‍"Building strategy decks from scratch is so frustrating, why can't I just steal the thinking and slides from experts?"

Most of us, when we start a new project, we start from scratch.

We build a brand-new project plan, we run bespoke analysis, we build custom PowerPoint presentations, and we structure unique frameworks.

But that's dumb. 🤦🏻‍♂️

We shouldn't be starting things from scratch. Every project has been seen before. Every problem has been solved before. Every slide has been built before.

Starting from scratch is counter-productive because:

  • ‍It's slow and expensive. It wastes hours of time, effort and money on work that doesn't actually need to be done.
  • ‍It reinvents the wheel. It requires you to develop materials and deliverables that already exist and could be bought off-the-shelf.
  • ‍It results in lower quality outputs. It means that you don't utilize the thinking of experts who have solved the same types of projects literally 1,000s of times

What if you had a database of consulting-quality slides built by experts that you could use in any project?

If you had a database of high-quality pre-built slides, then:

  • ‍You could finish projects faster. By shortcutting the project planning and slide building process, and accelerating to the "meat and potatoes" of the project.
  • ‍You could produce better deliverables. By using slide templates and frameworks developed by experts in their fields.
  • ‍You could earn great feedback as a high performer. Because you're the person who delivers results better than anybody else.

What's inside the Business Strategy & Consulting Toolkit?

The Business Strategy and Consulting Toolkit is a repository of pre-built slides, frameworks, Excel models, and other supporting documentation that empower you to deliver higher-quality strategy projects.

Because – when you think about it – no business problem is actually new.

There are only a handful of ways to enter a new market. There a limited options for any go-to-market strategy. And there's a well-known path to implement an organizational redesign.

In the toolkit you get:

  • 152 client-ready slides that are pre-built and ready to drop into your decks
  • 39 bespoke strategy frameworks to structure your projects
  • 7 Excel models and calculators to power your analysis
  • 527 PowerPoint elements, shapes and icons to use in your slides
  • 12 one-pagers and cheatsheets to shortcut your work

Let me be clear, the toolkit isn't just:

  • Empty slide templates that place the burden on you to create the content
  • Basic shapes and graphics that look cool but don't actually say anything insightful
  • Crappy high-level summaries of super common frameworks

Instead, the toolkit is packed with:

  • Client-ready slides that have been developed by strategy experts
  • Bespoke frameworks used by experts who've previously solved your problem
  • Real-world industry research that has been sourced from top consulting firms
  • Excel models and calculators that can be used off-the-shelf for your analysis

PART 1: VIDEO COURSE

The 1.5 hour video course that teaches slide theory (with practical examples)

Yes, this is our online PowerPoint course. But, unlike other courses, we don't focused on the boring theory of slide-building.

Instead, you’ll learn something much more important...

You'll learn the simple, repeatable science behind building the perfect corporate or consulting slide deck. Ready for senior executives.

Not only that -- you'll be taught using examples of real-world consulting presentations and by working through real examples live in video.

By the end of the course, you'll have the complete slide-building toolkit, just like strategy consultants at McKinsey, BCG, and Bain.

And, no matter what problem or topic you're given, you'll be able to confidently build killer slide decks that are guaranteed to hit the mark. You'll never look at a blank slide and think "where do I even start!?"

You will be able to:

  • Structure slide decks like a top-tier consultant. Master the universal structure of any slide deck using Minto's "Pyramid Principle".
  • Craft a bulletproof storyline and argument. Write a persuasive storyline using inductive logic, deductive logic, and the SCR structure.
  • Use blueprints to build slides better and faster. Build slide decks using the "table principle".
  • Always choose the best chart or visualization. Effortlessly choose the most compelling chart for your data and present it persuasively.
  • Write compelling slide text is sharp and punchy. Avoid common slide text mistakes to ensure that your text supports your visualizations.
  • Ensure that your slides have consultant-level flow. Improve flow across slides, so your reader effortlessly follows your thinking.

The toolkit is for anybody who wants to accelerate their projects and shortcut their slide building. 

Most of our customers are either corporate professionals, freelance consultants, or consulting firm owners. We offer both individual licenses and team licenses.

Are these slides taken directly from real consulting firms?

Absolutely not, that would be theft! Our team of ex-consultants have developed the slides based on their real-world consulting project experience and industry best-practices. These are the same people who built slides for their firms 😂

What happens after I buy?

During the checkout process, you'll create an account to access our online platform. From there, you can download the toolkit.

Whenever we update the toolkit, we will make the new version available on the platform. We will also email you directly to notify you that there are new slides available.

How do I change the slide styling and formatting to match my company brand?

All the slides are designed using Microsoft PowerPoint best practices. This means that you can simply edit the Slide Master, update the document color palette, etc and all the slides will update automatically.
