Stage 1
Every great presentation starts with a clear goal and a compelling narrative arc. These prompts help you define your objective, design the story structure, and plan the slide count before touching a slide deck.
Presentation goal and audience framing
I need to create a presentation on [TOPIC] for [AUDIENCE]. My goal is to [DESIRED OUTCOME: persuade/inform/pitch/train]. Duration: [LENGTH] minutes. Help me define: the single most important takeaway the audience should leave with, the 3 key questions this presentation must answer, the right level of technical depth for this audience, and the emotional state I want to create (inspired, informed, convinced). Use this to frame the entire structure.
Narrative arc development
Help me build the narrative arc for a [TYPE] presentation on [TOPIC] for [AUDIENCE]. Don't just give me a list of topics, give me a story structure: what's the opening tension or problem, how does the middle build understanding or urgency, what's the turning point or key insight, and how does the ending resolve with a clear call to action. Map this arc to an approximate number of slides.
Slide count and section planning
I'm creating a [LENGTH]-minute presentation on [TOPIC] for [AUDIENCE]. Help me plan the slide structure: how many slides total (with reasoning), major sections and their purpose, slide count allocation per section, and which sections need detail slides vs. visual-only slides. The goal is to keep the audience engaged without rushing or running long. Format as a structured outline.
Opening and closing design
Write 3 different opening slide concepts and 3 closing slide concepts for a presentation on [TOPIC] for [AUDIENCE]. For openings: one stat-led, one story-led, one question-led. Each should immediately establish why this topic matters to this specific audience. For closings: one CTA-focused, one inspirational, one summary-with-next-steps. Include the exact text and a description of the visual concept for each.
Executive summary slide
Create a one-slide executive summary for a presentation on [TOPIC]. The audience is [AUDIENCE] who may not sit through the full deck. This slide must communicate: the core problem or opportunity, the recommended solution or key finding, the main benefit or result, and the ask or next step. Use bullet points of 5 words or fewer. No jargon. It should stand alone as a complete story.
Stage 2
Turn your structure into sharp slide content that communicates clearly and keeps the audience engaged. These prompts help you write headlines, develop data slides, craft problem-solution sequences, and tell customer stories.
Full slide-by-slide content plan
Create a slide-by-slide content plan for a [LENGTH]-slide presentation on [TOPIC] for [AUDIENCE]. For each slide provide: slide number, slide title (5 words max), the one thing the slide communicates, 2-3 bullet points or key content, speaker note cues, and recommended visual type (chart, image, icon, quote). The presentation goal is [GOAL].
Data visualization slide direction
I have the following data to present: [DATA/FINDINGS]. Help me turn it into 3 compelling presentation slides. For each, suggest: the best chart or visual type for the data, the headline insight to put above the chart (not a description, but the conclusion), supporting bullet points, and how to make the data immediately readable for [AUDIENCE] in under 5 seconds.
Problem-solution slide set
Write content for a problem-solution slide sequence for a [PITCH/PROPOSAL/STRATEGY] presentation. Problem slide: make the audience feel the pain clearly, using a relatable scenario or shocking stat. Solution slide: introduce [PRODUCT/APPROACH] as the clear answer, with 3 key differentiators. Results slide: show the proof or expected outcomes with specific numbers. Use crisp, punchy language throughout.
Slide headline rewriting
Rewrite these slide headlines to be more compelling and insight-driven: [LIST OF CURRENT HEADLINES]. Current headlines are descriptive (telling what the slide is about). Rewrite each to deliver the KEY INSIGHT or CONCLUSION of that slide, so the audience understands the point even if they only read the headline. Each headline should be under 10 words and make a clear assertion.
Storytelling slide narrative
Help me write a customer story or case study narrative across 3-4 slides for my presentation on [TOPIC]. Customer/scenario: [BRIEF DESCRIPTION]. The story should follow: Before (the problem they faced), Journey (what they did or changed), After (the results they achieved). Write the slide headlines and bullet points, and include a pull quote that captures the transformation in one sentence.
Stage 3
Great slides mean nothing without a confident delivery. These prompts help you write speaker notes, prepare for tough questions, manage timing, and polish your language for executive presence.
Full speaker notes for each slide
Write speaker notes for each slide in this presentation: [PASTE SLIDE TITLES/CONTENT]. For each slide, the notes should include: the opening transition sentence from the previous slide, key talking points to expand on the bullet points, a specific example or story if helpful, any questions the audience might have and how to address them, and the transition to the next slide. Keep each note under 100 words.
Opening minute script
Write a word-for-word script for the opening 90 seconds of my presentation on [TOPIC] for [AUDIENCE]. It should: open with something that immediately earns attention (not "Hello, I'm..."), establish why this topic matters right now, preview what the audience will learn, and build credibility for me as the presenter. My background: [BRIEF CREDENTIALS]. Tone: [TONE].
