"Visual" Visuals

The images below, taken from Visual Selling, give examples of images that can be used to illustrate points.  With the exception of the last, graphics are by Constance Lee Trojnar-Gauba.

Smoking and Impotency

An image is more powerful than the words: "Smoking causes sexual impotency."

Retired Workers Working

An image can emphasize an important number "... more than half of retirees found they must continue working."

Highly Leveraged

Images dramatize difficult technical terms, such as financial leverage.

Tough Vehicle

Images can imply what can't be said in words, such as "Our tough vehicle can drive anywhere."

Starving Child

Images can stir emotions much faster than words.

We build Buildings

An image can start "talking" even before the presenter starts speaking.

Social Security Funding

Images like pictograms can also convey numerical relationships quickly and memorably.

Minarcik's Qualifications in Words

Having sentence after sentence deliver the message is a bad strategy.

Minarcik's Qualifications Visually

Using images, the presenter gives the candidate's qualifications and the screen reinforces key elements.

Power and Control

A striking image can dramatically drive home a message, in this case, the sprinter in red high heels with the message "Power is nothing without control."
