You're a young company. You have an idea. You have a dream. Your pitch deck can make or break you As someone who has successfully raised capital from a multi-billion dollar corporation, you can trust me when I tell you this: your pitch deck is not something you want to mess around with. A huge percent of the time you invest in putting your business together should be spent on your pitch.
My experience with pitching came as part of a startup accelerator. In the program, seven teams went through an intensive business bootcamp where we fine-tuned our businesses and talked to investors. At the end of the program, you pitched your business and hoped someone would make you an offer to invest in your company.
There were great companies in the program. In my opinion, all were worthy of an investment. But you know how many got it? Just my team.
There's a number of things that went into this, and everything wasn't completely centered around the pitch. But the pitch played a big part of it.
So how do you create a pitch-perfect pitch? Let's get started
Surfing the Internet requires an Internet Browser. While some people use the browser that comes with their computer (typically Internet Explorer and Safari) others download a separate browser. Google Chrome is arguably the most popular, but Firefox is definitely a worthy contender in the browser wars.
Developed by the non-profit organization "Mozilla Foundation" Firefox is open-source, fast, and offers top security.
If you are tired of the browser that came with your computer and want to try something different, then this book will help you in your journey It covers:
Chances are you grew up a Word and Office user. Maybe you were a rebel and committed your herd to OpenOffice, or, dare I say, WordPerfect--but for the majority of people, our lives were loyal to Microsoft.
In 2005, a small little startup named Upstartle developed something unheard of at the time: a web-based word processor called Writely. It pioneered the idea of writing on the "cloud" and changed the way people thought about word processing.
Google noticed the little upstart, and in 2006, they acquired the company. The software was abandoned and turned into what everyone knows today as Google Docs. It disrupted the industry--namely, Microsoft's industry.
Today, Google has a whole suite of productivity apps; from documents to spreadsheets, you can do just about anything from the cloud. Microsoft and Apple have each made big attempts to create cloud-based environments of their own for office productivity, but Google pioneered the idea and its collaborative, online environment make it hard to beat. It's become so feature-rich that many businesses are finding it to be the preferred way to conduct business.
If you are thinking about making the switch to Google, or have already made the switch but want to make sure you are using it correctly, then this guide will walk you through it. It will show you all the basic features to make sure you can get up and running as quickly as possible. It covers Google Drive, Google Docs, Google Slides, Google Sheets, and Google Forms.
For 40-some-odd years, the world of spreadsheets has been ruled by one king: Microsoft Excel. Sure, there were far away challengers that tried to overtake the beast--I'm looking at you, Lotus 1-2-3--but none have come close to dethroning the powerful tool...until Google Sheets.
So what is Google Sheets? It's a cloud-based spreadsheet. Think Excel, but online. "But Excel is online," you say. Yes But Google was there first, and really has the advantage over Excel in this arena. It's quicker and easier to use for collaboration.
Google Sheets is also free; Excel has monthly/yearly subscriptions.
