How to Navigate the Main Sections of EllenFinkelstein.com
Updated
EllenFinkelstein.com is the home site of presentation-skills expert Ellen Finkelstein, and its main sections are reachable from a single top menu: Home, Blog, Tips, E-Store, Training, Contact, About, and Advertise. Use this guide to decide which entry point matches what you need — free reading, a purchase, or training sign-up.
The top menu at a glance
| Menu item | What it's for | Go here when you want to… |
|---|---|---|
| Home | Landing page for the site | Start at the beginning or see what's featured |
| Blog | Articles and posts | Read ongoing content on presentations and PowerPoint |
| Tips | Free tips and resources | Browse free, practical how-to material |
| E-Store | Products for purchase | Buy a product rather than just read |
| Training | Team and 1-on-1 training | Improve your presentations with guided instruction |
| Contact | Reach the site owner | Ask a question or get in touch |
| About | Background on Ellen Finkelstein | Check credentials and experience |
| Advertise | Advertising information | Inquire about promoting something on the site |
The site's own framing asks, "Are Presentations CRUCIAL to Your Success?" — and the menu is organized around that split: free content on one side (Blog, Tips), paid or guided help on the other (E-Store, Training).
If you want free content first
Start with Blog and Tips. These are the browsing sections for readers who want to learn without committing to a purchase or a training engagement. The site also offers a free subscription to the PowerPoint Tips Newsletter, described as delivering "regular tips and resources relevant to presenters and PowerPoint users." Note the site's own instruction: if you don't receive an email from [email protected], check your spam folder or the Gmail Promotions tab.
If you want training or a product
- Training is the entry point for team and 1-on-1 training, positioned as instruction from "one of the top experts in the United States."
- E-Store is where purchase-related activity lives.
- The PPT-EF.com home page carries a "Get the Training Now" entry, so training sign-up is reachable from more than one place.
Testimonials on the site describe the training experience in practical terms. Mel Velez, a director at Citrix Systems, describes working with Ellen to build a theme and story from his presentation ideas, and says his manager complimented the resulting decks. Samuel Boothby, PhD, notes she "walked the talk" by using slides to demonstrate her own slide advice.
If you need background or contact
