  Pitch Decks: What You Really Need to Know

  Sean Jones, MS, MBA, 3X Founder | Investor | Psychotherapist | Entrepreneur |, Whats In The Bowl Enterprises

  TOPIC CATEGORY: Business

  Most founders will hate this talk. But, love the results.

  Most founders are terrible at pitch decks.

  Not because they are bad founders or operators.

  Because they cannot shut up about the wrong things.

  They confuse information with persuasion.

  They confuse detail with credibility.

  They confuse explaining the business with selling the opportunity. MORE >

  That mistake costs them meetings, money, momentum, and sometimes the company.

  This talk tells founders what most advisors will not say out loud:

  Your pitch deck is probably too long, too boring, too operational, too cluttered, and too focused on what you care about instead of what investors need to hear.

  Investors do not owe you their attention.

  You have to earn it.

  And you do not earn it with a 42 slide data dump.

  You earn it 15 seconds at a time.

  Fifteen seconds to make them care.

  Fifteen seconds to make them curious.

  Fifteen seconds to keep them from checking their phone.

  Fifteen seconds to get to the next 15 seconds.

  My talk is very blunt, practical, no nonsense breakdown of what a pitch deck actually needs to do.

  How do I know? I know from both sides. I am embarrassed to tell people how many pitches I have presented and failed with. I have sat through even more pitches I thought I would be interested in; and couldn't wait for the founder to leave.

  Attendees will learn how to:

  • Stop building decks that kill investor interest
  • Understand what investors actually look for first
  • Cut the slides that make you feel smart but make investors tune out
  • Build a deck that earns meetings, not polite rejection
  • Turn attention into interest, and interest into real investor conversations

  This talk is not for fragile founders who want compliments.

  It is for serious founders who want capital.

  Because the harsh truth is this:

  A great business can die behind a bad pitch.

  And most founders never realize they lost the investor before slide two.

  Jennifer Martin, MA, LPC, NCC, Clinical Therapist

  TOPIC CATEGORY: Business

  Jumping into retirement is a lot like jumping into a swimming pool on the first day of summer. The water looks refreshing, and you think you’ll like it. But you’re not sure, and you realize that you might not like it at all. MORE >

  You may not even be sure of how you want to do it. Just jump right into the deep end? Ease your way down the steps? Dive in, or just sit on the side and dangle your feet? And what if you end up in a belly flop?

  Yes, retirement is a lot like getting into a swimming pool, and there is a surprising degree of uncertainty and stress that come along with it.

  This speech covers the many aspects of retirement to consider in order to make that transition an enjoyable one from the workforce into life after work. While most materials focus only on the financial aspect of retirement, this talk will introduce the full spectrum of considerations.

  Points covered will be how to prepare for all the adjustments that a successful retirement requires, including the areas of the social, physical, relational, recreational, emotional, marital, and, yes, the financial.
