A Cup of Coffee to Presenting Your Coolness

As Seth Godin would say, “if you want to be seen as different, then you actually have to be different.”

If you really want to stand out – really want to differentiate yourself from the competition and solidify your personal brand of coolness – you have to step it up a notch when presenting your unbelievably awesome, complex ideas.

Say good-by to the same old

And that means saying goodbye to the same-old-same-old Power Point presentation.  Don’t get me wrong – Power Point is an invaluable tool and completely appropriate for almost any business situation.

But it’s linear.  And your ideas are multifaceted.  Isn’t there a way (outside of interpretive dance) to present your ideas in a 3-dimensional manner – just like they appear in your head?

Skip to…Prezi, the zooming presentation editor.

Creating a Prezi presentation allows your audience to see your overall story line, and follow along with the components of each point.  Plus – it’s just totally cool looking.

You can keep it private or make it public to the world.  You can even embed your Prezi into your blog.  Like this:
