Our Clients
From Startup Founders
to B2B Boardrooms
When a presentation can't miss, founders and executives bring us in, whether it's a funding round, a major deal, a keynote stage, or a training program for senior leaders. A few of our clients:
Sound familiar?
Your Presentation Isn't Telling Your Story Clearly
You've got a raise, a major deal, a keynote, a leadership rollout, or a new course coming up, and you've already reworked the slides more than once.
But the story still doesn't land on its own.
But the story still doesn't land on its own.
The story falls apart when someone else presents it
Your key message gets lost in the details
Important ideas get buried in busy, inconsistent slides
You rebuild the deck before every big meeting or new cohort
You end up explaining what the slides should make clear
When the story isn't clear, you end up carrying the weight yourself.
Why Olumen
Why Not Just Hire a Designer? Pretty Slides Are the Easy Part.
Designing slides to look good is one skill. Designing them so your idea lands is another. We do both. We work out what your audience needs to hear, write the story with you, and design it, so the strategy, the words, and the look all pull in the same direction.
You don't need the story figured out before we start, and if your content already works, we keep what's working. Not ready for a full overhaul? We can start with one deck. Most projects take 3–4 weeks, and we plan around your deadline, even a tight one before an event or pitch.

Solution
Strategy, Story, and Design, Built Together
In a high-stakes moment, your presentation isn't decoration. It's a decision tool.
Before founding Olumen, Kristina Sym spent a decade at a Harvard teaching hospital helping C-level executives, physicians, and scientists turn complex research and groundbreaking treatments into stories donors could understand, and fund. For you, that means someone who can take what's in your head, including the technical parts, and turn it into a story the room can follow and act on. Olumen brings that same approach to your presentation, with strategy, writing, and design under one roof.
Better-looking slides are part of it.
The point is the result you need, whether that's a closed round, a signed deal, a keynote people quote afterward, or leaders who put the training to work.

What changes
When the Presentation Works, the Conversation Changes
A strategic presentation helps you:
Close deals in half the meetings
Raise with a clear, credible narrative
Give keynotes audiences remember
Deliver courses and leadership training participants actually apply
Stop carrying the meeting yourself. The slides back you up, so you can focus on the conversation.
