Done correctly, a pitch deck is an effective way to answer common investor questions like:
- What is your product?
- What problem do you solve, and for whom?
- Who are your competitors, and what sets your product apart?
- How big is your market, and how fast is it growing?
- How do you generate revenue, and how easily can you get to $100M in annual revenue?
- How do you acquire and retain customers efficiently and at scale?
- Why is your team the right team to build this product and business?
- What is the roadmap for your product, company and the success metrics for each stage?
- What is the strategy to manage key risks on the roadmap?
- How much capital do you need to get from where you are now to escape velocity?
