1. 1 I N T R O D U C T I O N / C O V E R S L I D E
You have seven seconds to make a first impression, make it
strong and memorable. Introduce yourself and your tech
simply and in one or two sentences.
2 P A I N
What is the problem you are solving? Identify a need. Look
for the head nod. If you haven’t got it, explain again.
3 S O L U T I O N
What is your solution? The best ideas are usually the
simplest so keep it simple. Concept first, how you are going
to achieve your goal second.
Be thorough but concise.
What stage are you at? VC’s like growth, so if you can time
your pitch so you can demonstrate progress.
If you have a demo great, but keep it short and to the point.

Who is your customer and what is your market segment?
5 B U S I N E S S M O D E L
This is a seminal part of the pitch as investors are not your
customer. You may be bursting with pride with your
product but they are primarily interested in how your idea
is going to translate into money.
Outline your company's road map, revenue model and go-
to-market strategy. What are your plausible projections?
Are you preparing to pitch? If so here are some
valuable tips on how to get it right.

Don’t be scared to acknowledge competition. What are
they doing and how are you going to do it better? What is
your differential?

Who are you? The core team is consistently identified
by VCs as one of the most important factors in whether
they elect to invest in a specific start-up.
T H E A S K
It's time to talk about money. How much money are you
looking for, how do you plan on spending it and how long will
it last?
