I have never voluntarily looked at a startup's deck. As soon as a founder starts to open their laptop, I ask them to stop, and just tell me in words what their startup does.

The puzzling thing about this is the right to invest. Surely founders who'd pay a "deck designer" $20-40k are the last ones you'd want to invest in.https://twitter.com/JasonrShuman/status/1207869785402486791 …

It's not just that I hate decks. Explaining a startup in conversation is a much more exacting test.

It's almost like large amounts of money attract charlatans or something.

If founder needs someone else to design the deck, for 1, you obv got no growth or good numbers, and 2, you’re doing startups wrong

If a pitch deck cost that much, either the designer is screwing you over, or your material needs way too much fixing for it to be ready to pitch. Investing in a presentation is a good idea, but one for 40k means something is way off.
