ABOUT US - PPThemes

Well hello! I’m Jolie

Welcome to PPThemes, a website where you can find inspiration and a trusted resource for free PowerPoint templates designed to help you create professional, modern, and effective presentations with ease.

But more than that, this website was born during a difficult moment. Around the time of the pandemic, like many people, I found myself without a job and suddenly spending most of my time at home, without really knowing what to do next. PPThemes started right in that moment, and this is how it all began.

My name is Jolie Serrano, and I’m the creator of PPThemes. The website didn’t always have this name. In fact, at the beginning it was called “free power point templates download.” Not exactly the most creative name, but at the time I wasn’t thinking about building a brand. I simply wanted a place where I could share resources created in PowerPoint.

What started as something very small slowly began to grow. At first, it was just me and my mom visiting the website. Then, without expecting it, the site started receiving around 1,000 visits per day, and the videos I shared on social media began to get thousands of views. That moment made me realize that this could become something more serious, and that’s when I decided to give the project a proper name. That is how PPThemes was born.

While many people were using their time during the pandemic to explore trends like TikTok, I decided to build something based on what I already knew. At that point, I wasn’t entirely sure what to share, so I started thinking about my professional experience and how I could use it to help others.

why PowerPoint?

I am a publicist, and I have worked mainly in B2B environments, helping commercial teams generate demand and sell complex solutions. A big part of my role involved translating technical ideas into clear, understandable messages, especially during client presentations. After all the marketing strategies and campaigns, everything often came down to a meeting where the solution had to be explained clearly, and that explanation usually depended on a presentation.

That is where I developed a strong connection with PowerPoint. I was responsible for turning complex information into presentations that people could understand easily, while also making them look professional and visually appealing. Over time, this became one of my strongest skills.

My experience with PowerPoint was not limited to presentations. Because marketing is a transversal area, I also worked closely with different teams such as HR, internal communications, and operations. This led me to design internal communications, visual documents, social media-style layouts, and even resumes.

At one point, I was creating many of these designs in Illustrator. However, teams frequently asked for editable versions. While Illustrator is a powerful tool, it is not accessible to everyone. Many teams simply needed something they could open, edit, and use without specialized design knowledge. That is when I started adapting my designs into PowerPoint.

At that time, the process was not as simple as it is today. It required exporting files, converting formats, and rebuilding elements to make them editable. Even though it was time-consuming, it allowed me to create professional designs in a tool that almost everyone already had access to.

That idea became the foundation of PPThemes.
