Why I design my own slides instead of buying premium templates?
The first and foremost reason is that, almost 90% of the themes look differently in showcase
than in real.
You need a designer eyes to segregate the theme elements from Stock images used.
Because those stock images, which are used in showcase or thumbnails, won’t be provided
to you.
If you buy those templates, then in the place of those images, these templates will come
with image placeholders or text placeholders.
So what looks like a stunning presentation would look terrible when you add your own
low quality, unedited images.
The second reason is that Not all slides are to my liking.
Generally a template comes with 20 -30 slides, of which I like or use only 5 - 8 slides,
rest would be unrelated to me.
Some templates advertise 100s of slides, but they are usually just a recolored version
of the 20 - 30 base slides.
So we are often paying for slides that we won’t use at all.
The other way of looking at this issue is that, I like a few slides from many templates,
which leads to the purchase of many templates.
So, it exponentially increases the budget.
Another important reason is that, I want my slides to be unique.
Wherever I go to present my PowerPoint presentation, I want it to be like nothing else.
Not only me even you would have thought the same way, when you made your presentation.
The last reason is that It’s easy for me to create my own slide, to my liking, rather
than editing the premium templates, as both takes the same time for me.
Once you complete this course and complete practicing all the slides along with me, Yo
too, would feel the same.
