Check out the Sleek PowerPoint Template by SlideCow.

This template by SlideCow is a great professional template for a number of reasons:

  1. The slide design is sleek and minimalist, as its name suggests, giving it a modern look and a professional polish;
  2. The style is bold, with it’s simple use of strong colors to highlight your points.
  3. The template gives you ample room for lots of text and data, as is often needed in business presentations.

Warning: Keep in mind that this template was not created in the Slide Master, so it’s technically what we call a fake PowerPoint template (details here)For this reason, I recommend using this template more for inspiration and slide design, or for one-off presentations.


How to best use this template:

We recommend you use this template for presentations that are used as documents, or Slidedocs as Nancy Duarte calls them, which are meant to be emailed, printed, and/or used as collateral, rather than projected.

That’s because the slides are fairly content-heavy, meaning that the viewer is expected to be able to read the slides, rather than simply listen to the speaker.
