts or graphs should likewise have a clear conclusion as a title

> I personally think "message" boxes are a waste, particularly if your chart title winds up being "Our product features" YAWN! Make your titles the message boxes; "Our Product Solves Your Problems In Less Time and Money"

> Limit bullets to no more than about 6

> PRACTICE, PRACTICE your presentation until you can do it blindfolded. Your audience can easily sense uncertainty. Your audience will sense your confidence and knowledgeability.

> DO NOT read from the chart, DO NOT maintain eye contact with the chart. Maintain eye contact with your audience. Look at the chart only to make sure you're on the right chart or to point out a salient feature to your audience.

> Don't be afraid of pointing out specification errors. Don't call your customer idiots, but simply explain why your product meets the end user requirement; by providing performance better than required. It's a delicate game, but some customers are EXTREMELY grateful and impressed with someone who really and thoroughly understands the requirements.

If you google .ppt pump you will get a bunch of Power Point files. Some may be relevant.
