Investors want to see you as a successful entrepreneur, but that doesn’t mean they’re going to invest just because you’re smart and a good person. You have to prove to them that you’re worth their time and money. And what does your pitch deck need to look like to get the investors’ attention? We went through the data to figure out the answer.
