🔍 The Hard Truth About Investor Pitch Decks: What Really Happens Behind the Scenes
Most founders don't know this, but you have just SECONDS to capture an investor's attention. Here's the brutal reality I've learned about pitch deck reviews:
Cover slide: 1 second
First 3 slides: 3 seconds
Full deck: 30 seconds (if you're lucky)
Detailed review: 3 minutes (if you're exceptional)
🎯 Key lessons that can make or break your pitch:
Your cover is your hook. Forget "Disrupting the $1T banking industry" and try "Helping small businesses get paid 5x faster"
Problem statements must be razor-sharp. Compare:
❌ "Banking is broken"
✅ "40M small businesses wait 47 days for payment, losing $4.5T annually"
Market size? Make it believable:
❌ "TAM: $1T global market"
✅ "40M users × $100/month = $48B serviceable market"
💡 The golden rules I've seen work:
Simple beats complex
Clarity beats creativity
Evidence beats promises
Numbers beat adjectives
Remember: You're not pitching for an immediate "yes" - you're pitching for the "maybe pile." That's your first win.
