Make A Folder Specifically For Storing These Slides
Making a dedicated folder to store pre-made template slides should help in finding them when they’re needed. Name the folder appropriately and keep it in a place that is easy to access. Also, make sure to give your files proper names if they don’t already have em.
Open A File Before Working on It
Before you start making any new slides, make sure to open the file in PowerPoint and look at it in slide show mode. Doing this will help you see what type of content these slides were originally designed for.
You might feel that you need to customize and modify some of these slides to suit your needs. Now, exit slide show mode and get back to editing mode.
Notice how the slides have been put together. If you are into advanced editing, you might find something in the speaker’s notes to help guide you.
Copy the Slide In Your Presentation
Copy and paste the slide to your presentation. You will see that the presentation adopts the colors of your main presentation’s theme. From here, you can edit sample text and add more boxes. You can even find and replace fonts to keep things consistent.
You can also change any images that don’t fit with your main presentation.
Finalize The Presentation
Preview the changes you’ve made in slide show view. Look at everything and make sure that you’re happy with the results. Make small changes if needed.
