- Wall posters or banners for the conference or training room
- Fun gifts like mugs and T-Shirts or a reusable carry bag
Handouts
Handouts before, during and after your presentation spark memory. Our handouts are not just attractive, they use the principles of good ID (interaction design) and learning theory.
We offer:
- Simple Word-based handouts on a branded template so you can keep it updated yourself
- Fun, suitable icebreakers to relax everyone, and engage fro the start
- A quiz reminds allows people to assess their own progress – and maybe win rewards!
- Spark discussions and breakouts with scenarios
- Lots of graphics, photos and drawings – we’ll brainstorm a theme to tie it all together
- Activities get people to chat and laugh. Maybe it’s paper to fold, or a line drawing to colour in!
- A feedback form
- Links to a website or more videos – maybe via a QR code!
- Turn instructions into sales scripts for conversation simulations.
- Take PDFs online with a clickable index, table of contents and links.
Digital Catalogues
If you visit international buyers and retailers, a QR Code gives instant access to your catalogue when the buyer wants to see something. A QR code can go to WHATEVER format works best for that buyer – PDF, slideshow, video, audio…
The QR Code link is an example. Althyrea is a client with a Shopify website, but she needs a “Look Book” to take around to retailers and fashion buyers. Buyers are busy – they don’t respond to emails. To get their attention, you have to get a physical appointment at their office in New York, or London, or Milan.
Instead of Adobe InDesign for the catalogue, I took a different approach. I recommended that we use PowerPoint.
Yes, PowerPoint! 😲
Because this is an online store with limited production runs. Availability changes daily.
I designed the initial PowerPoint templates and custom pages, as well as the first range. Now the client can update herself. When a new product is ready, she pushes a button to get a choice of design templates, clicks to add photos that are automatically fitted and cropped, and types her text.
Whenever she travels, I turn her “Look Book” into a PDF, interactive slideshow or video to add to her website. And she has a QR code to each type of catalogue. Point and click. It’s on her buyer’s phone.
Would this method work well for YOUR product range?
