How to Create a Thank You Slide in PowerPoint

You do not need to build a thank you slide from scratch. Start with one of our templates above, or follow these steps to create one yourself in PowerPoint or Google Slides:

Step 1 — Start with the right layout. Open PowerPoint and insert a blank slide at the end of your deck, after your conclusion and before any appendix. Choose a layout with a centred title and a subtitle area, or start from a completely blank canvas.

Step 2 — Add your thank you message and contact details. Type “Thank You” or “Thank You for Your Time” as the main heading. Below it, add your name, job title, email address, phone number, and LinkedIn handle. Use vector icons next to each contact line instead of plain-text URLs — they look cleaner and are easier to read from the back row. Keep all text at 24-point font or above.

Step 3 — Insert a call to action or QR code. Decide what you want the audience to do next: visit a landing page, book a follow-up meeting, or scan a QR code. Place the CTA or QR code in the lower-right quadrant of the slide where the eye naturally lands last.

Step 4 — Apply your brand. Add your company logo, set your brand colours as the background, and match the fonts to the rest of your deck. If you are using one of our templates, every element — colours, fonts, icons, images — is already editable, so this step takes under a minute.

Step 5 — Test readability. Present in slideshow mode and step to the back of the room (or zoom out to 50% on screen). If you cannot read your email address, the font is too small. Increase size or remove any unnecessary elements until the slide passes the “back row test.”

What Is a Thank You Slide?

A thank you slide (also written as thankyou slide) is a closing page placed near the end of your PowerPoint presentation or Google Slides deck to express appreciation and signal that the main content has ended. It typically stays on screen during Q&A — making it the longest-viewed slide in your deck. Most presenters use it as the last slide or last page before the appendix, and it doubles as a practical space for contact details, a thank you note to the audience, and a call to action.

What Should a Thank You Slide Include?

The most effective thank you slides for presentation endings go beyond just the words “thank you.” Include:

• A call to action — tell your audience what to do next: visit a website, book a meeting, scan a QR code.
• Contact information — name, job title, email, phone, and LinkedIn. Nothing smaller than 24-point font — if the back row cannot read your email, the font is too small.
• Social media handles — displayed as vector icons, not text URLs.
• Thank you images or background — a professional background design or image that matches your presentation theme.
• A key takeaway or summary — one sentence or a relevant quote that reinforces your core message.
• A Q&A prompt (optional) — a visible “Any Questions?” header if you are inviting discussion.
