Are your presentations guilty of the following sins?

1. Illegibility. Know the size of the room, screen and audience before you create a presentation. The person at the back of the crowd should easily be able to read your slides. If he or she can't, they're going to tune out. Pick a clearly readable font that's large enough for the potential decision maker at the back of the room to read. And make sure to keep your slide backgrounds simple and clean.

2. Information Overload. Presentations are supposed to support what you're saying, not tell the whole story. Otherwise, why should people listen to you? Use the outline of your presentation to pick and choose the main points on the screen. If you are going over a complex document, give your audience a handout to which they can refer.

3. Bullet Point Abuse. Slide after slide of bulleted text will have your audience sliding into REM. Break up the text with an image, video, chart or other illustration that is relevant and that will crystallize your main point.

4. Lost in the Wilderness. In longer presentations, take the time to put information into context. As you complete each section, flash back to the bigger picture for a moment so the audience knows how all the information fits together. This will also keep your presentation on track because if you can't fit a section into the bigger picture, it doesn't belong there.

   S Corporation Forms
   An S corporation is a type of corporation that the IRS recognizes. S corporations follow taxation rules that differ from those that regular corporations follow. A main difference is that S corporations are exempt from double taxation. This is because the owner declares the income a corporation receives in individual tax returns. Corporations are not subjected to taxation of the income. The taxation rules follow

   Factoring is Not Always About Cash Flow Problems, For Many It's About Growth
   Even though Factoring is an extremely common business practice in Europe, many American business people have never heard of it or used it. Factoring has been practiced for centuries; the Romans sold promissory notes at a discount and the Pilgrims journeys to America were financed by advances from a Factor who provided the funds to pay for the journey. The Pilgrims repaid the money with earnings from America. T

    Dropship on the WWW
    Dropship on the WWWThere is no doubt that you can dropship on the WWW (world wide web) and make a substantial additional income by selling wholesale items on eBay or through an online website. Many have done it, but they did it with a real dropship list for WWW retailers. In order to compete you are going to need a dropship list of real dropship wholesalers that will dropship products to businesses on the

15. Selfishness. In sales presentations, it's easy to slide into the trap of telling talking about your product or service, instead of what it will do for your customer's lives. Internal presentations, be they about sales activities or manufacturing output, should also take their audience's concerns into consideration.

    In presenting to your boss, keep the goals he's set for you and the bigger picture in mind. In presenting to staffers, reinforce the positive reasons why they should be paying attention.

16. Poor Branding. Using a template, especially one that is at odds with your corporate branding, will make it hard for people to recall who presented what, especially if you're competing for attention. Make sure the design, layout, colours and font used in your presentation could only have come from your company.

17. Copyright Violation. Sure it's tempting to grab a graphic from a Google Image Search, scan a Dilbert cartoon or use a track from your favourite music CD to spice up your presentation, but guess what? It's illegal. Even if you're only putting together an internal presentation: if you didn't commission the material you wish to use or get it from a royalty free source that allows business use - it's against the law to include it.

    You might not get a knock on your door from Sony music or Scott Adams (the guy that writes Dilbe
