Published: Sept. 1, 2021, 11 a.m.

Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing. Pitching is an important skill in fundraising. Consider these key points in your next pitch: Tell a compelling story, not just any story. Use the pitch deck to communicate the \u201cWhy\u201d behind your business. Time is short, so make sure you hit the key points of the business -- team, product, fundraise, in a logical order. Include meaningful numbers that demonstrate you know what you are talking about. Market size, revenue, growth rate, customer acquisition rates are important numbers to include.\xa0 In building your pitch, involve your team and others as it will be a great way to reinforce the strategy with those who are helping execute it. Pitching skills also help in recruiting employees, fostering partnerships, and selling customers.\xa0 The deck is there to help you, not take your place.\xa0\xa0 Remember, you are the presentation, not the slides.\xa0 Thank you for joining us for the Startup Funding Espresso where we help startups and investors connect for funding.Let\u2019s go startup something today. ___________________________________ For more episodes from Investor Connect, please visit the site at: \xa0 Check out our other podcasts here: \xa0 For Investors check out: \xa0 For Startups check out: \xa0 For eGuides check out: \xa0 For upcoming Events, check out \xa0 For Feedback please contact info@tencapital.group Music courtesy of
