Add speaker notes to your slides
When you're creating a presentation, you can add speaker notes to refer to later while delivering the slide show in front of an audience.
During your presentation, the speaker notes are visible on your monitor, but aren't visible to the audience. So the Notes pane is the place to store talking points that you want to mention when you give your presentation.
![how to add notes on presentations Your browser does not support video. Install Microsoft Silverlight, Adobe Flash Player, or Internet Explorer 9.](https://support.content.office.net/en-us/media/4873755a-8b1e-497e-bc54-101d1e75d3e7.png)
Add notes while creating your presentation
The Notes pane is a box that appears below each slide. (It is outlined in magenta in the picture below.) An empty Notes pane will prompt you with text that says, Click to add notes . Type your speaker notes there. If you donât see the Notes pane or it is completely minimized, click Notes on the task bar across the bottom of the PowerPoint window (also marked in magenta in the picture below).
![how to add notes on presentations Shows the speaker Notes pane in PowerPoint](https://support.content.office.net/en-us/media/9a7ee826-15f3-4422-88df-e3c86ed28e76.png)
If your notes exceed the allotted length of the Notes pane, a vertical scroll bar appears on the side of the pane. You can also enlarge the Notes pane by pointing your mouse at the top line of the pane and then dragging upward after the pointer turns into a double-headed arrow.
What the notes look like in Presenter view
Tip: You can add notes either while youâre presenting, directly from Presenter view, or as youâre editing your presentation. For information on how to add speaker notes to while editing your presentation, see Add speaker notes to your slides. Â
The notes appear in a pane on the right. If you need to add or delete something, simply click in the text box to edit it. The text wraps automatically, and a vertical scroll bar appears if necessary. You can also change the size of the text in the Notes pane by using the two buttons at the lower left corner of the Notes pane:
![how to add notes on presentations Change the size of the text in the Notes pane in Presenter view](https://support.content.office.net/en-us/media/cf921a65-0947-4887-b1f4-4f6ba73d17aa.png)
Presenter view isn't something you have to create. PowerPoint assembles it for you by gathering the notes you've typed for each slide and pairing them with a set of controls for navigating through your presentation.
By default, PowerPoint is set to use Presenter view when you run a slide show. You can change this setting on the Slide Show tab of the PowerPoint ribbon:
![how to add notes on presentations The Presenter View option is controlled by a check box on the Slide Show tab of the ribbon in PowerPoint.](https://support.content.office.net/en-us/media/6a1333b9-e386-4579-b8f0-051aed6e5ab8.png)

How to add notes to your Microsoft PowerPoint slides
When you present a slideshow, itâs likely that you have more to say than what displays on the slides. You may want to expand on the text youâve included, or if the slide only contains visuals, explain them further.
Add speaker notes to a slide in PowerPoint
Hide notes while editing a slideshow, view speaker notes during a slideshow.
Luckily, Microsoft PowerPoint provides a built-in feature for speaker notes. This allows you to add notes to each slide and then see them in Presenter View when you start the show.
What You Need
Microsoft PowerPoint
Open your PowerPoint presentation and select the first slide where you want to add notes.
Step 1: Go to the View tab and choose either Normal or Outline View . This allows you to see your slide along with the note you plan to add.
If youâre wondering how to add a note in PowerPoint without changing the view, the short answer is: You canât. But if you prefer not to use Normal or Outline View, you can check out the Notes Page view in the same section of the ribbon.
While still technically a âview,â this displays your slide and a text box for your note as a printed page, as shown below.
Step 2: Display the Notes panel below the slide if itâs not visible using one of the following:
- Click the Notes button in the Status Bar at the bottom.
- Move your cursor to the bottom of the window. When you see the two-sided arrow, drag up until the panel displays.

