Precision Masquerading as Accuracy
The overly detailed financial projections in your deck aren't helping
“Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face.” - Mike Tyson
Intricate spreadsheets? They’re just plans.
Investors don’t need a pitch deck that contains overly detailed projections 5+ years out. They aren’t fooled by precision masquerading as accuracy.
Investors know the market will “punch you in the face” repeatedly, rendering rigid, long-term forecasts naive.
Instead, sell the vision. What future are you building? And then, ground it in a clear, compelling short-term financial picture.
A pitch deck isn’t about perfect foresight; it’s about presenting a clear-eyed strategy and showing that you and your brand have the agility to adapt.
