Speaker notes
Speaker notes that stay attached to the slide
Notes written in one tool and delivered from another get lost. In Podium the script lives on the slide it belongs to, from the first draft through to the room.
Write for the ear, not the page
The editor treats a script as something you will say out loud. Write per slide, keep the phrasing short, and rehearse it before the meeting rather than reading it cold.
- A script field on every slide, saved with the presentation
- Dictate a take out loud and turn it into editable text
- Rewrite a rough script into something that sounds natural spoken
Rehearse the way you will deliver
Solo mode runs the presentation exactly as the presenter view will show it, so practice matches performance instead of approximating it.
Notes survive reuse
When you reopen a deck next quarter, the reasoning behind each slide is still there. That is usually the difference between reusing a presentation and rebuilding it.
