Add Content
You add the information about your business as content slides.
- a.Create a new slide after Slide 1 using the Section Header layout. Type the following in the title placeholder: Want’n Waffles provides gourmet quality food prepared on the spot in a clean mobile truck.
- b.Double-click the border of the title placeholder, then change the font size to 60 pt and apply Italic.
- c.Add the following speaker note to Slide 3: We can sell inexpensive breakfasts, lunches, and desserts because our overhead is low. We don’t have to pay for a “brick and mortar” restaurant with all of the expenses of a building. Because we don’t have to pay for servers, prices stay down while sales increase. Our trucks are a favorite with employees because they get quick service, excellent food, and the convenience of a location close to them. We are mobile so we can change location as needed to increase sales. Best of all, our food is FUN!
