Good Design Techniques for the Pitch Deck
Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing.
The pitch deck is the primary tool in fundraising.
It’s important to develop a pitch deck that’s clear and engaging.
Here are some key techniques to improve the design of your pitch deck:
Use graphs and charts to show numbers and data.
Increase the impact of the data through charts with bold lines and colors that stand out.
Use colors and contrast to highlight key points.
The colors should be consistent with the color theme of the deck, which should complement the startup's logo.
Choose a font that’s clear and legible.
Avoid big blocks of text and break paragraphs down into bullet points.
Align the style of the pitch deck with the startup and its mission.
Use glyphs and other design elements to communicate the message.
Add background images to create additional effects.
Show how the product works using a 3 to 4-step sequence.
Create a flow in the deck to tell the startup story in a seamless fashion.
Consider these steps in adding good design to your pitch deck.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
