I work with founders raising pre-seed through Series A on the deck and the growth story behind it. We rewrite in your file, slide by slide, until the bet underneath each one is one a partner can defend in their Monday meeting.
Already raising
Calls are booked. The deck is out. The follow-ups are slower than they should be.
When a deck gets meetings but no commitments, design is rarely the problem.
Partners are polite. Associates stop replying. The deck opens doors but nothing closes behind it.
Most decks describe what the company does. They don't show why this round, why now, and what you see that other people don't.
We rewrite the first few slides so a partner can repeat your story from memory. Then we make sure the numbers, GTM and ask hold up behind it.
Investors are buying the bet behind the company, not the company on the slide. My job is to put the bet on the page in plain language.
One Series A founder I worked with had the right business and the wrong slide. The kind of edit a deck audit usually surfaces in the first two days.
The change isn't design. It's deciding which numbers carry your story and putting the rest in the appendix.
Two founder slots a month means I'm careful about who I take on. Here is how I think about it before the intro call.
Not sure which side you're on? Send a one-line note and I'll tell you straight.
"Jack didn't redesign our deck. He rewrote what it was supposed to do. We closed in nine weeks."
"The first meeting after the rewrite went better than the previous twelve combined. That's not an exaggeration."
"Honest, fast, zero theater. He told us what was broken on day one and stayed until it wasn't."
Send your current deck and a sentence on what isn't working. If we're a fit we'll be on a call within the week, and I'll tell you which slides I'd touch first.
