Hello!

Since you asked... here are some comments:

In general, you would be safe making titles of the X/Y graphs. So:
Figure 5- Five year overview of potato consumption
would be a simple and accurate title.

As far as the summary, I cannot even begin to touch that one. Now, I am not being critical, so please don't take it that way. But opening up your presentation, all it appeared to me was a whole bunch of number placed into bar charts. That's perfectly fine, if you are building a case. How do the charts relate to one another? What point are they trying to make? If you don't tie them together, each viewer will make their own summary from the data. Make sense?

For example, I leave with the impression that there are a lot of french fries sold. Marc may have another, Jim another, you another, etc. You don't want that in a presentation.

The beginning of the presentation should have more introductory material. I might even lose a couple of the slides, unless they are really relevant.

Who is watching this presentation, and why? The presentation should be geared towards the audience. My impression of the presentation as-is: a group of marketing professionals interested in an in-depth numerical analysis of potatoes in restaurants.

Finally, the colors are very nice, and generally well-labeled. Make sure the final presentation equipment will use similar versions of Power Point. Also, while colors may look clear on a computer screen, make sure they show up well on the big screen for the presentation.

I hope that was some help:D

Hi Brad, Thanks for your input, iam looking to get similar inputs, this presentation is the second part of my job interview and the decision to hire me will be based on this presentation, truthfully to me this presentaion is a whole lot of jargon, but if the company requires me to do this in order for them to hire me, as you understand i have no choice but to follow through, and if i don't, may as well not show up for the interview, iam just stuck inbetween a rock and a hard place, all i really need right now is, if someone could come up with titles for each slide and a convincing story, Oh Boy, what a situation, by the way, thanks again for all your help, really appreciate this.

You realize, I hope, that if you put together something impressive based on advice you get here (or elsewhere) and get the job, you're going to be expected to do similar things on your own. I would suggest that you start by adding the titles and recommendations yourself, doing the best you can, and then let us give some help from that point. If you get stuck you can always post back with specific questions.

Think of what that'll be like when your new boss puts a presentation in front of you and tells you he needs it completed by tomorrow morning. If you've already tried applying titles, etc., it shouldn't be difficult to go through the thing again and apply what you think is appropriate, then post the results for additional input.

Hi Jim, You are absolutely right about the situation between the boss and myself, but the irony of the whole thing is that my job (if hired) has nothing to do with making presentation, Iam into sales (inside not retail) and thats all, i'll be doing, hence this predicament, but i guess they want to see if iam able to do this incase of a future promotion to Marketing Analyst. Thanks.

It appears your potential boss wants to evaluate your ability to make an acceptable presentation. My advise is to give it your best shot - if it isn't good enough then you probably are not a suitable candidate for the position. I know that sounds a little harsh but that's how the business world functions.

Hello ddavidd1,

In addition to the great advice provided by my Fellow Covers, here are some sites that may help you to add the "finishing touch." I believe that the main purpose of your presentation is for your prospective employer to find out how you deal with an (unexpected) challenge.
Wishing you lots of success and a Happy New Year!

Stijloor.
