/10 🚀 "Powering Up Your Tech Startup: Crafting Compelling Pitch Decks"

Navigating the world of #startups?

Your pitch deck can make or break your big break. Let's dive into some effective writing strategies with real-world examples. 🧵

#TechStartups #PitchDeck
Tldr:
1. Remember, your pitch deck is a STORY.
2. Talk about the PROBLEM.
3. Then showcase your SOLUTION.
4. Be upfront about your BUSINESS MODEL.
5. Provide a clear MARKETING & SALES STRATEGY.
6. Prove why your TEAM is the best to solve this problem.
7. Your FINANCIALS matter.
8. And finally, ask for the INVESTMENT.
2/10 Remember, your pitch deck is a STORY.

@GuyKawasaki, the legend who once evangelized for @Apple, swears by the 10/20/30 rule: 10 slides, 20 minutes, 30-point font. Keep it simple, keep it clear.

#GuyKawasaki #Apple #Storytelling

(Reference: guykawasaki.com/the-only-10-sl…)
3/10 Talk about the PROBLEM.

@elonmusk's initial @Tesla pitch deck started with a clear and impactful problem statement: "Most cars are pretty bad, for multiple reasons."

Lay out the issues that your startup is addressing. #ElonMusk #Tesla
4/10 Then showcase your SOLUTION.

@drewhouston of @Dropbox started with a simple video demo.

This approach was so compelling that it secured initial funding from @ycombinator.

Show, don't just tell. #DrewHouston #Dropbox #YCombinator
5/10 Be upfront about your BUSINESS MODEL.

@bchesky of @Airbnb showed investors exactly how they would make money.

The transparency built trust and got them funded. #BrianChesky #Airbnb
6/10 Provide a clear MARKETING & SALES STRATEGY.

@stewart, the co-founder of @SlackHQ, outlined his strategy to reach customers in their initial pitch.

This shows you know your market and how to reach them. #StewartButterfield #Slack
7/10 Prove why your TEAM is the best to solve this problem.

@drewhouston once again did this masterfully in his @Dropbox pitch.

Show your team's relevant skills, experience, and passion. #DrewHouston #Dropbox #Teamwork
8/10 Your FINANCIALS matter.

@ev, @biz, and @jack's original @Twitter pitch deck included projections for growth and revenue.

Be realistic but optimistic. #EvanWilliams #BizStone #JackDorsey #Twitter
9/10 And finally, ask for the INVESTMENT.

@markpinc of @zynga was direct about what he needed from investors. Be specific about your ask and how the funds will accelerate your growth. #MarkPincus #Zynga #Investment
10/10 A pitch deck is a stepping stone in your startup journey. Let it reflect your vision and passion.

Make it compelling. Remember, as @paulg of @ycombinator often says, "Make something people want."

#PaulGraham #YCombinator #StartupJourney
@paulg @ycombinator That's a wrap!