- How to buy Microsoft Office: all methods, explained
Step 3: When the panel is empty, youâll see âClick to Add Notesâ within it. Place your cursor in the box and type your note.
Step 4: You can apply simple formatting to your note using the tools on the Home tab or in the floating toolbar. This is handy if you want to add bullet points or emphasize the font with bold, italics, or an underline.
Step 5: If you have a lengthy note within the panel, youâll see a scrollbar appear on the right so that you can move down and see the entire note. You can also drag up on the panel to enlarge it.
If you want your slide in full view as you're assembling or editing your slideshow, you can hide the presenter notes. This does not delete them; it merely moves the notes panel out of view.
Do one of the following to hide your notes:
- Drag the notes panel downward until it no longer displays.
When itâs time to present your slideshow, you can use Presenter View to see your speaker notes. This allows you to view the notes for each slide on your monitor while presenting the slideshow on another. Your audience will not see your notes.
Step 1: Go to the Slide Show tab. On Windows, check the box for Use Presenter View in the Monitors section of the ribbon. On Mac, click the Presenter View button in the Start Slide Show section.
If youâve already started the slideshow, you can still turn on Presenter View. Click the Three Dots in the Presenter Toolbar and choose Show Presenter View (Windows) or Use Presenter View (Mac).
Step 2: Youâll then see your notes display on the right side of the screen, with your slide on the left. As you advance each slide, the notes will display accordingly.
Step 3: The text for your note wraps automatically to the next line, and you have a scrollbar to move through those lengthy notes.
To adjust the font size for the notes, use the buttons below the notes panel.
Whether you want to add notes to PowerPoint to talk through your slideshow or simply as references while you assemble your slides, be sure to take advantage of this built-in feature.

Few communication applications are as versatile as Microsoft Teams. Along with allowing you to send quick messages to teammates or launch a video chat, the software is fully integrated with Office 365 so you can optimize its performance. One of its most useful features, however, is the ability to create a new team. This lets you group people together so they can chat about certain projects or goals without spamming everyone in your organization.
Knowing how to make a new team and how to properly organize teams makes it easy for a company to enhance productivity and streamline communication. When used effectively, Microsoft Teams is useful for both in-office and remote workers, ensuring everyone stays on the same page regardless of location.
PowerPoint makes it easy to give a great presentation thanks to intuitive software that lets anyone craft an eye-catching deck. What's even better, however, is the option to use Presenter View. This lets you leave notes for yourself that can be viewed on your computer screen while everyone else is only seeing your presentation.
Do you have any clue how much power your PC consumes when youâre playing video games? Or how about when itâs just sitting idly?

Fortunately, there are several different tools you can use to monitor this important statistic. Some are built right into your operating system, while others will require a separate download. You can also purchase certain external devices to keep tabs on your desktopâs energy output.

If you're worried about forgetting important points during your presentation, jot down some speaker notes. Here's how to prepare and use them.
Quick Links
Add speaker notes in powerpoint, use speaker notes during a powerpoint presentation.
Adding speaker notes to a PowerPoint presentation provides reference material for the speaker when they're presenting a slideshow, allowing them to stay on track without forgetting key message points. Hereâs how to add and use speaker notes.
To add speaker notes in PowerPoint, youâll first need to be in the Normal view. If youâre not already there, you can switch to Normal view by going to the âViewâ tab and then selecting âNormalâ in the âPresentation Viewsâ group.
Next, in the pane on left, select the slide where you'd like to add speaker notes.
Next, click the âNotesâ button at the bottom of the window.
A small box reading âTap to Add Notesâ will appear beneath the slide. For Mac users, this will say âClick to Add Notes.â
Now, simply type the speaker notes for that slide. Repeat this process for each slide you'd like to add notes to.
There are two ways to use speaker notes during a presentation: by presenting on a secondary monitor or by printing out the speaker notes .
Using a Secondary Monitor
Itâs safe to assume that most presentations will be presented on a secondary monitor. If this is the case for you, thereâs not a whole lot you really need to do.
Related: How to Add an Extra Monitor to Your Laptop
The first thing you need to do is change the view to Slide Show. You can do this by selecting the Slide Show icon at the bottom-right corner of the window.
In this view, the audience will see only the slides as youâre going through the presentation. However, on your primary monitor, youâll see the current slide, a preview of the upcoming slide, and your speaker notes for the current slide.
This is a convenient way to have a virtual copy of the speaker notes while youâre giving a presentation, but it never hurts to have a hard copy.
Printing the Speaker Notes
To print the speaker notes of your presentation, first select the âFileâ tab in the Ribbon.

In the pane on left, select the âPrint" button.
In the âSettingsâ group, select the option that says âFull Page Slides.â
A drop-down menu will appear. Here, select âNotes Pagesâ in the âPrint Layoutâ group.
Finally, click âPrint.â
Youâll now have a physical copy of your speaker notes.

If you're presenting in front of a room and can't keep returning to your laptop, you can still use your presenter notes. Just print the slideshow out with the notes.