Q&A preparation
I'm presenting on [TOPIC] to [AUDIENCE]. Generate the 10 most likely tough questions they'll ask after my presentation, ranked from most to least challenging. For each question, give me: a concise 2-3 sentence answer, a bridge phrase to use if I'm caught off guard, and a flag if the question likely signals skepticism that I should address in the main presentation before it comes up.
Presentation timing guide
My presentation on [TOPIC] has [NUMBER] slides and I have [MINUTES] to present. Create a timing guide that: allocates minutes per section (not per slide), identifies which sections I can cut if running long, marks which slides should be fast vs. deserve full discussion, and suggests 2-3 slides to make optional appendix slides. Also give me 5 phrases I can use to manage time mid-presentation.
Executive presence language polish
Review these speaker notes and rewrite them for executive presence: [PASTE NOTES]. Changes to make: replace hedge words (might, could, maybe) with confident language, cut unnecessary filler phrases, replace complex jargon with clear plain language, add power pauses where the audience needs to absorb something, and add specific direction for voice, pace, or gesture where the moment calls for it.
Stage 4
Make your presentation look as good as it sounds. These prompts help you define visual concepts, reduce slide clutter, optimize layouts, and create leave-behind materials that work without you in the room.
Visual concept for each section
I'm designing slides for a presentation on [TOPIC]. My brand colors are [COLORS] and style is [FORMAL/CASUAL/CREATIVE]. For each major section ([LIST SECTION TITLES]), suggest: a visual metaphor or imagery concept, icon style recommendations, whether to use photography, illustration, or data viz, and a layout concept (full bleed image, split layout, minimal text, etc.). Make the visual language cohesive throughout.
Google Slides layout recommendations
I'm building this presentation in Google Slides. Recommend the best slide layout for each of these slide types: [TITLE SLIDE, DATA SLIDE, QUOTE SLIDE, AGENDA SLIDE, LIST SLIDE, CLOSING SLIDE]. For each, suggest: grid layout, font hierarchy (heading size, body size), image placement if any, and one design tip to make it look professional without a designer.
Slide copy minimization
My current slides have too much text. Here is the content for [NUMBER] slides: [PASTE SLIDE CONTENT]. Reduce each slide to: one main headline (10 words max), maximum 3 bullet points (5 words each), and identify what belongs in speaker notes vs. on-slide. Remove any bullet point that is not essential for the audience to see on screen. Show me the before and after for each slide.
Title slide and agenda slide copy
Write the copy for the title slide and agenda slide of my presentation. Title slide: presentation is on [TOPIC], presenting to [AUDIENCE], at [EVENT/CONTEXT], my name and title is [NAME, TITLE]. Create 3 versions of the title: one question-based, one statement-based, one intrigue-based. Agenda slide: the main sections are [SECTIONS]. Write the agenda using active, benefit-driven language rather than neutral topic labels.
One-pager leave-behind summary
Create a one-page leave-behind summary of my presentation on [TOPIC]. Based on these key points: [MAIN POINTS]. The one-pager should include: a headline that captures the main message, 3-4 key takeaways in bullet form, a single data point or visual that anchors the story, next steps or recommendations, and my contact information placeholder. Format it so it reads well without the presentation context.
Yes. Gemini can take you from a topic and audience through to a complete slide-by-slide content plan, speaker notes, and visual direction. Use the prompts in this guide in sequence: start with narrative structure, then generate slide content, then add speaker notes. You provide the direction; Gemini provides the content framework.
Gemini is built into Google Workspace, including Google Slides, if you have a Google Workspace account with Gemini enabled. You can use Gemini directly inside Slides to generate content, suggest layouts, and create speaker notes. The prompts in this guide work both inside Slides and in the standalone Gemini chat interface.
Generic output comes from generic prompts. Always specify: the exact audience, their concerns or objections, your unique angle on the topic, and real data or examples you want included. Ask Gemini to avoid cliches, and review its output with the question: "would a human expert in this area be embarrassed by this slide?" If yes, push for more specificity.
Give Gemini a sample of how you naturally speak, either by pasting a previous script or describing your style (e.g., "conversational, lots of real examples, avoids corporate buzzwords"). The more context you give about your speaking style, the more the notes will sound like you rather than a generic presenter.
Gemini works well for pitch decks, strategy presentations, sales decks, training materials, conference talks, and stakeholder updates. It is especially strong at structuring argument-driven presentations where the narrative arc matters. For highly technical presentations with complex data, plan to heavily edit the structure and add your own analysis.
