To get next          Answer basic
meeting              questions up front
Competent

For an awesome
pitch, do
something
different.
•   Problem you’re
    solving
•   Market you’re
    addressing
•   Your solution
•   Business model
•   Current status
•   The Ask
Start with audience in mind
Is the audience familiar with your market
and problem?

Yes:                   No:
Appeal to their        Describe problem
“personal” pain        Prove market size
Platform:


Use unambiguous
words.
Start with the
“Hollywood
cinema pitch”:

Kill Bill meets
Wizard of Oz
Prove that your solution works

Your team are the heart of your business!




  Leo        Boye        Jacob       Yash
Business models aren’t magical

Who’s buying?        Are they paying
What are they        enough to make it
buying?              worthwhile?
What’s the status?

•   Prototype
•   Just launched
•   Getting traction
•   Need to grow
    faster!
What do you want from your audience?

Money:               Contacts
How much?            Advice
For what?            Test users
Now, to make a
presentation that
packs a PUNCH…
Tell a story
Illustrate your point with a bit of flair
•   5 minutes sharp
•   PPT/Keynote, but
    have a PDF copy
•   Screenshots only
•   Live demo OK, but
    only if it REALLY
    works
•   18:00 is last
    deadline
