The majority of startup
pitches
lose investor
interest before a
single slide is
shown. The
difference often
lies in structure,
clarity, and data.
A compelling
opening, a clear
problem, and a
precise ask can
dramatically shift
the outcome.
Backed by proven
frameworks, this
approach helps
founders capture
attention and
build immediate
credibility.
