Professional Live Presentations With Slidekite
Are you still using your meeting tool's screen sharing to share presentation slides with your audience? There's a better way!
Slidekite solves various problems associated with delivering presentation slides via traditional screen sharing. It improves your audience's experience and makes you more professional.
Interactivity
Interactivity matters in making your presentation memorable and ensuring it stands out among all the presentations done the old way.
In screen-shared presentations, you might hear variations of "Can you put this in the chat?" or "Yes, I can send you this info again later." Why can't the audience simply copy what they need directly from the slides? Instead, they are forced to type out information manually or ask the host to write links or text into the chat. This interrupts the presentation, deteriorates the user experience, and likely results in fewer links from your slides being opened.
Slidekite addresses this problem by enabling your audience to click on links or copy text themselves, directly from the slides. Whenever you include links, phone numbers, code, to-dos, or whatever else in your slides, you can be confident your audience won't need to interrupt the presentation or follow up to get the information they need.
During or after a presentation you might have also already heard requests like "Can you go five slides back?" or "What did it say on slide 12 again?" Traditionally, the audience has to ask you, the host, to navigate the slides back or forth. This interrupts the presentation for everyone, and fulfilling this request might not always be possible due to time constraints or the host missing the request. Why can't the audience navigate to where they want themselves, without interrupting anything? Screen sharing doesn't make sense for delivering professional presentations.
With Slidekite, your audience can navigate the slides themselves and easily jump back to the current live slide you are discussing. Meanwhile, you can continue the presentation without any interruptions. This is useful if your audience wants to:
Go back to a previous slide: to gather important information or revisit a slide that caught their attention for a deeper understanding of your content
See what's coming: this can help with easier digestion of your content or help participants better assess if your presentation will be relevant to them
Quality
Slidekite also improves the visual quality of your presentation. With traditional screen sharing, the presentation is delivered via a constant video stream, meaning the visual quality can significantly worsen if the connection of either the audience or the host slows down. Additionally, a stream consumes significant compute and battery power of the participating devices.
Slidekite downloads the actual presentation slides and does so only once: when your audience joins. This ensures constant high quality of the slides, even if either the host's or the audience's connection slows down.
Privacy
Moreover, Slidekite doesn't share your screen in any way, so it can't accidentally expose any private notifications, files, or browser tabs on your desktop. It keeps your private stuff private and prevents such interruptions during your presentation, helping you stay professional.
Flexible Delivery
Slidekite is useful in all presentation scenarios:
Remote/virtual presentations
Present your slides to a distributed audience. All participants can see the slide you're presenting on live.
In-person presentations
Without a projector: You no longer need a projector to present. Your audience can open the presentation on their device.
With a projector: Even with a projector, Slidekite enhances your presentation:
After starting a live presentation and projecting the image your audience can still enjoy interactivity features like copying text, opening links, and exploring the slides on their own. Plus, people in the back can follow along on Slidekite if the projected slides are hard to read.
Hybrid presentations
Present both in-person and remotely at the same time.
Conclusion
Slidekite increases your audience's interaction and improves their experience. It makes your presentation professional by preventing interruptions and ensuring high quality of the slides. No matter how you deliver your presentation, Slidekite helps you be professional and makes your presentations stand out.
