Couldn't they simply take some pictures of the items/services they provide? Then PowerPoint all that shit together in a pleasing format? You dont need to hire Picasso for fucks sake.
Powerpoint isn't free. And using it is not simple. Small busniess owners often work substantially more than 40 hours a week. Looking down on them because they didn't want to spend another 5 or more hours learning powerpoint seems pretty entitled.
I honestly had no idea apparently some people pay for PowerPoint. π€£
I'm sure there is an open source equivalent.
Right, but asking a local business owner, like a mom and popwho run a restaurant to even know what powerpoint is... is pushing it. Expecting them to know there is a free alternative is very unlikely.
You're coming up with bullshit excuses for peoples failings now.
Have you ever met someone who doesn't work on a computer all day?
Here is a link to the us census data showing that 1 in 7, or over 18 million people don't have a laptop or pc in their house. Not everyone lives and breathes by computers.

How many of those people are business owners who can't design a fucking menu?
At 18 million, I would think a fair amount. But that's just the ones who don't own a computer. Plenty of people who do don't use powerpoint. But hey, if you can't imagine that people don't know what you know, you are pretty much the perfect representation of Americans.
Maybe they should ask ChatGPT what powerpoint is.
Hey, that actually was funny.
