Create Flash Presentations Easily

Flash presentations are increasingly popular ways to conduct email solicitations. The old adage of a picture being worth a thousand words holds true and flash files can really tug at the heartstrings better than an email. For those that have never seen one they also hold a bit of novelty and are more likely to be read.

Flash is not easy for the inexperienced to create - but so many people use Powerpoint with transitions and sound now that creating an impressive presentation with Powerpoint is probably doable by at least one person in the office. Of course it should be someone with a bit of artistic talent so that you send out something professional!

There are now lots of resources for converting your Powerpoint presentations to flash files that can be used in a solicitation.

Check out this link for references on several of them. Do try out a few options - demo programs are available - because the quality is not the same for all of them and different programs will fit the needs of different people.

I'll discuss how to send out a Flash presentation in a future posting.
