In other words, it’s business time, people! Here are a few of our recent favorites, for your inspiration.
1. Haiku Deck is not just for live talks; you can also use it to create standout materials for webinars and online training sessions. Michele Mizejewski created this deck as an intro/overview for an online course she teaches for the Association of College and Research Libraries (ACRL):

3. Long emails or document attachments may or may not actually get read, so how about an image-rich marketing plan? Judy Orr of Classic Realty Group in Chicago explains why sellers should list with her firm in this Haiku Deck, which mixes her own photos with images from our dynamic image search:

4. Haiku Deck works beautifully for illustrating your organization’s values and philosophy, whether you’re a global corporation or a soulful startup.

5. In case you missed it in our roundup of the Best Decks of 2012, this Haiku Deck by Vancouver startup Tapstream is a model for the modern way to pitch your business. The team has created a dynamic, flexible content asset that can be delivered straight from an iPad or emailed, tweeted, posted, or shared. They’ve used the Notes feature brilliantly to add detail and texture to key features, stats, and product screenshots. This hard-hitting Haiku Deck is definitely worth a look:

We’ve been following all the creative ways people have been using Haiku Deck for real estate.

It’s been really fun to tune into this super innovative, tech-savvy, enthusiastic community!
In the meantime, here are a few of our favorite examples of Haiku Deck for real estate.

“Most People”

We’re huge Seth Godin fans, and we were thrilled when he embedded a Haiku Deck to complement his awesome “Most People” post. “Most people don’t care enough to make a difference….Fortunately, you’re not most people, and neither are your best customers.” (Exactly!) Read the short, sweet, gemlike post and check out the most-viewed Haiku Deck of all time here.
No, we don’t want to punch you in the face. In fact, we like you quite a bit. But trust us, this is awesome.
When Jennifer Worick–author, consultant, public speaker, and friend of Haiku Deck–launched her book Things I Want to Punch in the Face, a hilarious and wickedly satisfying collection of all things obnoxious, we knew a collaboration was in order. We collected our favorite rants into a Haiku Deck, which received more views than the book’s trailer (more than 6,400 in 4 months!) and headlined our Popular Gallery for quite a while.

“People flipped out when they saw the TIWTPITF Haiku Deck. With great images and text, the Haiku Deck is a really powerful way to convey a message in a glance. The TIWTPITF Haiku Deck distilled my book down to its cheeky essence!” Jennifer Worick, author of Things I Want to Punch in the Face
Now Jennifer has responded with a list of seasonal holiday-inspired things she’d like to punch, from themed Christmas trees to Scrooge-y misers.

We’re delighted to announce our newest Haiku Deck Guru: entrepreneur, blogger, and all-around creative force Megan Hunt, a.k.a. Princess Lasertron. Megan’s high-style Haiku Decks have been wowing us for weeks, and we finally had a chance to hear more about how she’s using the app–and how it provided blog inspiration for Radvent, her latest creative undertaking.
Haiku Deck: So, what inspired you to start using Haiku Deck?
Megan: I found out about Haiku Deck when I saw a business use it to pitch during a local Startup Weekend competition. I’m always super interested in trying new apps that seem like they’d make my life a little easier (particularly in the context of entrepreneurship). I thought Haiku Deck had a cute name and seemed promising, so I downloaded it and was immediately hooked. For me, the sparseness of the app makes it as fun to play with as it is useful. It honestly reminds me of the hours spent toying with HyperStudio as a kid. Really. It’s just fun.

Haiku Deck: Could you tell us a little bit about how you’ve been using it?
You don’t need a promo code to give the gift of Haiku Deck, or even your wallet, for that matter. For one thing, 50% off of free is still free (no tax, no shipping, no minimum purchase, no nonsense).
But more to the point, what’s magical about the holidays to us isn’t another cyberspecial or a doorbuster sale. It’s connecting and reflecting. It’s sharing beautiful stories and memories.
So here’s a thought. Put your credit card away and curl up in a cozy spot with a hot chocolate or a hot toddy. You’ll need your iPad, of course, and a little Peggy Lee in the background never hurt anybody. In just a few minutes you can create a unique, beautiful gift from your heart for someone you care about.
Need a little inspiration?
Tell someone you appreciate them.
Tell someone you care about them.
Tell someone you miss them.
Capture a few favorite memories you shared in 2012.
And, because it’s how we do just about everything, here’s some inspiration in Haiku Deck form:
The Gift of Haiku Deck – Created with Haiku Deck, presentation software that inspires
You see, when you give the gift of Haiku Deck, you’re incredibly likely to make someone special smile, laugh, and remember what really matters. And, like most of the best things in life (snowflakes and hugs, just for starters), it is free.
All the best to you and yours,
Team Haiku Deck
We’ve viewed thousands upon thousands of Haiku Decks these past few months and loved each one, but a particularly striking one by Uprise Art recently caught our eye. We reached out to founder and entrepreneur Tze Chun to hear how Haiku Deck has played a role in her startup’s success.
Haiku Deck: How are you using Haiku Deck in your business?
Tze: Uprise Art is an art collectors club, and we regularly host art events for our members. Haiku Deck is a great way for us to showcase the exciting artwork in our online gallery and create simple and elegant slides. I speak about art entrepreneurship fairly often as well, and have used Haiku Deck for “Art Collection 101” talks and presentations on Uprise Art.
Haiku Deck: What inspired you to start using it?
Tze: My boyfriend sent me your teaser video after seeing me struggle with slow programs on my laptop computer. Now, I use my iPad and create my Haiku Decks on the go. Literally, sometimes on the NYC subway.
Haiku Deck: How has it changed your experience of creating and sharing presentations?
Tze: As an entrepreneur, I’m constantly short on time. Unfortunately, I’m also a perfectionist. Haiku Deck enables me to make dynamic, clear, and properly aligned presentations efficiently. It’s also great to one-touch share the deck and know that I can always access it in the cloud when I arrive at my destination or conference.
Haiku Deck: What kind of response are you getting?
Tze: People think we have an in-house designer!
Haiku Deck: What’s on your Haiku Deck wish list?
Tze: Bullet points — I love the simplicity and appreciate that there are only a few text options; however, in some cases I’d like to have the option to present a short list. (Note: Tze’s wish came true in Haiku Deck 2.0! Read more about lists the Haiku Deck way here.)
Here is the Haiku Deck that Tze used to (successfully) pitch her business for the highly competitive InSITE fall mentorship program:

Uprise Art has been featured in Huffington Post and recently won a Start Small, Go Big award from Daily Candy.
Congratulations Tze, and keep those artistic Haiku Decks coming!
