Introducing Slideshare
There's a not-so-secret internet place called Slideshare, where PowerPoint presentations go to hang out. In an trendy buzz-word kind of way, it has been referred to around the place as the "You Tube of PowerPoint". Now, doesn't that phrase alone just pique your interest?
Maybe you've heard of it before, but discounted it as a place where slide decks go to retire. And yes, there is an awful lot of context-less material floating around. But there is also a whole heap of potential lurking just under the surface. And that potential is what we're going to explore.
Repurpose your content
That's right. Turn your blog post, or your Tweets, or your Facebook updates into a slideshow. It's that easy (OK, it's not that easy). You will need to think about the design, about your message, about what you're trying to say. But you're starting with something you already have, and so a big chunk of the work is done.
Once it's uploaded onto Slideshare, your content gets a second lease of life and becomes a new part of your small business marketing strategy.
What are the advantages?
We think that final point is the most exciting one. How often do you get to jump on a bandwagon nice and early?
We also have a SlideShare page which you could follow, as we will start loading our content up there as we make it available.
