The Ultimate Pitch Deck to Raise Money for Startups

Great startups don’t fund themselves. Raising money from investors for your startup is challenging at any stage and requires a great pitch, even for experienced founders with significant traction in their company.

The good news is that there’s a formula for pitching your startup that has helped startup founders raise millions.

In this article below I’ve distilled the investor pitch formula down to the 11 core slides you need in your initial pitch deck. I’ve also provided specific examples including the actual deck that Reid Hoffman used to get funding for LinkedIn from Greylock.

Most importantly, I put all this into a single pitch deck template you can download (Power Point), and shared tips for using your new pitch deck to raise funding for your startup. The template doesn’t have fancy design, just the content outline you need.

Download the template, and read through the tips and examples below to create a compelling investor pitch that you can both share with investors directly and put online to run a successful equity crowdfunding campaign.
