SOURC-E webinar: merge guide

The fast way

If your live deck genuinely does have content on the 46 pillar slides that the export lost, do not import my whole file over the top. Do this instead.

1. Import the 34 new slides in one go

I have built SOURC-E-NEW-SLIDES-ONLY.pptx, which is just the 34 additions in deck order and nothing else. In Google Slides: File, Import slides, upload it, select all, and keep original formatting. They will land at the end, and you drag them into place using the table below.

2. Apply the 45 fixes by hand

The footers are one find and replace if your tool supports it. The seven text fixes are individual.

Speaker notes come with them

All 34 new slides now carry presenter notes in the deck’s existing house style, which is a build note, a rule, then SAY / DO / CHAT ASK / OPS / WHY THIS SLIDE EXISTS. They survive File, Import slides intact, so you do not need to do anything to keep them. Six slides carry an instruction in capitals at the top: those are the ones with placeholder numbers or a claim to verify before presenting.

3. Add the booking route to the footer, slide 103 to the end

The largest single change and the one least likely to survive an import, because it is 68 individual text boxes rather than slides. studiohawk.com.au · book a call, Archivo 7pt bold, Bright Aqua #01FFFF, right-aligned on the existing footer baseline. In Google Slides the fast way is to add it to the layout rather than the slides. This is not cosmetic: slide 103 says out loud that the link is in the footer from that point on.

Do not skip the footer pass

It is the least interesting item on this page and the one that most affects the room. For 38 slides, roughly a third of day two, the section marker currently tells the audience they are still in Structure while you teach Offsite, Uniqueness, Relevance and Credibility.

Where the 34 slides go

Insert after the numbered slide in your original deck. Where several land in one place, they go in the order listed.

The 38 footer corrections

Every one of these currently reads DAY TWO · S, STRUCTURE. Each pillar section was copied from the Structure section and kept its footer.

Change it to	Slides	Which ones, in your deck
DAY TWO · O, OFFSITE	8	76, 77, 78, 79, 80, 81, 82, 83
DAY TWO · U, UNIQUENESS	10	85, 89, 90, 91, 92, 93, 94, 95, 96, 97

The 7 text fixes

Individual edits. The first one matters most: it is a note to the presenter sitting in live body copy.

Slide	Issue	Change
34	The bracketed "[ VERIFY current public position ... ]" note, visible in live body copy	~~llms.txt is the fix~~No major assistant has committed to reading it. It costs an afternoon, so add it if you like. Just do not pay anyone for it, and do not let it displace work that does move the needle.
85	Typo in the slide title	~~Proprietary Toosl~~Proprietary Tools, Calculators or Apps
115	Typo in the slide title	~~No Clear Aobut/Team Presence~~No Clear About / Team Presence
16	Stray backslash rendering in body copy	~~\A meaningful part~~A meaningful part of what gets cited around your category lives on surfaces you do not have direct access to.
37	Garbled sentence that contradicts itself mid-way	~~handed over first~~The SOURC-E toolkit, handed over before the offer, not after it.
43	Day 2 slide carrying a Day 1 footer	~~DAY ONE · RANKING IS NOT CITATION~~DAY TWO · RANKING IS NOT CITATION
127	Footer says FIVE and SIX on the same slide, and is labelled Day 1	~~DAY ONE · FIVE QUESTIONS, SIX ROWS~~DAY TWO · THE SIX QUESTIONS

After you merge

Set the four placeholder numbers. The price range, the retail figure for the audit, the capacity cap and the closing date. Search the deck for square brackets.
Verify the headcount before presenting. The personal-cost slide says over a hundred people on payroll. It is the one claim in the close a sceptic can check in ten seconds.
Confirm the guarantee name. Earn It Every Month is a working title. Whatever it becomes must be word for word identical on the slide, on the call and in the proposal.
Reconcile the price. Slide 154 now says out loud that engagements start at $2,500 US. Your sales-ops pricing work sets a $3,000 recurring minimum with no currency against it. If that one is USD, this slide is wrong. Settle it before the deck is presented.
Check the four-part close reads right for a US room. Slides "I could go on" and "If we closed this call right now" are the most tonally aggressive additions. They are meant to be.
Put Sophie's photo on the booking slide. Her name is on two slides now. A face would do more.
Then re-export. Once your live deck is the source of truth again, send me a fresh .pptx and I can work against that rather than a stale snapshot.
