Listen. PowerPoints suck. You know it. I know it. We all know it. And it’s not because they’re inherently flawed from inception. They’ve served us well for several decades! It’s because it’s now 2025, and in this 2025 world of fast paced info sharing, youtube tutorials and viral TikTok videos, they’re just too boring to do their job.
The tool itself isn’t flawed, the audience has simply evolved, and you need something that evolves along side it. The good news is…there’s a better, more efficient, more productive, more engaging way to share your work, and it’s something you’re already very familiar with!
You’ve sat through presentations that put you to sleep, drowning you in bullet points and numbing you with charts. It’s time to admit it: traditional PowerPoint decks aren’t just boring—they’re failing your business.
Consider these powerful insights from leading experts:
- “Facts tell, but stories sell.” — Bryan Eisenberg, Marketing Expert & Author
- “Stories constitute the single most powerful weapon in a leader’s arsenal.” — Howard Gardner, Harvard Professor & Psychologist
- “If you tell me, it’s an essay. If you show me, it’s a story.” — Barbara Greene, Storytelling Expert
- “Data can persuade people, but it doesn’t inspire them to act; to do that, you need to wrap your vision in a story.” — Nancy Duarte, Presentation Expert & Author of Resonate
It’s time for something better: impact videos. These videos captivate audiences, clarify your message, and inspire action. Here’s the no-BS reason why these storytelling videos crush outdated slide decks every time:
Why Traditional PowerPoints and Slide Decks are Hurting You
PowerPoints worked great…in 2002. Today, they cause:
- Audience Disconnect: Endless text, static images, and predictable slides kill interest fast.
- Confusion Overload: Complex information gets buried and misunderstood.
- Zero Emotional Impact: Bullet points don’t inspire action—they just encourage yawns.
How Storytelling Videos Solve These Issues
Corporate storytelling videos take advantage of our natural inclination to connect with narratives. They:
- Engage viewers immediately: Visually rich, story-driven videos grab and hold your audience’s attention.
- Simplify complex information: Even the most complicated data becomes clear when presented within an engaging narrative.
- Create emotional impact: Stories tap into emotions, driving stronger recall, greater engagement, and more meaningful responses
Real-World Results from Storytelling Videos
Companies adopting corporate storytelling videos are already seeing tangible benefits:
- Increased retention rates of key messages
- Improved audience participation and attention
- Faster internal decision-making and stakeholder buy-in
Don’t believe me? Just ask Dave Fish, Ph.D social psychologist and CEO of CuriosityCX, whose frequent partnership with Trippool Media has pioneered the kind of data driven, edutainment video presentations that have changed the Market Research industry:
My firm regularly partners with Trippool on a number of very high visibility projects for several global 10 firms. To say this one particular project was a success is an understatement. The film was so successful that Curiosity (and by extension Trippool) has been
recognize as Supplier of Year for Innovation by the client group.
