When giving a presentation, you need to go after two main objectives: to convey information and avoid yawns. To do this, it can be good practice to make an outline and use words that will be imprinted in the memories of your audience. If you want to add additional information or develop the content in detail, you can do this with your verbal presentation. We recommend training your voice and rehearsing; the best improvisation happens when you’re prepared! Showing enthusiasm, smiling, and maintaining eye contact with your audience can be your best allies when it comes to telling stories that excite and capture the audience's interest: 'The eyes, chico. They never lie'. This will help you connect with your audience. Knock their socks off!

Do you want to customize your branching scenario? Here are some tips:

• Before editing the branching scenario itself, edit in the outline first. This way you’ll get an overview and know which questions and answers go on each page.
• When editing, follow the order of the pages, from the first page or question until you reach the final pages.

Take a look at the structure of this branching scenario. Each page has a number associated with it, contains a question, and leads to several answer options. If on page 4 they choose option A, they go to page 5. But if they choose option B, they go to page 6, which contains a different question. This branching scenario is set up so that if you keep the structure the way it is, there’s no need to edit the interactivity or connections between pages. But you can also modify them. For example, imagine you want to add an option C to the question on page 5, and if they choose this option, they skip to the question on page 10. You’ll just need to set up the 'Go to page' interactivity from option C so that it jumps directly to page 10. As you can see, the most important thing when creating your branching scenario will be planning it well and assigning a number to each page before beginning to edit it. This way, you’ll be able to modify the connections very easily.
