Using Presentations as Templates in Ingage

Make a presentation's pages and sections available as reusable templates for your team by adding it to your Company Templates

As your team builds out more presentations in Ingage, you'll likely create pages and sections that you want to reuse across multiple presentations — things like a standard intro page, a product overview section, or a branded closing page. Instead of rebuilding these from scratch each time, you can add a presentation to your Company Templates. Once it's there, anyone on your team can pull individual pages or entire sections from it into their own presentations.

What Are Company Templates?

Company Templates is a special team within your Ingage account that acts as a shared library of reusable content. When a presentation is placed in the Company Templates team, its pages and sections become available in the page picker — the same place where you add new pages from Page Layouts or installed Template Packs. This makes it easy for your team members to pull in pre-built content when creating or editing their own presentations.

How to Add a Presentation to Company Templates

  1. Open the Ingage app and navigate to the team where the presentation you want to use as a template currently lives

  2. Locate the presentation in the Library

  3. Click and drag the presentation from its current team down into the Company Templates team in the left sidebar

  4. The presentation is now available as a template for your entire company

Important: The presentation in Company Templates is the same presentation, not a copy. Any changes made to this presentation will also be reflected in the Company Templates version. If you want to keep a clean, unchanging template, consider duplicating the presentation first and placing the duplicate in Company Templates.

How Your Team Uses Templates

Once a presentation is in Company Templates, any team member who creates or edits a presentation can access its pages:

  1. While editing a presentation, navigate to the Storyboard

  2. Click the green + (plus) button in any section to open the page picker

  3. In the left sidebar of the page picker, look for the template presentation under your Company Templates

  4. Browse the available pages and sections from the template

  5. Select the page(s) you'd like to add and click Add Page(s)

The selected pages will be added to the presentation, ready to be customized. This is a great way to maintain consistency across your team's presentations while still allowing individual customization.

When to Use Company Templates

  • Standardized intro and closing pages — Create a branded introduction or closing page once and make it available for every new presentation your team builds

  • Product or service sections — Build out a detailed product section that sales reps can pull into their own presentations as needed

  • Reusable design layouts — Design polished page layouts with your company's branding, then let your team reuse them without starting from a blank page

  • Onboarding new team members — Give new employees a library of pre-built pages they can quickly assemble into a presentation

  • Company-wide updates — When a page in the template presentation is updated (like a new company overview page), the updated version becomes available to everyone pulling from that template

Things to Know

  • Company Templates is a team in your Ingage account — the presentation must be placed in this team to appear as a template

  • The template presentation is not a copy — edits to the presentation in Company Templates will be reflected when team members browse it in the page picker. If you need an unchanging version, duplicate the presentation first.

  • Team members can pull individual pages or entire sections from templates into their own presentations

  • Adding a presentation to Company Templates requires Admin or Creator permissions
