Anytime to create a great investment pitch deck. You want to come up with something authentic to what you’re building, but also informed by past successes. Heck, you probably want to avoid common mistakes and get a feel for what other startup founders are using to raise capital, right?
Good news: TechCrunch+ has all that, and more, ready to go. Sign up here for access to all this great content and more, and check out our super discounted holiday prices.
Through us weekly Pitch Deck Teardown series, we’ve analyzed dozens of pitch decks that startups have used to successfully raise capital. Written by our in-house expert Haje Jan Kamps, a coach, former founder and venture investor, this series presents a perspective from both sides of the table on what makes a great pitch deck and the mistakes to avoid.
Here are some of our favorite pitch deck examples from the past few weeks:
SplitBrick’s Angel Court
For early readers, we have SplitBrick’s $200,000 angel deck. Given how many startups have tried to democratize real estate investing, SplitBrick faces a pretty crowded market. Perhaps because of this, Haje was not completely convinced by his deck.
The monster of the Aether Series A deck
Here is an example of how meeting the guidelines is not a requirement to raise funds. However, the deck has a lot to learn from. Including what a polyfluoroalkyl substance is! For more on the Series A Raise, head here.
Round extension track by Phospholutions
Bit of a theme this year, yes? For the founders out there looking to raise money in their latest private round, the Phospholutions deck is for you:
CancerVAX crowdfunding pitch deck
Who doesn’t want less cancer? The crowdfunding event raised $855,138, so there’s a lot to learn here.
We have decks from angel rounds to late stages, all here.
If still needed more on how to build an exciting pitch deck in late 2023, we have notes here why the number of slides in decks is decreasing and how to fully increase the sans deck!
