Goodbye Powerpoint: Hello Bunkr

Here's some good news for Virtual Assistants & Personal Assistants!

I've never had a problem using PowerPoint; essentially it got the job done and there were no real alternatives after all.  Well I'm happy to say all that has changed!

I'm currently trialling a new cloud-based app called "Bunkr".  It's the brainchild of two Frenchmen, Edouard Petit and Alexis Jamet, and has had a meteoric rise since it's conception in 2012. 

Edouard & Jamet both had jobs with advertising agencies prior to launching their product and were always having to make presentations.  From their point of view they felt the process could be streamlined and made a lot simpler. 

Having tested Bunkr on about 300 companies in 2012, initial feedback was so encouraging that they left their jobs and worked full-time on their product.  By September of last year they'd already attracted 200 paid subscribers, mostly from France, the UK and the US. 

Bunkr has the benefit of being simpler to use than Powerpoint.  It's also possible to collect content whilst browsing the Internet and add it to a database using a Bookmarklet.  When you come to build your next presentation all you need do is draw on the content you've already saved and drag it into your slides.  Bunkr have kept the Powerpoint slide format: it worked and people were familiar with it.  

A Bunkr presentation is also incredibly easy to share and send via email, for example, which is great for us virtual assistants if, for example, your client is on the way to a meeting and needs some last-minute updates and amendments sending through.   

Here's a little presentation for you from Edouard.
