Finding content and staying oriented within a presentation network is quite easy, actually, if your organization is good and you make use of Visual Clues. Organization is a potent tool for selecting individual pieces of information, yet all the while knowing where you are.

Consider a real life experience of looking for milk in a grocery store. How do you go about finding a gallon of milk? Obviously, you don’t search aisles containing produce, hair spray, or cat food—you head straight for the refrigerators in the dairy section. In the same way, effective organizational structure tells a presenter exactly where to find a needed slide. That slide probably wouldn't make sense if placed anywhere else.

Visual Clues such as text, picture thumbnails, colors, and shapes guide the informational searching process. If your company sells products, and a link on your Main Switchboard reads PRODUCTS, it’s pretty obvious where you will go to find a product picture. If a trainer has a section for healthcare-related topics and those links are always blue and grouped together on a switchboard, then she can overlook all other colored links when searching for a healthcare topic.
