Slides That Rock at Slides That Rock@SergeyRyzhavin Sergey, thanks for your input, which makes absolute sense. There are different ways of doing this and as you say it also depends on the audience and whether they know you. We apply Dave's structure as the basis and then adjust based on the specific situation. Often we also start with what you call 'Mantra' because it's very powerful when done right.3 months ago
Are you sure you want to
Sergey Ryzhavin at Ingate@slidesthatrock, if we talks about offline presentation, VC already knows who we are, and it is the main reason why i doubted about necessity of Elevator pitch in presentation for VC3 months ago
Are you sure you want to
Sergey Ryzhavin at Ingate@slidesthatrock, thank you for your answer! As for me here instead of short version of team, problem and name of company it is better to place mission of company in 1 sentence. A thing that Guy Kawasaki called company's mantra. It is short description what company is doing for the world and even may say why people should pay for its products or services. Like teaser before PROBLEM and business model description3 months ago
Are you sure you want to
Slides That Rock at Slides That Rock@SergeyRyzhavin Dude, your elevator pitch is your 30-second intro, which will get the attention of the audience. The following slides will allow you to elaborate on the problem and the solution. So your elevator pitch slide should have image/text that will support the pitch. Makes sense?3 months ago

Sergey Ryzhavin at IngateDude, what is the first slide 'elevator pitch' ? (in other words, what informations should be placed on it). i mean, we talk about problem-solution and team few slides later Thx3 months ago
