Q: What are the three most important elements of a pitch deck?

In my view, the three most crucial components of a pitch deck are:

-A super-clear story. Investors don’t put money behind what they can’t understand. Would you buy something if you had no idea what it was?

-A compelling value proposition. If it’s not enough to get your customers motivated, why would an investor be motivated?

-The ask. So many rookie entrepreneurs are too bashful to “just tell them what you want, and what they get in exchange”. It’s not enough to just tell them what you’re up to- you’ve gotta go for it & put it on the line. Because would you buy from someone who just couldn't get up the courage to ask for exactly what they need? (which, by the way, is going to make you MONEY!)
