Solution Slide
Reasons for including a solution slide
You should have persuaded the investors that there is a significant problem that needs to be solved if you and they both made it past the first few slides of your pitch deck. It’s off to a good start!
Give a brief explanation of your plan for solving this issue now.
Make an effort to always present your solution most practically and creatively possible. Investors love to hold and interact with tangible products, so bring one along if you have one. Display any mockups, illustrations, videos, or demos you have for your digital product. Investors should be impressed by both your current assets and your future additions.
For some products, it’s also a smart idea to create a narrative that illustrates how your offering enriches the lives of potential buyers.
ProTip:
Most business owners fail to recognize that venture capitalists prioritize amazing people over innovative concepts. Take the investors on a journey of how you came up with the solution to further demonstrate your ability to solve the issue. It is a nice way to show your thought processes and gain more confidence.
