How To Make The Perfect Startup Pitch Deck Original Foursquare Investor Pitch Deck 2009 Foursquare is one of the biggest, buzziest startups in New York. Scratch that -- anywhere. The local check-in startup raised $50 million this past summer from Andreessen Horowitz and Spark Capital. It recently reached 15 million downloads and it has been rolling out tons of new features including Lists and Radar. Foursquare has come a long way in two years. What started as a self-proclaimed "part friend-finder, part social city-guide, part social-game" has become a $600 million company. We asked cofounder Dennis Crowley for a copy of his original pitch deck so other entrepreneurs could see what Foursquare looked like in its early days. "Decks don't have to be super formal," says Crowley.

Raising funding as a first-time founder I’ve been fortunate enough to meet with some outstanding first-time entrepreneurs on a few different days during this week. In almost every case I can really feel the passion and determination they have, and I know that if they will just continue there is every chance that eventually they will be very successful. One interesting topic which came up on a couple of different occasions was timing of raising funding as a first time founder. I’ve had entrepreneurs often talk to me with just an idea or a very early prototype with no traction and tell me that they want to raise funding. Times during a startup at which you can raise funding What I’ve learned from talking with some very experienced and highly respected successful serial entrepreneurs is that there are only really two good times to raise funding. Unfortunately for us first time founders, we don’t have the track record which we very much need in order to close funding without traction. A note on incubators How we did it with Buffer

Startup Pitch Decks: Free Templates from VCs Today, NextView Ventures is excited to release a pillar project in our Growth Guides series: pitch deck templates for raising seed capital. These help address a common question which we frequently receive from entrepreneurs about how to create startup pitch decks for this crucial financial milestone. For context, last year, based on questions from our existing portfolio, we launched two board deck templates for seed-stage startups. These were well-received, so we next turned our attention to entrepreneurs outside the portfolio to ask what questions we could address in a similar fashion. The response was consistent and clear: “Thanks for those board decks — hope to use them someday — but I’m still raising a seed round right now. What makes a great pitch deck?” This answer was somewhat surprising — there seem to be several templates like this which already exist. So, we hope these two deck resources can address both issues.
