What It Means
This phrase is your best friend during any presentation. It tells people exactly where to look right now. You are moving from one idea to a new one. It acts like a bridge for your listeners' eyes. It connects your spoken words to the images on screen. Think of it as a verbal pointer for everyone. It signals that a new chapter is starting now. You are guiding your audience through a visual journey. It makes complex information much easier to follow and understand.
How To Use It
Say it exactly when you click your presentation remote. Don't wait too long after the new image appears. Keep your voice steady, clear, and very confident. It helps people focus on the fresh data immediately. You can point at the screen for extra emphasis. It makes you look like a very prepared speaker. Practice the timing so it feels totally natural. You want the words and the image to match. This creates a professional and polished feeling for everyone. It is a simple way to sound like an expert.
When To Use It
Use it in a high-stakes professional business meeting. It works perfectly for your university or school projects. Use it during online webinars or big Zoom calls. Even showing vacation photos to your family counts! It keeps every person in the room on track. It prevents people from getting lost in your talk. Use it whenever you have a visual aid. It is great for highlighting a specific chart or photo. It works well in both small and large groups. It is a universal signal for 'look here.'
When NOT To Use It
Don't use it if you have no slides. That would be very confusing for your audience. Avoid it if you are just chatting over coffee. If the projector screen is blank, stay silent. It sounds quite silly if there is no visual. Don't use it for every single slide change. Mix it up to keep the energy high. Overusing it can make you sound like a robot. If you are showing a physical object, don't say slide. If you are just telling a story, keep it conversational.
