I store more than 24,000 songs in my iTunes library yet it takes me just a few seconds to build a playlist. To find the right songs I just drill into the library by genre, artist, album, song title or search by keyword, then click and drag them into into a playlist in the desired order. And, more often than not, I will use the same song in more than one playlist.
SlideManager works a lot like ITunes, but instead of managing songs it manages slides, and instead of building playlists, it builds PowerPoint presentations. I use ITunes for fun. SlideManager is all business. SlideManager is Presentation Management.
With the right library design in SlideManager you can easily build a presentation in less than two minutes. You click on categories and drill down to just the right slide for the audience and presentation objective. The library gives you slide choices and keeps the story flow in order. And slides can appear in multiple categories, just like my songs in ITunes. You only have to maintain one version of a slide - worldwide.
While building a library for your presenters, you can create a library for your administrators to make slide management a breeze. Group slides into categories for easy access by your subject matter experts and create categories like "Slides to update quarterly" to quickly access slides that change. Then, or instead, you can organize slides by 'Owner' for worry free maintenance. Lock slides together into "sets" to keep message segments intact or comply with regulatory requirements when necessary.
With SlideManager, libraries are easy to build and easy to change, assuring your presenters that they will have a playlist for every occasion. And with a little planning, building presentations can be like listening to your favorite iTunes playlist.
