    Episode 3: What's Your Pitch?

    In this episode, we talk about pitching - what's the balance between your off-the-cuff pitch versus your slide deck, how do you convey your skills without coming across as ego-heavy, and insight from people who's done it all before. Thanks to all our contributors, including Craig Willis of Skore, David Odier of Launch Mappers, Hywel Carver of Skiller Whale, Sara Stephens of Rest Less (second-time guest!), Kirill Khrestianovskii of Meyvn, Claire Cherry of True Capital and David Houghton of Seedrs. Deck Support is produced by Rich Kershaw and Emilie Leckie.  We cover real stories from people growing tech startups, and we want to hear from you.
