In this post we'll makeover a text-heavy Pharma company timeline slide into an attractive and visual slide. We'll use PowerPoint Templates from Comprehensive All In One Bundle for the makeover.

The updated timeline slides is more visual and easy to understand.

The slide we will use for makeover is from a presentation on a company website. The company specific details have been removed.

Here is the original text-heavy slide:

ABOUT THE PRESENTATION SLIDE

Industry: Medical and Pharma

Presentation Type: Company Presentation

Type of Slide: Relationship

This slide simply uses a list of points. However if you look at it closely, these list of points are a list of events over time i.e. a timeline. Let's see if we can make this slide more visual.

Before selecting a template to use, we set the...

Criteria for Timeline Slide Makeover:

We need a template with the following features:

The template should show a timeline over 6 years
It should reflect the fact that the company has been growing
There should be sufficient place to add the descriptive text

Here is a PowerPoint template that meets this criteria from the Comprehensive All In One Bundle:

Steps to makeover the slide:

1
Insert the selected template into the main presentation
2
Copy and paste the last timeline element ( year, text box) to increase the number of years from 5 to 6
3
Add the revised text for each stage of growth in the new slide

We need to revise the text as it is too verbose. It took us about 5 minutes to complete the makeover of the timeline slide. We have used a simple white background as the original theme design takes up a lot of the space in the slide.

Here is the Timeline Slide after makeover:

Looks beautiful, doesn't it?

If we compare the original slide and the made over slide, we can see the difference...

Before and After Slides:

PowerPoint Timeline Slide Makeover

The revised slide is more visual and immediately conveys the idea of growth.

When you make your business slides visual by using relevant diagrams and charts, you make it easy for your audience to remember your message. However, it takes a lot of time and effort to create such professional looking graphics and diagrams from scratch. That is why we came up with our Comprehensive All in One Bundle.
