WHY
Many investor presentations fail not because of missing expertise, but due to weak structure, unclear storytelling and poor visual design. Content is overloaded, slides lack focus and speakers often struggle to deliver messages with confidence and impact. This applies across management meetings, boardrooms, investor presentations, sales situations and internal leadership formats.

Content is structured, translated into a coherent storyline and designed for clarity and impact in PowerPoint.

Presentation Services & Capabilities
There is an existing pitchdeck presentation within the organization, but it feels overloaded, generic or overly technical. Key messages are present, but they do not lead. Argumentation jumps, and slides compete for attention.
We take existing slides and sharpen the line: core messages, storyline and argumentation structure. We then reduce, reorganize and bring structure and visualization to the point where each slide carries a clear message, without rebuilding everything from scratch.
Result: A significantly stronger presentation based on existing material. Clearer, more focused, more convincing and ready for immediate use.
The problem is often not individual slides, but the foundation. Positioning is unclear, messages do not align and the structure does not hold. This becomes visible when internal stakeholders continuously add “just one more thing” until nothing leads anymore.
We work on content first: positioning, core messages and dramaturgy. From this, we develop a concept that clearly leads and translate it into a consistent system of structure and design logic. If look or structure do not support the message, we fundamentally rebuild the presentation.
Result: A newly built presentation with a solid strategic foundation, clear guidance through content and argumentation, driven by logic rather than slide volume.
Many corporate, sales and leadership presentations are formally correct, but strategically ineffective. Messages remain unclear, content gets lost in detail and presentations lead neither decisions nor people.
We connect strategy, story and slides into one coherent system. Together, we sharpen objectives and core messages, develop a compelling dramaturgy and translate complex content into clear, robust presentations. Visual design and speaker impact are always considered as integral parts.
Result: Presentations that create clarity, make leadership visible and enable decisions across executive, sales, HR, internal communication and investor relations.
A strong corporate presentation delivers little value if it is applied incorrectly internally. Too many details, wrong priorities and insecure responses to questions reduce impact. Presentations lose effectiveness even though the slides themselves are “actually good”.
We professionalize application through training focused on story, structure, language and presence. Teams learn to lead presentations confidently, prioritize content, sharpen key messages, handle objections and manage the room. Training is practical and based on real situations.
Result: Not just better slides, but stronger impact: confident appearances, clearer communication and presentations that work in the moment.

REDUCED WORKLOAD

Standard decks, clear design systems and training for application and speaker impact ensure presentations function internally without constant rework.

Storyline, visualization and corporate design work together as logic, not decoration.

Clear presentations lead to faster decisions and higher commitment in leadership and alignment processes.
Consistent argumentation, clean presentation design and reusable templates ensure sustainable use in everyday business.
Presentations do not just convince, they deliver measurable results.
HOW WE WORK
)
As a presentation agency, explain starts every collaboration with a structured discovery phase. As a service provider and strategic partner for professional presentations, we clarify objectives, target groups and decision situations. The focus is on the specific impact the presentation, whether corporate, sales, pitch or leadership-focused, is expected to achieve. Existing content, structure, argumentation logic and slides are analyzed to create a solid foundation.
)
Based on this foundation, we develop the presentation strategy. Content is prioritized, core messages sharpened and a clear argumentation line defined, aligned with decision-makers and internal stakeholders. As a partner for corporate presentations, explain does not think in slides, but in impact and decision logic. This turns material into a professional presentation with clear guidance through content.
)
In the structure phase, strategy is translated into a clear presentation architecture. Content is logically organized, a storyline developed and the presentation dramaturgically guided. As a studio for corporate and business presentations, we ensure that each presentation remains comprehensible and decision-oriented, regardless of complexity or content volume.
)
In the slide phase, the visible result is created: professional PowerPoint slides for a presentation that is consistent and easy to use. As a design agency for corporate presentations, we develop a reduced presentation design, clear visualizations and a clean layout logic aligned with corporate design. Design creates orientation, visualization supports arguments.
)
Presentations only work through people. explain supports speakers and leaders in their presence and delivery so that content is communicated clearly and confidently. As professionals for corporate and leadership presentations, we train presence, argumentation and confidence, aligned with the presentation and the audience. The goal is a presentation that not only looks good, but convinces in meetings and in front of decision-makers.

