Layout Pattern
Bullet List
Structured text content with clear hierarchy. The workhorse of business presentations when done right.
How to Use It
Bullet slides get a bad reputation, but the problem is overuse, not the format. Limit bullets to 4-5 per slide. Use progressive disclosure to control pacing. Each bullet should be a single idea, not a paragraph. Consider replacing text-heavy bullets with icon+label pairs when possible.
