Reduce redundancies
Remove the words that mean the same thing and you’ll get to your point faster.
Example:
-
Before: Next quarter results for Q2 are available online.
-
After: Q2 results are online.
Clarity over complexity
Create key words to highlight the message. The rest can be in speaker notes.
Example:
Critical Repair Parts & Products Where and When You Need Them -> Repairs

Use data that matters
Grab attention with just numbers and speak to the rest.
Example:
2/3 of college students change their major at least once-> 66%
