I have been asked to create a slide that graphically shows the discount we are giving to the client. For example. Original price $100, Discounted price: $75. Any cool graphics or other suggestions on how to portray this? TIA.

Pie chart with Word Art headers typically do the trick for us

likefunny

If you’re breaking down the cost, (design, implementation, t&e, etc. two side by side pie charts could work. One being proportionally smaller than the other. If just numbers, then proportional comparison with icons or font is my thought.

But, if you can go a level or 2 deeper to show where the discount is coming from, I think that helps.

Also, I’d probably avoid using “discount”. It’s an investment in our relationship with the client.

Your client doesn’t actually care how cool the slide is.

A clear takeaway of std rate vs discount and how much they are saving is all you need. Are you billing for this slide?

Pie chart, or two stacked bars (one at 100%, one at 75%) is good for this. Since the "height" of the bar is relative to however big you want to make it, you can artificially make the 75% bar closer to 70 or so. Then point to that gap as a discount

I remember when I first started working on my thesis project. My adviser asked me to get some funding for it, but he didn't give me any advice about how to do that. He just told me that if I wanted money for my project, I'd have to go through some kind of committee process and submit an application for funding from them. Sure enough, after weeks of writing applications and waiting around for responses from the committee members (who were always too busy), I eventually got approved for funding!
