3 FREE Tools to Create ENGAGING Presentations!

- 🥱 Attention spans during presentations MAX OUT at 10 minutes, so how do you stop the audience from tuning out 20 seconds into yours?
In this video I’ll show you 3 FREE Tools to Create ENGAGING Presentations that will hook your audience in right at the start, keep them engaged throughout, and leave them wanting more at the end.
At the beginning of my presentations, I like to poll the audience using Mentimeter. I try my best to ask some funny “punny” questions to lighten the mood and get in some quick laughs right at the beginning
During the presentation, I usually leave a Sli.do QR code on my slides so the audience can leave their questions within the Q&A queue. This way, they won’t interrupt me during the presentation nor will they forget the questions they wanted to ask
At the end, I like to use Kahoot to quiz the audience to see whether or not they’ve been paying attention. Kahoot has been around for a while now and has evolved quite a bit over the past few years but I still use it for its game / quiz / competition features 🎮

Used these tips to introduce myself to my girlfriend’s parents and now I’m married.
Omg it's the world-renowned David Dai!!!!!!!!!
🤣🤣🤣🤣
That's awesome 😀
Could you recommend such parents who has a potential girl to get married? I am also ready to introduce myself after watching this so great useful informative video 😉🤝😀
Slido is the best. You can insert slido slides (with different question types) into you presentation in google slide so you will not need to switch between tools. Also, you can insert slido slides throughout your presentation and it will be more engaging.
Oooooo I should have added that feature (Slido Google Slides) into the video. Dam. Thanks for letting me know!!
As a teacher I'm going to steal all this, master it, and then use it as a presentation to train other staff. We need to increase student engagement and stop fighting over cell phones.
Steal away my friend 😁
Oh, man, the Q&A feature in Slido is a gem! Thanks for the tip!
Yea it's a great feature!! I love the upvote feature the most haha, so there aren't any duplicated questions
@Jeff Su : I have no idea how and/or who makes your videos. But if you put together a team; well, they are talented. And if you are alone, then you are a genius: In both cases, on a not so exciting subject... It's funny, intelligent, interesting and makes sense. Bravo !
I do it all myself 😁, thank you so much!
Great video Jeff! Two questions:
1. Do you find asking audiences to go to three different websites on their phones during one presentation is too much?
2. What kind of prizes do you suggest/have you offered in the past?
Love your channel!! I've gone back and watched every single video ever since I've discovered you!!
Great questions Angelina!
1. I usually say something like "if you want to win a prize...you better get to kahoot quickly" at the end hahaha. But you could stick with 1 platform if you think 3 is too much!
2. Company swag (provided by the company, could be things like pens all the ways to backpacks!)
Thank you Angelina 😁
I need to turn in a presentation tonight and you just saved me a ton of work! Crisp and to the point - instant subscribe! Thanks legend.
Awesome, best of luck! Let me know how it goes 😁
Appreciate the help. You've boosted my upcoming event to the next level! Keep doing what you're doing!

