Presentation designers turn your message into clear, persuasive slide decks for investors, sales demos, board reports and training — combining structure, on-brand visuals and readable layouts to help audiences act.

Win investor interest

Clarify the story and visual hierarchy of your pitch so investors see traction, market opportunity and the funding ask quickly.

Close more sales

Create polished sales or demo decks that keep prospects focused on benefits and next steps during meetings.

Train and onboard staff

Turn internal knowledge into structured training slides and handouts that teams can follow and reuse.

Ideas for your brief

Project ideas you can hire for

Concrete engagements you can brief a designer for — each idea lists typical deliverables so you can compare offers from freelancers.

01

Investor pitch deck (story + visuals)

A structured investor deck that clarifies problem, traction, model and the ask — designer works from your notes, financials and branding.

  • Concise investor deck (commonly 10–18 slides) with a narrative flow and slide-level messaging
  • Custom slide templates using your brand colours and typography for PowerPoint, Keynote or Google Slides
  • Simple data visualisations (charts, icons) to present traction and financials
  • Speaker notes and a slide-order checklist to support rehearsals
02

Sales or client proposal deck

A persuasive sales presentation that highlights benefits, case examples and the value proposition for specific client segments.

  • Branded sales deck tailored to your customer segment and pitch approach
  • One-page leave-behind summary or PDF export for email follow-up
  • Example slide layouts for common meeting scenarios (intro, pricing, case study)
  • Template files so your team can update slides for future proposals
03

Training, internal comms and workshop slides

Slides and handouts designed for learning: clear structure, progressive disclosure and printable materials.

  • Training slide set with clear module structure and learning objectives
  • Participant handouts or printable one-pagers summarising key points
  • Visual aids (infographics, step diagrams) to explain processes
  • Editable templates so you can refresh content later (PowerPoint, Google Slides)

Pricing guidance

How much does presentation design cost?

Indicative NZD price ranges to help you budget. Final scope and rates are agreed directly with the freelancer.

Slide refresh or small deck

Suitable for an existing deck that needs layout, brand polish and a handful of new slides; often charged as a small flat fee or limited hourly engagement.

NZ$400–1,200

Standard pitch or sales deck

A full redesign and narrative tidy-up for an investor or sales deck with custom visuals and reusable templates.

NZ$1,200–6,000

Strategic deck with messaging support

End-to-end pitch development that includes messaging, revisions, advanced data visualisation and presentation coaching; typical for capital-raising or public-keynote work.

NZ$6,000–15,000+

What affects the price

  • Slide count and complexity of content (financial tables, custom data visualisations take more time).
  • How much messaging or copywriting help you need versus supplied copy.
  • Custom artwork, illustrations or brand design work required alongside slides.
  • Turnaround time and the need for multiple review rounds or stakeholder sign-offs.

Estimates are indicative, may exclude GST and ongoing software or platform fees, and final scope and rates are agreed directly with the freelancer. Request a tailored quote when you post your brief.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions before you hire.

Answers to the questions clients commonly ask before starting a brief.

Still deciding what you need?

Start with the outcome and the context you already have. A polished specification is not required.

How long will a typical project take?

Small refreshes can be completed in a few days; full pitch redesigns usually take one to three weeks depending on review rounds and how quickly you provide feedback.

Should I hire a general graphic designer or a presentation specialist?

Graphic designers can handle slide layout and brand consistency; presentation specialists focus on slide storytelling and data visualisation—choose based on whether you need messaging structure or primarily visual polish.

Who owns the slides and assets after the job?

Ownership terms are agreed between you and the freelancer. Confirm deliverables and intellectual property in the brief or contract before work begins.

How do I check a designer’s trustworthiness and quality?

Ask to see recent slide samples or case studies, check references where available, and confirm software compatibility (PowerPoint, Keynote, Google Slides) before hiring.

What happens after I submit a brief on Unicorn Factory?

Relevant freelancers will apply, you review applications, and Unicorn Factory makes warm introductions so you can pick who to engage and agree scope and price directly.
