I hate when I hear people say they are 'ashamed' of having to work in powerpoint. It's so ridiculous.
I work in a division of a giant corp that is all b2b. all these 'marketing' types like to think about 'ads' and 'campaigns' and so on, and making printed brochures in 4-color and it's all stupid and a waste of time and money because where the money gets made is when sales presents information to clients directly - and 90% of the time that is powerpoint. And they usually look terrible because sales is forced for the most part to do it themselves because marketing people are working on a 'campaign'.
powerpoint is where the money gets made, where the ideas get put across. If it were up to me, our organization would have good designers custom making powerpoint for sales every day. fuck printed brochures and banner ads and 'campaigns'.
and if they felt shame about it i would show them the door and get somebody who cared about designing something that matters
