If a picture is worth a thousand words, and a word can paint a picture, how can you make your presentation decks priceless?

Join former CNBC and Emmy award-winning news anchor Sydnie Kohara and brand strategist Lisa Boquiren for a presentation on how to make your message land well with your intended audience. Through before-and-after examples, Sydnie and Lisa will demonstrate how you can draw in your audience by painting a picture with words, and visuals.

Learn to hone the “phases of architecture” and photography techniques to tell a compelling story for your next presentation or client interview. By using what’s already in their design and business development tool kits, architects and designers–and the marketers who work with them–can polish their storytelling techniques for an online audience.
