8. 8
Slide Structure - Bad
This page contains too many words for a presentation slide.
It is not written in point form, making it difficult both for
your audience to read and for you to present each point.
Although there are exactly the same number of points on
this slide as the previous slide, it looks much more
complicated. In short, your audience will spend too much
time trying to read this paragraph instead of listening to
you.

Chilean ExportsChilean Exports
• Fresh fruit leads Chile's export mix - Chile emerges as major supplier of fresh fruit to
world market due to ample natural resources, consumer demand for fresh fruit during
winter season in U.S. and Europe, and incentives in agricultural policies of Chilean
government, encouraging trend toward diversification of exports and development of
nontraditional crops - U.S. Dept. of Agriculture, Economic Research Service Report
• Chile is among the developing economies taking advantage of these trends, pursuing
a free market economy. This has allowed for diversification through the expansion of
fruit production for export, especially to the U.S. and Western Europe. Chile has
successfully diversified its agricultural sector to the extent that it is now a major fruit
exporting nation. Many countries view Chile's diversification of agriculture as a model
to be followed.
• Meanwhile, the U.S. remains the largest single market for Chile's fruit exports.
However, increasing demand from the EC and Central and East European countries
combined may eventually surpass exports to the U.S., spurring further growth in
Chile's exports.
• If you’ve read this far, your eyes probably hurt and you’ve been reading this tedious
long-winded text instead of listening to me. I’m insulted- can’t you see I’m doing a
presentation up here? Look at me! Congratulations, however, on having such good
eyesight.