If you want to share your PowerPoint on Zoom without showing the audience your notes, there are several options. A very simple and straightforward option would be to simply print out your notes. If you have two monitors, PowerPoint will automatically set up the Presenter View for you. If you do not have a second screen, you only have to go to the three dots at the very bottom left during the presentation, there you can easily display the speaker view under "Speaker view".
Now, turn the tables! - Let your attendees take private notes
With the help of SlideLizard (a cool software for live audience interaction in PowerPoint), your participants can make private notes directly on their own smartphones during the presentation. These notes remain linked to the slides and at the end of the presentation, all participants receive their own notes via email. In addition, your audience can mark the most important slides with a star to make them easier to find again later. Moreover, with SlideLizard you can add live polls & quizzes directly in your PowerPoint. You can try SlideLizard for free today !

Why Adding Notes to PowerPoint Presentations is Important
Notes are an essential tool to help keep you organized and on track during your presentation. By adding notes to your PowerPoint slides, you can keep track of important points that you need to cover, remind yourself of key statistics and figures, and even add reminders about the tone or style of your presentation.
Notes can also be helpful for keeping track of any questions or concerns that arise during your presentation. By having your notes readily available, you can quickly address any issues or respond to questions in a timely and professional manner. Additionally, adding notes to your PowerPoint slides can help you stay focused and confident, knowing that you have everything you need at your fingertips.
Another benefit of adding notes to your PowerPoint presentations is that it can help you tailor your presentation to your audience. By including notes about your audience’s interests, concerns, or background, you can adjust your presentation to better meet their needs and expectations. This can help you engage your audience and make a more impactful presentation.
Step-by-Step Guide on Adding Notes to PowerPoint Slides
Adding notes to your PowerPoint slides is a simple process:
- Open the PowerPoint presentation you want to add notes to.
- Click on the “View” tab at the top of the screen.
- Click on the “Notes Page” button.
- This will open a new page where you can add your notes.
- You can type or copy and paste your notes into the section below the slide.
- Repeat this process for each slide in your presentation.
Adding notes to your PowerPoint slides can be a helpful tool for presenters. These notes can serve as reminders of important points to cover, or as a script to follow during the presentation. Additionally, notes can be printed out and used as a reference for the audience after the presentation is over. By taking advantage of this feature, you can enhance the effectiveness of your PowerPoint presentation and ensure that your message is conveyed clearly.
Tips for Writing Effective Notes for Your PowerPoint Presentation
Now that you know how to add notes to your PowerPoint slides, it’s important to write effective notes that will help you stay on track and deliver an engaging presentation. Here are some tips:
- Keep your notes brief and to the point.
- Use bullet points to organize your thoughts and ideas.
- Make sure your notes are easy to read and understand.
- Include important facts and figures, but don’t overload your notes with too much information.
- Add reminders about the tone, pacing, and style of your presentation.
- Practice delivering your presentation with your notes to make sure they are clear and helpful.
Another important tip for writing effective notes for your PowerPoint presentation is to use keywords and phrases that will trigger your memory and help you remember important points. This will help you stay focused and on track during your presentation.
Additionally, it’s a good idea to include prompts or cues in your notes that will remind you to engage with your audience. For example, you might include a note to ask a question or encourage participation at a certain point in your presentation.
How to Use Notes as a Speaker During Your PowerPoint Presentation
As you deliver your PowerPoint presentation, it’s important to use your notes effectively to ensure you are delivering the best possible presentation. Here are some tips:

- Use your notes to customize your presentation to your audience’s needs and interests.
- Practice delivering your presentation with your notes ahead of time, so you feel confident and comfortable using them during your actual presentation.
Another important aspect of using notes during your PowerPoint presentation is to keep them concise and organized. Avoid writing out your entire script, as this can lead to reading directly from your notes and disengaging with your audience. Instead, use bullet points or short phrases to jog your memory and keep you on track. Additionally, consider using color coding or highlighting to draw attention to important points or transitions. By keeping your notes organized and easy to read, you can deliver a more polished and professional presentation.

When it comes to creating a presentation in PowerPoint, adding speaker notes can be a helpful tool to keep you on track and ensure that you cover all the important points. However, it’s not uncommon to need to edit those notes as you practice and refine your presentation.

