FAQ

To pitch for funding, present a clear business idea, demonstrate market potential, outline financial projections, and explain how the investor will benefit. Tailor the pitch to the audience and include a compelling story that highlights your business’s potential for growth.

A pitch deck is a visual presentation used to provide a brief overview of your business to potential investors.

While what you include in your pitch deck fully depends on your business and the structure of your pitch—a pitch deck should generally include the problem, solution, market opportunity, business model, financials, and a call to action.
