Powerful everyday phrases
Have you ever imagined that the phrases you use every day can help you visualize your business ideas and concepts in a presentation?
Just take a moment to go through some of the expressions you use every day. Chances are that those phrases use a vivid visual imagery of a situation. Some expressions use powerful analogies and metaphors.

Example 2: Charge your batteries
‘To charge someone’s batteries’ is ‘to motivate the person’. You can use the imagery quite beautifully in a business presentation. Take a look at this slide on ‘Intrinsic motivating factors’ for employees:
The image of a battery serves as a visual hook to register the message in audience’s mind. You can use custom animation to add even more impact to the slide. Let each factor enter on a click, as you provide explanation. When you finish explaining all four points, the battery gets fully charged.
Example 3: Key to solve a problem
We use the metaphor of ‘lock and key’ quite a lot in our daily talk. When you use a visual to capture the mental imagery of the phrase, you get a powerful diagram template like this:
The idea can be expanded in different ways.
- Multiple locks and one key – means one solution to many problems
- Multiple keys with one lock – means trying different options to solve a problem
- Wrong key to a lock – means inappropriate solution
You can go on and on in creating variations.
