The Perfect Number of Bullet Points Per slide Is...

What is the perfect number of bullet points per slide in a PowerPoint presentation.

Based on my experience testing audiences all over the world the correct number is zero.

Now you don’t have to take my word for it.

But again the ultimate test is what that is your audience.

Remember whether you put two hundred points three points one point if they don’t remember the point it’s worthless.

If you can get them to remember two three four or five points.

Be my guest.

But don’t forget test there’s simply no evidence that putting bullet points on a slide that you’re projecting while speaking to people is an effective way of communicating.
