Celebrating 3 years of Slides by Sander

Hey Reader,

Welcome if you’re new here, and welcome back if you’ve been around for a while.

This week, I celebrated the 3 year anniversary of my Youtube channel. What started as SlideSkills, over the years grew into Slides by Sander. Some of you have been around since the very beginning and others might have only found me this week. Anyhow, I want to thank you for being here and for believing in me.

In December 2025, I was awarded Microsoft PowerPoint MVP. A milestone I never planned for, but one that confirms the direction I want to keep pursuing.

Slides by Sander is no longer just a YouTube channel. It's education. Templates. Coaching. A long-term mission around better presentations.

I truly believe impactful presentations can make a difference in this world.

The next chapter is about helping people stay in control: of their slides, their message, their time, their delivery. Especially as AI tools and Copilot become standard, I want people to remain in the driver's seat.

To find out more, I have dedicated this week's blog post to my story.

For now, let’s get into this week's newsletter.
