Bursts of Color - Pitch Deck Template

A few weeks back I posted about some Red Flags to avoid in a VC Pitch Deck. This caused a few of you to gently respond with some version of:

Thanks for suggesting what not to do. But what *should* the pitch deck include?

Great point. To that end, I have now created this very simple Pitch Deck Template for those who don’t already have one.

What’s Included

The template includes these 15 slides. Of course every business is different, so if the story can be told in 10-12 great slides, that may be even better.

1. Team

2. Purpose

3. Problem

4. Solution / Product

5. Business Model

6. Revenue / Metric #1

7. Customers / Metric #2

8. Distribution

9. Retention / Engagement

10. Market Size

11. Competition

12. Fundraising History

13. Financials

14. What's Next 

15. Fundraising Ask
