Startup founders often find themselves wearing multiple hats to keep their business afloat. For early-stage startups, there is often a shortage in resources and budget.
This forces founders and their teams to work twice as hard.
Apart from their responsibilities within their startups, some founders are actually employed.
In a previous study we conducted with 300 founders, we found that 68% of founders are employed on a full-time or contractual basis.
Part of becoming a successful startup is fundraising.
In that same study, we found that 100% of founders are planning to raise funds in the next 12 months.
However, founders need to be great presenters, designers, writers, and storytellers to gain the favor of investors.
But, rarely are founders expert copywriters, designers, or world-class public speakers — becoming one can’t be achieved overnight either.
For pitch decks, it's all about great content and a great story. Everything else usually comes second.
Finishing a pitch deck is HARD!
Out of 300 founders that we surveyed, 55% revealed that they've been struggling with their pitch deck for weeks or even months.
Interestingly, 78% of respondents spent several hours a week finishing their pitch deck.
In addition, 13% were unhappy with their pitch deck that they felt was 'done.'
Wouldn't it be cool if a pitch deck wrote itself?
Yes. Yes it would be. But, alas, that technology hasn’t been developed yet.
Well, there are a few apps out there, but their output quality is more than questionable.
So, a lot of founders use pitch deck templates. The problem?
These templates are mostly design-focused, which still leaves founders in the dark about how to actually write the dang thing!
For this reason, STORY created the ultimate Seed-Round Pitch Content Template.
It's a powerful template that shows founders:
- What slides they need
- In what order those slides should be in
- How to write the content itself using sentence formulas
