I suppose over the years we have may have become too dependant on computers and multimedia presentations. Audiences are used to this formula, and feel comfortable with it. There is no doubt that sometimes the level of a company’s presentation can positively effect their sales performance. But what happens if something in the middle of making a presentation and your PowerPoint becomes unavailable because of technical difficulties? My advice is “don’t panic, work around it.” Your audience will have an ideal opportunity to gauge how your company will cope in a panic situation and it may well work to your good. Not that we would recommend that you add this trick to your repertoire, but it is always good to be prepared and flexible.
