Decktopus Pro Tips
➩ Start with a tight brief: audience, goal, tone, desired length, 5–7-bullet outline, and a clear CTA to shape the first AI draft.
➩ Generate → restructure → then style: merge/split cards and reorder sections before picking themes and fonts to avoid rework.
➩ Import first, then enhance: convert PDF → PPT, let Decktopus map sections to slides, and use “Create a slide with AI” to fill gaps.
➩ Lock aspect + export path early: decide online present vs. PDF/PPT hand-off before heavy edits; bring custom fonts on business plans.
➩ Use AI image prompts per key slide: short, visual prompts (subject + angle/lighting + mood) beat generic stock.
➩ Pre-build Q&A cards: generate AI Q&A after your core narrative to handle objections in sales or training decks.
➩ Tighten narrative beats: use “Refine your talk” and “Craft impactful stories” to sharpen opener, transitions, and close.
➩ Recycle high-performing slides: duplicate proven hooks and pricing slides across decks; tweak only the offer/details.
