Pitch Deck Patterns

Slide Structures

Seed Stage (10-12 slides)

  1. Title + one-line hook
  2. Problem (make them feel it)
  3. Solution (clear, visual)
  4. Demo/product (show, don't tell)
  5. Market size (bottom-up TAM)
  6. Business model (how you make money)
  7. Traction (metrics, growth rate)
  8. Competition (honest positioning)
  9. Team (why you, specifically)
  10. Ask (amount, use of funds, milestones)

Series A+ (12-15 slides)

Add: unit economics, go-to-market strategy, expansion plan, financial projections

Strategic/Partnership

Different structure entirely: shared problem, mutual value, specific proposal, timeline, next steps.

Slide Design Rules

One Idea Per Slide

If a slide needs "and also..." it's two slides. Complexity belongs in the appendix.

Headlines Are Insights, Not Labels

  • Bad: "Revenue Growth"
  • Good: "Revenue tripled after launching self-serve in March"
  • The headline should carry the point even if nobody reads the body.

Data Storytelling

  • Every chart needs an insight headline
  • Annotate the specific data point that matters
  • Remove gridlines, reduce axis labels, kill chart junk
  • Use color to highlight the story, gray out the rest
  • Left-align numbers in tables, right-align currency

Visual Consistency

  • One font family throughout
  • One accent color for emphasis
  • Consistent chart styles (don't mix bar and pie randomly)
  • Same layout grid across all slides
  • Logo placement doesn't move

Text Reduction

Read your slide. Cut 50%. Read again. Cut 30% more. What remains should be speakable in 30 seconds.

Anti-Patterns

  • Wall of text slides (this is a document, not a deck)
  • Clip art or generic stock photos
  • Busy backgrounds that compete with content
  • Inconsistent formatting slide to slide
  • Appendix items in the main deck
  • More than 3 bullet points per slide
  • Animations/transitions that add time without meaning