To begin, it’s important to note that editing speaker notes in PowerPoint is a straightforward process. Once you have created your presentation and added speaker notes, you can easily access them in Presenter view. From there, you can make any necessary changes or updates to your notes as you rehearse your presentation.
One helpful tip is to use the Notes pane in Presenter view, which allows you to view your speaker notes while still seeing your slides on the main screen. This can be especially useful if you need to make quick edits or adjustments to your notes during your presentation. Additionally, you can use the F6 key to quickly select the Notes pane in Presenter view.

Utilizing Notes and Presenter View
Designing engaging slides, preparing notes and handouts, adapting to different presentation environments, keyboard shortcuts, text formatting, microsoft 365 integration, bold formatting, editing notes pages, crafting effective powerpoint presentations.
![how to add notes on presentations A computer screen displaying a PowerPoint slide with a cursor editing the notes section](https://koala.sh/api/image/v2-cf5i6-rec14.jpg?width=1216&height=832&dream)
As someone who has used PowerPoint for years, I have learned that there are several key elements to crafting an effective presentation. Utilizing notes and presenter view, as well as designing engaging slides, are crucial to creating a presentation that will captivate your audience.
One of the most important features of PowerPoint is the ability to add notes to your slides. These notes can be used to provide additional information, reminders, or cues to guide your presentation. To add notes, simply click on the Notes button located beneath each slide. If you don’t see it, click on the View tab at the top of the screen and then click on Notes Page. Once you have added your notes, you can view them in Presenter View during your presentation.
Presenter View is a powerful tool that allows you to see your notes and upcoming slides while your audience only sees the current slide. This allows you to stay on track and provide a seamless presentation. To access Presenter View, click on the Slide Show tab at the top of the screen and then click on Presenter View.
In addition to utilizing notes and presenter view, designing engaging slides is crucial to keeping your audience interested. One way to do this is by using a variety of fonts, font sizes, and colors. This can help to emphasize key messages and make your presentation more visually appealing.
Another way to design engaging slides is by using different presentation views. Outline View, for example, allows you to see an overview of your presentation and can be useful for organizing your thoughts. Slide Sorter View allows you to rearrange your slides and see how they flow together. Finally, Reading View allows you to preview your presentation as it will appear to your audience.
In conclusion, by utilizing notes and presenter view, as well as designing engaging slides, you can create a presentation that will captivate your audience. Remember to use a variety of fonts, font sizes, and colors, and to take advantage of different presentation views to keep your presentation organized and flowing smoothly.
Optimizing PowerPoint for Various Audiences
As a presenter, it is crucial to optimize your PowerPoint presentation for different audiences to ensure that your message is delivered effectively. This can be achieved by preparing speaker notes, handouts, and adapting to different presentation environments.
Speaker notes are an essential tool for presenters as they help to keep the presentation on track and ensure that important points are not missed. To create speaker notes, select “Notes Page View” in PowerPoint, which will display a blank notes page next to each slide. Here, you can add your speaker notes, which will be visible only to you during the presentation.
Handouts are another important tool for presenters as they provide a summary of the presentation that the audience can take away with them. To create handouts, select “Print” from the “File” menu and choose the number of slides you want to include on each page. You can also add speaker notes to your handouts by selecting the “Notes Pages” option.
When presenting in different environments, it is important to adapt your presentation to ensure that it is effective. For example, when presenting on a large monitor or projector, it is important to use larger fonts and high-contrast colors to ensure that your presentation is readable from a distance.
When presenting on a smartphone or tablet, it is important to use a simplified layout and avoid using too much text or complex graphics. This will ensure that your presentation is easy to read on a smaller screen.
When presenting in a large room, it is important to use a laser pointer to highlight key points on your slides and ensure that your audience can follow along. Additionally, it is important to practice your presentation beforehand to ensure that you are comfortable with the space and can adjust your pacing accordingly.
In conclusion, optimizing your PowerPoint presentation for different audiences requires careful planning and attention to detail. By preparing speaker notes and handouts and adapting to different presentation environments, you can ensure that your message is delivered effectively and your audience is engaged throughout the presentation.
Advanced Productivity Techniques in PowerPoint
As someone who frequently works with PowerPoint presentations, I have found that using advanced productivity techniques can save a lot of time and effort. Here are some of my favorite techniques that can help you edit notes in PowerPoint more efficiently.
Using keyboard shortcuts can be a great way to speed up your workflow. For example, pressing “Alt + F5” will start your slideshow from the current slide, while “Ctrl + Shift + H” will highlight the text in your notes page. These shortcuts can save you time and make it easier to navigate through your presentation.
When editing notes in PowerPoint, it’s important to keep your text formatting consistent. You can use the “Format Painter” tool to quickly copy and paste formatting from one section to another. Additionally, you can use the “Find and Replace” tool to quickly change formatting across your entire presentation.