"Against their will" :D haha. That is what I need. Even me, myself and I find my own work boring to talk about.
Hahahaha what do you do? 😂
Finally early post for fans on the East coast USA 🔥🤩
Always 😁
Yooo I think you just saved my life. I'm pissed at youtube algorithm for not showing me your channel sooner.
I'm pissed the algorithm didn't show you my channel sooner 😏
"What's the deal with Jeff being single" Hahaha Pretty smooth!
Yayyy someone finally noticed!
Hi, Dear team, thank you , I was looking for free and creative way to make slides, thanks so much for input.
Stay healthy and wealthy🤗👍
You're very welcome 😁
AMAZING! I love to do better presentations and those tools blew my mind!
Happy to hear that Oliv! Best of luck in your next presentation 😁
Thank you for such an interesting video on presentations, Jeff. Also, if you could make a video on travel for work that would be very helpful..
Like packing? Haha
@@JeffSu yes lol. 😁 Packing, how to manage expenses and start communicating and assimilating with people who we meet going to meet for the first time. It's quite nerve-wracking for me. It would be very nice to hear what you do in such a situation..😄
I love your content !! I would love to learn more about your role in Google or marketing.
Thanks Ag! I'll try to share more in the future :)
Wow this is nice! will definitely use when it is time for school
Nicee! Let me know how it goes!
Thanks Jeff, helpful as usual! I was wondering if you take video requests, if so, can you do a video on the platform prezi? (Using the free version, I’m broke) anyways, thanks!
Hey Serena! Thanks so much for sharing your idea! It's currently not in my content pipeline but I'll keep it in mind :)
Ok thanks!
Thank you so much this was really helpful
You're very welcome Roberto! 😁
Thank you for this! I am about to create a presentation for my Human Behavior Class😍
Awesome! Let me know how it goes Lian!
شكرا Thanks
You're welcome!
Knew about Kahoot, we use that at our school also😊
Nice! What about the other 2? :P
@@JeffSuRest 2 were new
These are great tools! I'm especially looking for a way in-person attendees can throw their name in a hat for a prize drawing. Can you recommend any prize-drawing tools that don't require a list upload?
No unfortunately :(
Thanks!
Wow Robbie! Thanks so much!!!!!
Great video. What software or app did you use to make this video? I mean the part where you showed your screen, zoomed in and added red marks and st the same time displayed yourself on the bottom of the screen.
Random plugins I found online for final cut pro!
@@JeffSu Final Cut pro is amazing. I will try it out. Thank you.
Would you please tell me Jeff about which plateform you used to build your website ? i appreciate your response.
Ghost!
Thank you Jeff!
You're very welcome Oleg!
@@JeffSu I like your channel. You helped me so much. Thank you again! Keep it up!
Know I'm a few years late to this one, but as all 3 have essentially the same features, for example both Slido and Mentimeter can do quizzes with leaderboards, why split the presentation across these three rather than using one? Especially as most of these all cost $$$ to actually host more than a few people.
I thought mentimeter was completely free?
Love from india🥰
Yayyy thank you!
The video is amazing , but plz tell me how do you add the glow effect in the icons on ur thumbnails. Thank you
I use Canva!
Plz explain it in one of your videos. Thank you
@@praptimin8245 I'll try if I make a video on that topic!
Thank you
All your videos are amazing but do Do you think about to get more traffic’s maybe posting to the Chinese bilibili for example because I think really do deserve more people to know and learn
Thanks for the idea Camille! Honestly I don't care about traffic all that much, but yes I will consider doing B 站 in the future~
Since the pandemic, cyber fatigue has been growing. These tools are helpful.
Yes I agree! Thank you 😁
😊Hey, all of you like this guy
He is doing great.
I'm doing great because YOU'RE here 😁
2:57
Hope you enjoyed this 😁
👍🔥💯
😁😁😁
May I ask, why do you need all 3 tools? You can do EVERYTHING you showed in Slido. What is the reason for mixing them?
Variety is the spice of life 😂
OMG Harry Potter !!! I guess more people want to click the video with a Harry Potter - style thumbnail 👻 But it's now a surprise for people who have watched this video 😉 How lucky we audiences are hahaha
Hahahaha thanks Beiyu 😁😁
So what’s the deal with Jeff being single? lol I have to say this video is very engaging too
Hahahaha thank you Joyce 😁. I also don't know what the deal is either
Jeff can we also use Slido QR code for mom ?
Haha I guess you can!
♥️♥️♥️
😁😁😁
Please can u do more outside the box episode
Another one is coming out in a few days 😁
Who here remembers the first time they experienced Kahoot?
I definitely do, 4 years ago 😂, a colleague used it in a presentation and I was BLOWN away
Thank you
You're very welcome 😁
Who is your editor man? Would love to connect with him!
You're talking to him 😁
@@JeffSu oh man that’s amazing! Is there any specific plugins you can recommend to me for the titles ?
@@ginga2571 I got most of them from Videohive!
Jeff back again with another awesome tool! How do you find this stuff, Jeff? Please tell me your secrets 😂
P.S. Are you a Harry Potter fan? What’s your House? :p
It's a secret for a reason :)
I think I would probably be in either Hufflepuff or Ravenclaw hahaha
Oooh, I think those two suit you! 😁 I took this one Buzzfeed quiz a while back and it was either Ravenclaw or Slytherin for me haha
Try teaching middle school 🤪
Hahaha I actually want to be a teacher someday!
Anytime someone brings up slido and kahoot I phase out just be clear to the point and use top down communication end of the story
You mean no games, all business?
@@JeffSu
Man I think you watch too many Ted talks. In consulting the point is to be clear start with the conclusion then explain get to the point quickly have supporting slides in case you need them use action titles that are self explanatory. Everything that you didn’t mention in particular you don’t want to leave audience wanting more you need to make sure the slides fulfill their purpose and help achieve the meeting goals anyway you do you
I agree with you to a certain extent! You can be as clear and concise as you want but if the audience (the people you're trying to reach) is not engaged, they won't retain anything :(
Quiz is not important...
Why not?
