## The constraint

Early in my career I wanted to help the owner of a quiz product, and invited him to a restaurant to pitch. Opening a computer at the table looked wrong to me.

## The idea

I redesigned the deck so it was a deck. Each slide printed on card, at playing card size, in a box made for the occasion. The metaphor was simple enough to say out loud: I have the card of your success in my hand.

## Why it worked

A slide is watched. A card is handled, sorted, set aside, handed over. The person across the table stopped being an audience.
