Introduction: Transforming Presentation Design with Digital Asset Management
In today’s fast-paced business world, creating impactful presentations is both an art and a science. In his engaging Present to Succeed session, Henrik Berqvist, co-founder of Pickit, reveals how Digital Asset Management (DAM) can revolutionise the way we build, share, and deliver presentations. Drawing from his experience as a designer and entrepreneur, Henrik uncovers the five biggest pain points in presentation creation—and shows how a DAM solution like Pickit can help you overcome them, boost productivity, and keep your brand on point.
Why Digital Asset Management Matters (and How Pickit Changes the Game)
Henrik’s journey began with a simple but universal problem: even the most talented professionals struggle to find the right assets, maintain brand consistency, and avoid the dreaded “formatting jungle.” For Henrik, the answer was clear—centralise everything. Pickit’s DAM platform is more than a file repository; it’s a productivity engine that empowers teams to access, organise, and use their digital assets directly within PowerPoint and other platforms. Why do so many presentations fall short? Henrik believes it’s because we spend too much time searching for files and not enough time crafting our message.
The Five Pain Points of Presentation Creation (and How to Solve Them)
Henrik’s session centers on five core challenges that plague anyone who builds presentations. Here’s how he breaks them down:
High Ambitions, Limited Execution
Most of us start with big ideas, but lack the time, skills, or resources to bring them to life. Henrik’s solution: make professional assets and templates accessible to everyone, so even non-designers can create on-brand, visually compelling slides.
Scattered Files and Asset Chaos
Searching across hard drives, cloud folders, and emails wastes hours every month. With Pickit, all your logos, images, templates, and documents are in one place—right inside PowerPoint. No more “seven doors” to open for a single presentation.
The Formatting Jungle
Inconsistent templates and poor formatting can undermine even the best content. Pickit ensures that everyone uses the latest, brand-approved templates and assets, so your presentations always look polished and professional.
Lack of Inspiration and Guidance
Not everyone is a designer, and many users feel lost when starting a new deck. Pickit’s curated collections and easy-to-use interface help users find inspiration and build slides that align with brand guidelines—without the guesswork.
Losing Energy and Momentum
The longer it takes to build a presentation, the more energy you lose. By streamlining the process and removing friction, Pickit helps users stay focused and finish strong—so you can deliver your message with confidence.
Applying DAM: From Frustration to Flow
Henrik’s approach isn’t just for large enterprises—it’s for anyone who wants to work smarter, not harder. Whether you’re a marketer, salesperson, or executive, centralising your assets and templates means less time searching and more time creating. Henrik demonstrates how Pickit integrates with PowerPoint, Word, Teams, and even Google Slides, making it easy to access everything you need, wherever you work.

Final Thoughts: Make Every Presentation Count
Henrik’s closing advice is simple: impactful presentations start with the right foundation. By centralising your assets, using brand-approved templates, and streamlining your workflow, you can move from frustration to flow—and make every presentation an opportunity to shine. If you want to save time, boost productivity, and ensure brand consistency, it’s time to explore what Digital Asset Management can do for you.
