For $650 CAD, get a redesign concept that will enhance your credibility and amplify your impact. One week turnaround.
You choose the slides you want optimized.
I elevate the clarity and professionalism of your PowerPoint.
Sometimes your slide deck looks like everyone else’s
When you’re presenting to decision-makers, potential funders, clients or the public, you’ve got a time-limited opportunity to get your message across.
You know your slides matter, but you never seem to have the time or resources to polish them. You worry that your presentation doesn’t reflect the high quality of your organization or project. You wonder about the impression you’re making.
What if you could get visually appealing slides that not only communicated your key messages but also boosted your credibility?
For $650 CAD, I will optimize the most important slides in your PowerPoint, and in one week you’ll get a redesign concept that takes your presentation from the usual to the user-friendly.
Go beyond what’s basic and illuminate what’s important
When you complete the intake form, you’ll be able to tell me which slides you want me to focus on.
You might need a revamp of your cover, closing and transition slides. Perhaps you’re struggling to design an appropriate infographic for a key concept. Maybe you want help with refining the structure and flow of your narrative.
As a writer, editor, designer and communications strategist, I will do more than make your deck pretty.
I will optimize your chosen slides to clearly communicate what you’re trying to say in a way that resonates with the people you’re saying it to. I will make sure the redesign concept supports your overarching brand or business strategy. And I will help you see opportunities for improving your future presentations.
This service is for those who:
- Don’t have the time, expertise or a dedicated comms shop to level up their slide decks
- Aren’t sure if their presentations accurately reflect the credibility of their organization or the high quality of their work
- Want help clarifying what they’re trying to say and how they’re saying it
- Want engaging slides that effectively communicate their message but don’t have a large budget

Think of this as a pilot project
Have you ever paid for a design project where the end result isn’t what you hoped for, but you have to fork out even more money if you want anything changed?
The Optimize Your Slides package ensures you won’t get stuck with a hefty bill or a final product that doesn’t actually work for you.
Buying this redesign concept is a low cost, minimal risk opportunity to work with someone new and experiment with new ways of presenting information.
I’m not only a designer, I’m also an expert wordsmith and communications strategist.
This means I will optimize your slides with consideration for the language, the visuals and your overarching brand or business objectives. Instead of simply “making them pretty,” I will make them credible and engaging so your voice has impact!
Even if you decide you don’t want to use my concept, while working with me, you will gain new ideas for how to effectively communicate in your presentations.
FAQ
How many slides will you optimize?
It depends on your slide deck!
In the intake form, you get to choose what you want me to focus on.
Which slides and how many I optimize depends on your chosen area of focus and my strategic assessment of the kinds of improvements that will have the biggest impact.
For example, if you select “consistency in words and visuals” as your top priority, I might edit every single heading in your deck so each one is clearly worded and has the same style and formatting as all the others.
If you choose “branded to properly reflect our organization’s identity,” I might apply your colour palette and font to the entire deck or I might completely redesign a few different slides within your deck.
I don’t use PowerPoint. Can you give me a redesign concept in [Google slides, Prezi, Canva or some other application]?
This service is currently only available if you use PowerPoint.
Due to the effort required to become proficient in multiple applications, I’ve chosen to focus on the software used by the majority of my clients.
However, if enough people ask me for a redesign concept in another application, I’ll add that as an option as well! Email me to let me know what you typically use for presentations.
What if I don’t have a brand or don’t like my current brand?
You don’t need to have professional branding or a branding guidelines document to purchase this service — but you do need to have a detailed example of the visual style you want me to apply. This can be another branded document that features the colours and fonts you like.
If you want a new visual identity created from scratch, I’d be happy to refer you to a graphic designer who specializes in branding. Email me with details about what you’re looking for.
Why would I pay you to do this when I can just use AI or find someone on Fiverr?
If you have the time and energy to manage a third party and triple-check their work for accuracy, and you have communications expertise, then Fiverr or generative AI might be a good option for you.
However, the Optimize Your Slides package might be a better option if you want to:
- Offload the thinking, coordination and quality assurance to a professional
- Hire a reliable and responsive human
- Benefit from the expertise of a long-time communicator and designer
- Work with someone who thinks strategically
Can you create a concept like this for my report [or fact sheet or manual or other document]?
Yes, absolutely!
I’d be happy to provide you with a quote for other documents you want redesigned. Email me with details about what you’re looking for and a copy of the document you need to refresh.
Can you redesign my entire presentation?
Definitely!
If you purchase the Optimize Your Slides package and then hire me to optimize the entire deck, the $650 fee you paid will be deducted from the final cost.
If you don’t need a concept first, I’m happy to provide a custom quote to transform your entire presentation. Send me an email with your PowerPoint file and details about what you’re looking for.
