    Powerpoint creating business

    Hello everyone! I am brand new to this site but read from it from time to time so i am familiar. For the past couple months I have been thinking about creating a business that involves my skills and something I enjoy doing. I thought to myself, I have seen so many awful PowerPoint presentations that make even the smartest of people look like they don't have a clue. I know how important PowerPoints can be to a student, an entrepreneur, or even an everyday working man/woman, and I think if they are lacking the skills necessary, they would pay to have one created for them. My business would create the PowerPoint, and cue cards to say for each slide. Keep in mind that this is just an idea that was thought of recently. Does anyone here have good PowerPoint of presentation skills and would like to start talking about starting a business up with this idea. I have more ideas about what we would sell but I don't want to give it all away . PM me if your interested or you want to talk about it. Thanks!

    It's a good concept. Corporate organizations have to give presentations and proposals all the time.

    Thanks for the response. I am designing the site on dreamweaver right now. I am not the best web designer though so i might have some troubles. Anyone have any ideas or suggestions for this business idea?

    i would be a little bit uneasy about pouring too much time or money into this one. 99% of people involved in business have a good understanding of how to use powerpoint.

    Maybe you can find the few companies that dont?

    Or possibly just create company templates?

    Idk. I just think that you are going to have a tough time finding customers.

    Keep us updated on how it goes, good luck.

    Here's my idea, you should get a powerpoint to flash converter because some of your clients would want to share their presentation online, and flash would be the best format to compatible with web sharing. You could try articulate's product, which can create wonderful flash effect, though a little bit expensive. Also, there's tool as wondershare ppt2flash, which enables you to convert powerpoint to flash with a click. All the animation would be retained if this is what you concerned about.