How to Print PPT with Notes: A Step-by-Step Guide
When we’re gearing up to present our work, the last thing we want is for our audience to miss the good bits. That’s why printing out a PowerPoint presentation with notes can be a real game changer. Microsoft PowerPoint makes it easy to print slides along with those handy speaker notes. Not only does it keep us on track during the presentation, but it also gives the audience a tangible take-home filled with all those extra nuggets of information.
![how to add notes on presentations A computer screen displaying a PowerPoint presentation with notes. A printer nearby, printing out the slides and accompanying notes](https://koala.sh/api/image/v2-c9t0l-cc79n.jpg?width=1216&height=832&dream)
Imagine the nods you’ll get when you hand out those laser-sharp slides, each one generously coupled with your insightful commentary printed right below. It screams professionalism and, let’s be honest, it’s a relief not to ramble trying to remember that vital point you wrote at 2 AM the night before. PowerPoint’s print function is more than just a pretty page. It’s your presentation’s sidekick, making sure you and your audience stay glued to the story you’re telling.
Getting those slides print-ready is a breeze.
We know once you’ve got the know-how, it’s a piece of cake. But here’s a little secret: many people zoom through the PowerPoint journey without tapping into the goldmine of the ‘Notes Page’ print option. It’s not just about choosing the right printer settings or color options, it’s about giving your notes the spotlight they deserve. And we’re here to do just that – turn those slides from monologues into dialogues, so that your voice comes through loud and clear, even on paper.

Preparing Your PowerPoint Slides for Printing
![how to add notes on presentations A laptop displaying a PowerPoint presentation with notes, a printer ready to print, and a stack of paper for printing](https://koala.sh/api/image/v2-c9t1a-ftgoj.jpg?width=1216&height=832&dream)
Before hitting that print button, let’s ensure our slides look sharp on paper. First things first, we’ve got to duck into our print layout settings. Here, we decide whether our notes cozy up beside our slides or hang out below them.
We want our presentation’s best foot forward, so orientation and slide layout are huge. Landscape mode gives us a roomier canvas for our content, but if portrait fits better, go for it! No shame in shaking things up.
Color me beautiful—or practical. We can stick with vibrant color to make our graphics pop, or swing to grayscale to save on ink. And size does matter—paper size, that is. We’ll pick one that plays nice with our printer.
Cracking the code on font is a cinch. We’ll keep our text legible, opting for a clear, no-nonsense font and a size that grandma could read without squinting. Remember, though, our animations are stage-shy in print, so they’ll bow out gracefully.
Now, let’s fiddle with those printer settings to ensure our images and graphics emerge looking top-notch. Make no mistake—we’ll guard those visuals like they’re the crown jewels.
To sum up, we’re setting the stage for our PowerPoint to transition smoothly from screen to print. A quick run-through of print layouts, colors, fonts, and orientations, and we’re golden. With everything neatly laid out and double-checked, we’re all set. Let’s print with confidence!
Choosing the Right Printing Options
When it comes to printing our PowerPoint presentations with notes, the details matter—we want to make sure that we choose the right settings so our notes are as clear and useful as they can be.
Notes Pages and Speaker Notes
Full page slides and handouts.
Printing full page slides is a piece of cake. However, when we want to mix things up and create handouts with multiple slides per page, we dive into the ‘Print Layout’ options and select ‘Handouts.’ Here’s the scoop: depending on how many slides per page, we can also choose to print them horizontally or vertically on the page. Fancy, right?
Collating and Print Order Settings
When we have a stack of documents to print, collating is like having an assistant who arranges the pages so we don’t have to play a game of 52-card pickup with our slides. Always ensure ‘Collate’ is selected in the print settings to avoid a mix-up. For those back-to-back meetings, we might want to consider two-sided printing to save paper—mother nature will thank us! Adjusting the number of copies is as simple as entering the desired number before hitting that print button.
Enhancing Readability for Printed Outputs
When we bring our PowerPoint presentations to the physical world, ensuring that our printouts are crisp and clear is paramount. Let’s deep-dive into how we can use color effectively and prepare our text and images for the best possible print output.
Effective Use of Color and Grayscale
While our screens light up with color, it doesn’t always translate well to paper. If we’re not splashing out on color prints, we need to fine-tune our grayscale options. We can all agree, nobody likes a muddled mix of grays that make our pie charts look like a smudged thumbprint!
- Adjust the brightness and contrast of images to avoid washed-out grays.
- Utilize patterns and textures in charts and graphs to differentiate elements.
- Convert colorful slides to grayscale within PowerPoint to preview and tweak.
Optimizing Text and Images for Print
We’ve all seen too small or too blurry text in print. Imagine squinting at that teeny-tiny font—our audience shouldn’t need a magnifying glass! For images, let’s ditch those pixelated puzzles. Crisp and clear is how we roll.
Printing from Different Devices and Platforms
When we’re gearing up to print our PowerPoint slides with notes, it’s like prepping for a road trip—each device is a different vehicle that’ll get us there, but the route changes slightly. Let’s talk about how we navigate these paths.
Regardless of the road we’re on, previewing is like glancing at our GPS before hitting the gas. In Windows, we use the Print Preview to double-check our work. Mac lovers, don’t worry—hitting Preview is akin to peeking under the hood before revving up.
And there we have it, friends. Whether we’re team Windows, ride-or-die Mac, or web wanderers, we’ve got the tools to ensure our PowerPoint notes roll out smoothly onto paper, just the way we planned.

