If you’re planning to raise money for your business, it is essential to have an impressive pitch deck as a key component in your fundraising toolkit.
A great pitch deck excites the potential investors about your idea and stimulates and engages them in a conversation about your business, and hopefully leading to an investment.
The following slides will give you an idea about the content flow in your presentation to create the pursuasive and engaging deck that you need to impress your investors.
1. Company Name
NOTE: Any detail which is missing out from your company while answering the questions in the pitch deck, please make sure to mention why is it missing. In case it’s not applicable for your business then just mention ‘NA’. It would be great if you can have more graphical representations and least amount of content from web. We appreciate your creativity and imagination which will also become a criteria of judgement.
