Empower Your Business With Engaging Visual Presentations

You’ve worked really hard to create the perfect presentation and you’re proud of the time and effort you put into the project. There’s just one problem: most people don’t like watching business presentations. If your presentation is just a bunch of data pasted on white backgrounds, it doesn’t matter how important your information is, no one will pay attention. But all is not lost! Google Slides and CloudApp, when used in tandem, will allow you to easily create engaging visual presentations that your audience will be excited to watch. Keep reading to learn how these two software tools compliment each other.

Enhance Your Google Slides With GIFs

 If you’re not familiar with the media type, a GIF is a series of images or soundless video clips set to loop. GIFs are a popular and engaging visual content type that can be used to entertain and/or educate audiences. If you add one (or two, or three, or four!) to your next Google Sheets presentation, you’ll be able to quickly grab your audiences’ attention and better illustrate specific data points or processes. CloudApp makes it easy to create GIFs. You simply access the tool, select the area of your computer screen that you want to capture, and then hit the record button. The resulting footage will automatically be created in GIF format and uploaded to your personal CloudApp library for safe keeping.
