2. Streamline appendix sections and top-line reports

We understand the struggle of being submerged in the laborious task of producing endless slides for an appendix section or top-line summary reports. Clients often demand a chart for every data cut, leading to hours spent on slides that seem to offer minimal value.

Imagine, an experienced researcher spending days meticulously crafting a 100-slide appendix section, all while valuable time slips away from delivering actionable insights. But fear not – SlideGen has your back.

With our "repeat slide" feature, simply set up a slide once, and with just a couple of clicks, watch as it effortlessly replicates across all your tables and banner groups.

But wait, it gets better. Some of our customers are raving about how these chart libraries produced in SlideGen have become their go-to starting point for new reports, enabling them to visually explore the data and uncover compelling stories.

3. Energise your Market Research trackers

Whether you're a fan or not, tracking studies are an essential part of the Market Research landscape. But let's face it – updating these studies wave after wave can feel like a never-ending chore.

Instead of tediously updating your reports manually, why not set them up once in SlideGen and effortlessly swap out the data with each new wave? It's a game-changer.

By automating this process, you not only save precious time but also give your profit margins a healthy boost. Now, that's what I call a win-win situation.

4. Take back control: Interim to final reports

Let's talk about time management – a precious commodity in the world of Market Research. Picture this: you're juggling multiple projects, all reaching critical reporting stages simultaneously and there is nothing you can do about it.

With SlideGen, you can seize control of your schedule. Instead of waiting for everything to kick-off, why not get ahead of the game? Prepare interim reports using the available data and SlideGen's intuitive interface.

Using the "switch data" feature, you can seamlessly update those interim reports with final data as soon as it's ready. No more scrambling at the last minute to put together reports for multiple clients.

But wait, there's more! By completing your quality checks and ironing out any kinks in table production during the interim phase, you'll ensure smooth sailing when crunch time hits.
