Getting good at designing PPT slides?
Any advice from experienced analysts on here about how to design good looking PowerPoint slides?
Just started as a first year analyst (remote) and I’m working on a CIP and to be honest, my slides look terrible.
I get mock-ups from my associate and try to follow them, but my slides just don’t end up looking that good. There’s another analyst on my deal who I send my ugly slides too and he makes them look way better, but that’s not sustainable in the long run.
I just feel like I don’t have a good eye for design and struggle with little stuff like colors, logo sizes, etc and can’t seem to figure it out, and it ends up being these minor tweaks that make it look way better that I just seem to miss. Also feel like in normal times I could look over someone’s shoulder and learn how they do it, but it’s hard remotely.
Any tips on this? I feel like I just haven’t used PPT enough to get good at it but I hate sending in a work product that looks mediocre.
Use decks from online for Inspiration, there are a bunch out there.
Also all ppt materials that are made at the shop I’m at are either recycled or tweaked past CIMs, teasers, MPs, etc. I’m sure you could find a ton of old materials/slides for the same slides you’re working on now.
I try to rip slides from old CIPs but it keeps happening where I need to adjust it by adding more/less bullets, another rows of logos, etc and then I just ruin the slide and can’t seem to make it look good anymore. I’m sure if I dug more I could find a slide that had the right alignment for me to not need to adjust it, but then I feel like I’d be spending hours looking old CIPs for each slide I make
