Great deck for startups on how to present at investor events

This is a great deck on how to present in a very time condensed format and win. The idea is not to focus on your technology or how great it is (we know its great!) but to focus on who will pay for it, why they will pay for it, and why they won't spend money with another company to solve this problem.

I've seen so many startups over the years try to cram everything into a short 5-10 minute presenation at every event imaginable. You don't need to say everything at this first shout out to investors. This is a sales pitch for you - just get them interested enough to ask for a meeting. That's really all you can ask for!
