Create Images Using PowerPoint
Use PowerPoint to create original images. If you’re proficient in using PowerPoint, this might be a good option for you to try.
PowerPoint’s graphics and editing tools allow you to add shapes, create charts, smart art or infographics that can help illustrate your content. It’s great for creating infographics, too. You can even customize the size of your image or remove the background from an image. Then just save your slide as an image and you’re good to go.
If you’re already using PowerPoint for presentations, you can even repurpose an existing slide for your marketing purposes. Or you can save multiple slides as images and then combine them into one image, or create templates in PowerPoint to create new images quickly that are easily recognizable as your brand or law firm.
