Does anyone create powerpoint presentations as a business? How did you start?

I am interested in creating powerpoint presentations and selling them to people who don't have the knowledge or time to use power point. How could I get this idea started? What is the best way to market? What suggestions do you have to sell to; businesses, type of people ex.teachers etc. I work full time and want to start a business on the side and build up to the point I can do this and other ideas I have full time.

Answer:
Well, self-publishing is a way to go. Check out www.creativecommons.com. They have an open-source copyright scheme to get your work out there. There are numerous freelance sites and writing sites. Graphic design with powerpoint is a step from writing the content. You can advertise your interest and expertise (read: have a portfolio) in powerpoint presentations through ads in typical channels. (such as craig's list, classified ads in newspapers, free publications, and your own website)

The business world is on the lookout for freelancers depending on the business. Try to narrow your focus some and go after projects you really want to do. I have tons more advice and suggestions so drop me a line.
No but I believe it's a hot application..so good luck. Try to seek out lawyers..they always love these types of presentations for court. And it's a lot less expensive to pay an independent contractor than it is to pay a high-end graphics firm!
you're not going to find any market for that. ANYBODY can use PowerPoint.
