I'm starting to raise for a bitcoin startup, and our pitch deck is embarrassing. I tried to do it myself, but I am not a designer. I'm looking for a startup pitch deck designer - any advice on where I can get our deck spruced up while keeping the costs under $500?
First, forget the software, the apps, the consultants. It’s silly, to be candid. It’s the message, it’s simplicity, it’s validation and powerful differentiation expressed as simply as possible. My record is $7mm in 90 seconds on one slide. One. Ignore the hype. Please.
The best bang for your buck is to buy the series of books by Jerry Weissman on Amazon, starting with Oresentibg to Win and view all of his videos on YouTube.

Realize, no pitch deck will help if you do t know your own pitch, business, differentiation, have prospects, customers, etc... the folks you pitch too likely have seen thousands and if you think spinning logos, fancy graphics will help you’re done before you started.
Five slides - that’s it. Starting with the one line wow, pitch that pulls it all together - the business case, the idea, the completion, the validation.
Can we help with that? Yes. We’ve raised $100mm and much much more than that the other way - through leveraged, validating resource laden relationships with simple, elegant pitches starting with those one liners.
