Public Relations & Social Marketing Insight

If you're reading this post, chances are you already have the SlideShare basics under your belt. You've uploaded a few presentations. You know you need a compelling story, beautiful design, enticing call-to-action, and solid promotion plan -- and you're comfortable executing on all of that in your slides.

But you feel like there's still more you could be doing with the platform. You want better copy, and better design, and better promotions, and better CTAs, and better results (usually in the form of leads). 

Unfortunately, the recommendations you've found so far have been fairly surface-level. 

If this sounds like you, I'd recommend you keep on reading. We've compiled an in-depth guide to generating leads with SlideShare, showing you how to design, optimize, and promote your presentations to get more traffic and leads....

Since I created the slide deck as part of a blog post that had yet to go live, we gave it zero promotion. And yet, when we happened upon our SlideShare page the following day, it had earned over 3,000 views. The presentation got picked up as a featured slideshare on SlideShare’s social media page. Our 10 minutes of quality time to build it resulted in over 5,000 views in one weekend.

What did we learn from this?

• SlideShare is worth our time.
• SlideShare users are eager for quality content.
• SlideShare has huge potential for businesses and brands looking for a new audience.

Of course, it all starts with the slides.
