Get a PowerPoint template designed for your consulting practice. Before you do this step, you obviously want to have a logo designed, and have a color scheme designed and chosen for your practice. 

Once you have that done, you can go ahead and get a PowerPoint template designed. You don’t want to use just PowerPoint out of the box obviously.
