This is the place to do a demo. Ten minutes is long enough. Try not to get sucked into a long demo so you can’t finish your presentation.
No one can forecast that far ahead, but people want to see your vision for how the company evolves. Be conservative—put up numbers that you are 90% confident that you can meet. But don’t say that you’re being conservative because you’re not—you’re pulling numbers out of the air and you have no idea what will happen.
3-4 key people. Highlights only. Use the logos of recognizable past employers. Do not list your accountant, law firm, and other vendors. You’re paying them. They’re not “investing” in you. If you’re going to list advisors, ensure that they are really well-known for the market you’re going after.
How will you introduce your product or service? How will you achieve critical mass? Sorry but “we’ll go viral” isn’t a strategy. Neither is “word-of-mouth.”Tactics, tactics, tactics--not wishful thinking
