Sample slides for an estate planning presentation

by Boyd Johnson on November 6, 2009

I recently gave a presentation at Bethlehem Baptist Church on estate planning issues for seniors. The slideshare presentation linked below is a version of the slides I created and used. I’m providing them here in case someone finds it helpful in creating their own estate planning presentation.

As you can see by flipping through the slides, I adopted a minimalist design, trying to use as few bullet points as possible. There is almost nothing worse than a presenter who merely reads bullet points off of the screen during a presentation. Instead, I think the speaker should carry the content of the presentation– not the slides– so you won’t find much content on the slides themselves. You’ll have to fill in the content a bit to make the slides make sense. The slides act more as visual placeholders to guide the listener. At the end of the presentation, I provided everyone a booklet on estate planning as a take-away.

Note: Some of the formatting didn’t convert to slideshare very well, so things are a bit off.
