Pitch Deck Handbook: Solution Slide

TLDR

The Solution Slide is where you show what your solution is and how it addresses the problems listed in your Problem Slide. It typically includes the name of the solution, visual depictions of the solution, a description, and lists how the solution addresses the problem(s) that were listed. This slide is placed after the Problem Slide or after the Existing Solutions Slide.

Purpose of the Solution Slide

Once the investors gain clarity on the problem, they now must gain clarity on your solution to the problem(s) that you have listed in the “Problem Slide.” The Solution Slide should give investors a very clear, visual picture of what your solution is and exactly how it addresses the problem.

Spend as much time and create as many slides as you need to explain your solution. If investors don’t have absolute clarity on what your solution is, you are guaranteed to not get a check.

Entrepreneur House: Year 1 in Review

Back in January of 2018, a group of friends and myself gathered to talk about what we could do to help and connect entrepreneurial students here at CU Boulder. We came up with tons of ideas from an online map that helped people meet up around campus to renting a house purely for entrepreneurs. Emails were sent out to groups and various schools on campus to figure out if students were looking to get into entrepreneurship or just to be involved in a community of driven people. In the end, the plans all revolved around one core idea: Surround yourself with people who push you to be better on a daily basis. We weren't only aiming for the purebred entrepreneur.
