What Can You Use PowerPoint For?
You can use PowerPoint to create all sorts of presentations:
⻬ Business presentations: More than anything else, people use PowerPoint
to create presentations intended for the boardrooms and conference
halls of the corporate world, where people of all sorts come to see and
hear content. And as those in corporate corridors have discovered, the
most important thing is to have a PowerPoint presentation ready for
every proposal and product — and I should add sales and service to
that list!
⻬ Homework projects: Don’t be flabbergasted if your kid asks you to help
create a presentation for school. Or maybe you are a kid reading this
and can’t understand what’s so great about creating a PowerPoint pre-
sentation for a project. Schools all over the world are discovering the
virtues of PowerPoint — the program lets you assemble all sorts of
media, such as images, text, and sound, in one document. And think
about the amount of paper and ink you save by replacing that project
poster with a PowerPoint presentation!