EXPERIENCED
For more than 20 years, explain has worked as a presentation agency and service provider for professional presentations in organizations. Our clients range from startups and mid-sized companies to international corporations, including more than a third of the German DAX 40. For more than 12 years, explain has supported the event presentations of a global brand with three stripes. Based on this experience and our own expertise as speakers, we understand how corporate presentations, executive presentations, sales presentations and keynote presentations must work in organizations and on stage.
HOLISTIC
Slides mean nothing without the connection between content, structure and people. As a strategic partner for presentations, explain approaches presentations holistically, from strategy and storytelling to structure and design, all the way to speaker impact. Strategic consultants, storytellers, speechwriters, presentation designers, trainers and coaches work closely together. This ensures that content, structure, design and delivery interact seamlessly and presentations become effective in leadership communication and organizational contexts.
LEADING
explain is an innovator in professional corporate and business presentations. As experts and professionals in presentations, we have developed our own formats, methods and standards for effective communication over many years. With explain Stages, the explain F5 Magazine, the explain Presentation Model and the explain Shuttle as a 360-degree space for presentations and communication, we actively shape the understanding of presentations as a leadership tool. This know-how flows directly into every collaboration with companies, leaders, brands and teams.
Portfolio
Presentations for entrepreneurs and C-level leaders must provide direction, not administration. When strategy, vision or transformation is communicated, communication cannot be vague. We work with entrepreneurs and top management to develop strategic communication approaches and translate them into presentations that enable decisions, whether in boardrooms, town halls or on large stages. Including sparring, coaching and speaker preparation for leaders.
Marketing and sales teams need presentations that clearly communicate positioning and convince in real conversations. We develop sales presentations, pitch decks, trade fair presentations, customer presentations and thought leadership formats that lead with value, build trust and prepare next steps. On request, we include enablement for teams to ensure presentations can be scaled and used consistently in daily sales practice.
In corporate and investor communication, clarity, consistency and credibility are critical. We support internal and external communication with presentations for investor relations, capital markets, strategy and performance communication. From investor presentations and capital markets decks to press conferences and earnings calls, with clear storylines, robust argumentation and structures that are quickly understood.
HR uses presentations to provide orientation, communicate culture and make leadership effective. We support employer branding presentations, recruiting formats, leadership communication and change communication. The goal is to clearly communicate vision, values and development and to attract, lead and engage employees. Supported by training and enablement for leaders to ensure consistent and effective communication in everyday business.
FAQs
Yes. Strategy and storytelling are the starting point of our work. Before we talk about content or visual design, we clarify objectives, context, messages and dramaturgy. We help organizations condense complex topics and tell them in a way that provides orientation and creates impact.
explain is not a classic presentation agency. We work where communication has consequences. Our work does not start with slides, but with leadership, strategy and impact. Content, story, visual design and speaker impact are always considered as one holistic system. The result is presentations that do not just look good, but make leadership visible.
Collaboration usually starts with a structured workshop. Together, we analyze objectives, target groups and the specific context of the presentation. Based on this, we develop narrative structure, core messages and visual logic. Speaker preparation and coaching can be integrated as required.
The duration depends on scope and strategic ambition. Typically, a project takes between two and six weeks. For time-critical situations, accelerated processes are possible without compromising quality or impact.
Yes. Presentations only create impact when they are delivered well. That is why we support leaders and speakers through coaching, presentation training and strategic sparring. The goal is a confident appearance that fits the individual and the situation.
The cost depends on the objectives, scope, and level of support required. After an initial consultation, we provide a transparent, tailored proposal. What matters most is not the number of slides, but the strategic impact of the presentation.
Yes. PowerPoint masters, templates and slide libraries are always developed in the context of a clear strategic guiding idea. They are not an end in themselves, but tools to make communication within organizations consistent, scalable and effective. That is why our templates are never created in isolation, but as part of a comprehensive communication and design system.
