Startup Funding Espresso – Sharing Your Pitchdeck

Sharing Your Pitchdeck Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing. The pitch deck is the initial document investors want to see. It's important to have your pitch deck ready to go when engaging investors. In sharing your pitch deck, consider the following: You don't have to send the deck ahead of time, although it can expedite the process of identifying interested investors. It's important to provide the deck if asked. Holding back the deck will appear strange. Don't ask for NDAs for your pitch deck, as it should not have confidential information. Create multiple versions of the deck for different use cases. One deck could be for sending in advance of a meeting. This one should be simple and easy to understand without your providing commentary. Another deck could be an angel version, which emphasizes the go-to-market strategy and initial traction. Another version of the deck could be for the venture capitalist, showing how this will be a homerun. Consider putting your deck online and providing a link to it. This gives you the opportunity to update the deck without having to resend it. Consider these steps in sharing your pitch deck. Thank you for joining us for the Startup Funding Espresso where we help startups and investors connect for funding. Let's go startup something today. _______________________________________________________ For more episodes from Investor Connect, please visit the site at: http://investorconnect.org Check out our other podcasts here: https://investorconnect.org/ For Investors check out: https://tencapital.group/investor-landing/ For Startups check out: https://tencapital.group/company-landing/ For eGuides check out: https://tencapital.group/education/ For upcoming Events, check out https://tencapital.group/events/ For Feedback please contact [email protected] Please follow, share, and leave a review.
