Most appliances come with a “quick start guide” in addition to a detailed manual. A good quick start guide:

  • Is not a dumbed down version of the manual

  • Has an order that is natural to the new user, tackling issues as they come up

  • Has a clear objective to get people going

The manual is the exhaustive reference guide written by the product engineer, the quick start guide is the pitch to the user. Think of your presentation as the quick start guide of that huge strategy document that is open in your presentation software.
