Powerpoint Presentations – Promote Your Products by Using Steve Jobs' Presentation Method
Whenever there is a product launching ceremony presented by Steve Jobs - CEO and co-founder of Apple Inc., masses of people attended the iPhone and Mac Air products earlier, they were not just mesmerized by these cutting-edge Apple products; they also liked the chairman's way of presenting his products. Many presenters are inspired by the simplicity of his slide display that have caused some of them switched to iWork - a slide creation software for Apple users.
For those non-Apple users, you do not have to be disappointed if you could not use iWork.
You can still stick to use Powerpoint to launch or promote your products effectively to your future clients.
It is possible if you follow these simple steps:
Your audiences will be able to see your text-contents clearly together with proper font size used in your slide. Ideal font used in your slide display is Arial. It must have to be shadowed so that it is viewable on the dark-colored slide background. In order to have gradient effect on the dark-colored background, use the "Fill Effects" feature and choose your desirable shading style. In this case, it is better to choose the "horizontal" shading style.
You will see less text-contents in his slides as he mainly allows one title - which the font size is approximately 80-point size; in one slide. During the product launch, most of the elaboration based on these titles were not included along the slides. Some of the elaboration were simplified and located below the title text. In this case, size of these elaboration texts are preferable in 32-point size.
It has proven that adding icons into your slides able to increase easy viewing presentation for your audiences. Icons are like symbols and each of these symbols have their own distinctive meaning. If related icons are used, you do not have to over-emphasize much on your speech deliverance. People will be able to perceive the meaning quickly once they see your graphical slides. Normally, these icons are in PNG format. Use the "Set Transparent Color" tool to make the background of the icon transparent.
You can use either one icon/image or multiple images in one slide.
Allow your audiences know about your product features by putting it into a list. Simply use "text box" tool to include each and every product feature on your slide. For better enhancement, you can insert a picture along with the product feature list. This allows your audiences to experience the newly launched product for the very first time. If your audiences are able to experience the products easily, then selling the products to them will not be too difficult.
Based on this Apple's product launching ceremony, the stage set-up actually matches the dark-colored slide layout. The lights were focused on the presenter and the large screen on stage, so that the audiences' attention were directed to the stage. You must think of a way to measure your audiences' span in order to keep your audiences interested to your speech.

He isn’t saying that you should ignore it, but instead “dont be trapped by dogma.” It can still be present in your life, but it shouldn’t be the ‘driving force’ for everything you do.

He is a genius. He built apple computer at age 21. There are lots of hardware and software design involved. He's the first who pushed out the concepts of Windows and Networking into Personal computer (Macintosh). Microsoft later followed the ideas and further developed that.

Of course he owns a PC. That reminds him how shitty a product can be if you don’t put all your passion into your creation. Steve is brilliant.

Never heard of it mate.
Use an Anti-Virus program to detect it and then remove it.
Hope it fixes.

I think the way he talks is very charismatic and inspirational. This motivates his employees to perform. Also, he is very passionate about his work and computing/media field, this enables him to quickly transfer creativity into a product..

I understand that personal experiences are priceless. I was simply pointing out that learning is built on past learning. So it is with other people defining “truths” or dogmas…we should not ignore these just because we did not personally discover them. If electricity had not been discovered, (or if Jobs had ignored its discovery), he would not have been able to create the GUI or Mac.

Except for 'instant fame' (for example, Susan Boyle and similar), success requires a lot of time and effort. On average, it takes seven years to become an overnight success. Steve Jobs and his partner put in a lot of time building computers in the family garage (or equivalent). Bill Gates did as well.
They also had a few contacts (people they knew, or their families knew) that could give them a couple of breaks that the average person is not likely to have. That's not knocking their success, by the way; they made use of those contacts, as well as putting in the hard work to make their eventual companies successful. If you think they had it easy, look at their biographies.
Most people who graduate from college and university will never put in the effort of college drop-outs like Gates and Jobs. They will stagnate in jobs working for people already in power (or rich) and always be also-rans.
But don't take that to mean that you need to be a drop-out to succeed – most drop-outs will fare a lot more badly than graduates, and finish up in real dead-end jobs.

what does that have to do with anything. It’s appropriate *stigma* that he’s revolutionized the world. The best things you learn in life aren’t on paper. Never forget that.

@jesserobertray
He was not saying to ignore them, he was saying no to live your life based on other people’s thinking, Instead think out of the box and make a difference. It’s a must if you want to be someone like him. It’s a requirement if you wants to go that extra mile and achieve something BIG i mean really big
