Exit Strategy Slide
Why your pitch deck should include an exit strategy slide

I can assure you that even before investing in your business, your investor was considering an exit strategy. He’s most likely given the exit a lot of thought. Your investor may decide to sell his shares at some point to maximize his profits. It is in his nature; that is how an investor operates.

List any businesses that might one day be interested in purchasing your business on this slide. Additionally, you could include a list of comparable businesses that have recently been sold. Remember to include the name of the purchaser and the exit valuation.

A focus on how to dominate your local market rather than finding potential customers may also not be seen favourably. your area.
