Design and Development
How much commitment do you devote to your presentations?
It's strange that a new brochure requires the involvement of designers, copywriters, corporate ID police - and weeks of discussion about content. But that vital presentation to your biggest client gets knocked together the night before. Next time the Sales Director needs to make a big pitch he’ll either copy and paste a few bits from another presentation, or maybe pass the job to someone who went on a PowerPoint course a couple of years ago.
But after he's bored his audience to death, at least he'll have a lovely brochure to give them.
Powered-up PowerPoint
Sometimes you don't need the full-on power of our Configurative presentation system. And sometimes PowerPoint is the only option - if a conference organiser specifies it for example. It's not as big a problem as you might think. You’d be surprised at just how good a PowerPoint presentation can look, and just how persuasive it can be. My team can deliver anything from a drop-dead template design, right through to a fully animated, ultra-professional conference piece. All produced using the familiar Microsoft tool you know so well.
Presentations in Hyper-drive
If you need the ultimate slickness, silk-smooth animation and seamless integration of media, then PowerPoint probably won’t deliver what you need. That’s where Configurative - our own, bespoke presentation system - comes into its own. Not only does it deliver state-of-the-art 3D and 2D, animation, Flash and video integration and more, but it's also instantly configurable to suit that last minute presentation.
Seamless Media Integration
Add video, Adobe Flash, 3d animation or just about anything else to your presentation and we’ll build it seamlessly into the production so that no one can see the join. The same goes for pulling in information from spreadsheets, databases and other documents. Your live, up-to-the-minute information can be automatically embedded in every presentation you make.
Thirty-Second Rebuild
Provide your sales force with our unique module library. We break your proposition into a series of discrete, updatable modules. Creating a perfectly structured presentation then involves nothing more demanding than clicking on the modules you want to include, and then assembling them in the order you want. Even allowing time to add your customer’s logo and a specific title to your presentation, you’re ready to go in less than five minutes.
Instant Customer Copy
Want to leave your customer with a copy of your presentation? Just click the Copy button and you can hand over a CD or memory stick with the presentation you just made, exactly as you made it. You can even include a pop-up window with the text of your narrative. Your customer doesn’t need any pre-installed software (not even PowerPoint), and we can even provide versions that run on PC and Macintosh.
Automatic Updates
If you have a distributed sales force it can be a nightmare to keep all the presentations up to date. Our unique TeamSync system allows you to update all of them remotely and simply. All they’ll need is an Internet connection and it all happens automatically. TeamSync also allows your team to share their presentations instantly, reducing workload even further.

Take Control of your Presentations If you need to make regular changes to your presentations, but you want to keep control of what your sales force are presenting, then allow us to introduce Configurative. It's a unique presentation technology that we developed to allow you to present how and what you want without compromise. Of course, we couldn't resist refining it, so Configurative now features built-in sales analysis, automatic updates and much more. |

Ibbis Persuades with PowerPoint When Ibbis were asked by Westland to train their sales staff, they came to us to help them move the day up a gear. To fit in with the format of other presenters' material, PowerPoint was specified as the delivery medium, so we set about producing the slick, smooth, professional visuals that the event called for. We visited the garden centres and interviewed key staff. The resulting video was edited into the PowerPoint presentation, and everything was set for a great day's training. Westland reported it as their most effective and impressive training exercise to date. Congratulations, as always, go to Ibbis for great content and first-rate training delivery. |

Multi-National Updates with Configurative Sunterra owns holiday properties in around 25 countries. The quality is superb, as is clear to anyone who stays in one of their luxury apartments. They asked us to build a presentation system that can be used by their sales decks around the world to show potential customers the superb holiday destinations they can offer. The system features over an hour of compelling full-screen video, plus voiced sections on management fees and points values. The information changes almost daily as holiday units are upgraded and improved, and as new property becomes available. Before Configurative, the only way of keeping the sales decks up to date was to jet DVDs around the world. Thanks to our Configurative technology, it's all done quickly, easily and automatically from a central location. Changes are edited at head office, and then populated automatically around the globe. The Sunterra presentation was the first application to use Configurative's sales analysis system. Every salesman's presentation is captured and analysed. The data is automatically returned to head office during the update process. This makes it possible to analyse presentation paths against sales results, providing a picture of the ideal sales pitch. Configurative even controls the environment, dimming the lights for video sections, spotlighting the presenter, or raising the house lights for break-out sessions. It's all automatic, so the presenter can concentrate on presenting. |
