Many sales presentations go on for too long. But there is no single correct answer to the question What's the right length for a sales presentation? Audiences are different, sales cycles are different, and content is different.
The typical sales presentation is too long, too hard to follow, and all about "me". The introduction is all about "me" not "you". The audience don't know how to fit the information they are given to the wider structure. Benefits come right at the end, when everyone stopped listening already. Let’s turn this approach on its head with a more effective sales presentation outline.

Whenever we see a presentation filled with bullet points - either as audience members or presenters - our hearts sink. We just know it's going to be a one-way ticket to boredom central. Deep down we all know that bullet points simply don't belong in a presentation, but why do they always manage to worm their way back in? Well, let's figure out why, and how we can stop them!
What's the difference between a presentation and a speech? Many people use the words interchangeably, but there are two main areas of difference. Speeches shouldn't be held up as examples of what those giving presentations should emulate.
