Conferences / Speeches?

  conference?

  questions?

  to attend?

  important new issues?

Client Communications?

• How do you connect with your clientele?

PowerPoint Presentations?

• In 2005, 30 million PowerPoint Presentations
  were given every day.
• - Microsoft, 2005
• The entire presentation (info message
  speaker) should be the content not just the
  slides.
• How is that content stored and here is it now?
