Rule of thumb for pitch decks

In a nutshell keep it simple!

1. Context or trend
2. Problem/opportunity – 3 slides : What is the problem, Why hasn’t it been solved, How you plan to crack it
3. Product/Service 3 slides : What is the value proposition – short and simple, How (demo of product), Why : testimonial, why users/clients love the product)
4. Target/Market: What is the initial and future target, How you compete, and Why you will succeed
5. Execution/data: Go to market/distribution , business model, key performance indicators
6. People