Selection of hardcover books on shelf
According to an article in The Atlantic , bestselling author âStephen King spends âmonths and even yearsâ writing opening sentences.â
Yet the opening sentences in most presentations are typically one of these:
- âAnd now, let me turn the floor over to Mary Smith, our Vice President of Marketing.â âHi, Iâm Mary Smith, the Vice President of Marketing.â
- âGood morning. Iâve come here today to talk about the industry-leading bells and whistles of our new product/service.â
- âGood morning. First, Iâd like to talk about X, and then Y, and, last but not least, Z.â
- âGood morning. I just realized that I left my speaker notes in the Uber, so Iâm going to have to wing it.â
Itâs likely that only minutes or secondsâif thatâwere spent on those opening sentences; and equally likely that the result was a horror story that would challenge Stephen King.
The four examples failed for the following reasons:
- Repeated information that indicates poor communication between the presenters
- Itâs all about you and not the audience
- A laundry list
- Lack of preparation
A.O. Scott, who spent nearly a quarter of a century at a film critic for The New York Times and is now a critic at large for their Book Review, knows a thing or two about the importance of capturing an audienceâs attention early. In a recent article on the use of literary allusions in the titles of books, (Admit it, you do judge a book by its cover!) he wrote, â Perhaps the frisson of cleverness (I know where thatâs from!), or the flip-side cringe of ignorance (I should know where thatâs from!), is enough to spur you to buy a book, the way a search-optimized headline compels you to click a link. After all, titles are especially fertile ground for allusion-mongering. The name of a book becomes more memorable when it echoes something you might have heard â or think you should have heard â before.â

It is equally important that, like a book cover, you must capture your audienceâs attention immediately. Literary allusions to the rescue. âI know where thatâs fromâ rings a bell in the audienceâs mind and gets their attention.
Here are some famous literary allusions and how you can use them in your business presentations:
- âWhat weâve got here is a failure to communicate,â a phrase from the 1967 Paul Newman film Cool Hand Luke, could be used to pitch an improved communication system.
- âIf you build it, they will come,â a phrase from the 1989 Kevin Costner film Field of Dreams , could be used to pitch a request to green light a new project.
- âControl our own destiny,â a phrase from the 1823 Monroe Doctrine in which the United States established independence from European colonialism, could be used to pitch the spinoff of a unit of a larger company into an independent line of business.
- âThe skyâs the limitâ a phrase from Miguel Cervantesâ 1605 Don Quixote , could be used to pitch the potential of a new market.
- âNeither a borrower nor a lender be,â from Willam Shakespeareâs Hamlet could be to pitch new financial planning software.
To paraphrase A.O. Scott, your words become more memorable to your audience when they echo something they might have heard â or think they should have heard â before.
