@seansong I see, but the quality is not so good for business environment, especially the deck has a pic on it.
Yes, I can do it myself. This is an effective way of doing it because it gives you complete control over what kind of information you want to include in your presentation and how much content you want to present. But I'd suggest you use a template. It will save you time and make your presentation more professional.

Yes I usually create templates in Canva

@jerryton_surya So cool, you must be good at designing. Templates are not easy to design, especially for design stages like Canva.

Yes. It can take time, but any tool for creating presentations (PPT, Slides, Pitch, Keynote) will take time. The data collection and work that goes into the presentation is the hard part.

I was reading your article and wondered if you had considered creating an ebook on this subject. Your writing would sell it fast. You have a lot of writing talent. canyoning

Absolutely, but it takes several times as long

This is a good question. I can do it without a template, but the same PPT will be better for others after using a template.

@annachen_ Templates can improve your productively to push your work.

The problem is not the template; it's the draft and the process. A template is just icing on top. The wrong template could cause more problems.
