I don\u2019t often<\/span> tear down angel decks for the Pitch Deck Teardown series for a pretty simple reason: The expectations that angel investors have from a pitch deck are pretty different from what professional institutional investors are looking for. Still, as I was looking through SplitBrick<\/a>\u2018s deck, I realized I have some things to say.<\/p>\n

For example, there are some major, fundamental problems with this deck that make the company pretty much impossible to invest in. Let\u2019s take a look!<\/p>\n\n

We\u2019re looking for more unique pitch decks to tear down, so if you want to submit your own, here\u2019s how you can do that<\/a>.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Slides in this deck<\/h2>\n

SplitBrick submitted an 18-slide, unredacted deck. The slides are:<\/p>\n

  1. Cover slide<\/li>\n
  2. Mission slide<\/li>\n
  3. Business models comparison<\/li>\n
  4. The SplitBrick model<\/li>\n
  5. Market analysis<\/li>\n
  6. Competitive analysis<\/li>\n
  7. How it works<\/li>\n
  8. Management structure<\/li>\n
  9. Traction and journey to date<\/li>\n
  10. \u00a0Use of funds, the ask, and roadmap<\/li>\n
  11. \u00a0The team<\/li>\n
  12. \u00a0Appendix interstitial slide<\/li>\n
  13. \u00a0Appendix: Screenshots (product walkthrough)<\/li>\n

    Three things to love<\/h2>\n

    Sure there was a lot to dislike about this deck, but it\u2019s not all bad, and there are a few points worth highlighting.<\/p>\n

    Great market context<\/h3>\n

    It\u2019s rare that a startup pitch deck needs to break down a variety of business models in an industry in order to position itself, but innovating on business models is a legitimate way to innovate, so it\u2019s a great thing to include:<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/p>\n

    [Slide 3] Breaking out the various business models helps differentiate the startup. Image Credits<\/strong>: SplitBrick<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

    There\u2019s a variety of ways to get a slice of the property action. SplitBrick boldly offers a new alternative and a fresh take on the market.<\/p>\n

    This is a great example of leading with what makes you unique. There are a lot of challenges with SplitBrick\u2019s specific strategy, but this is exactly where this type of approach shines: Innovate on the aspects of the business that are ripe for disruption, and leave the rest alone.<\/p>\n

    A clear view of the market<\/h3>\n

    I\u2019d have loved to see some sources here to show where the information is coming from, but if we take the numbers at face value, this slide does a great job of painting a clear picture of a market worth taking a closer look at:<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/p>\n

    [Slide 5] A clear view of the market opportunity. Image Credits<\/strong>: SplitBrick<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

    An elegant take at a product demo<\/h3>\n

    SplitBrick is a very early-stage company and has therefore only built an MVP. That can be challenging to demo, but the company found an interesting way to do it.<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/p>\n

    [Slide 15] In the appendix, SplitBrick shows off a user journey that\u2019s easy to follow. Image Credits<\/strong>: SplitBrick<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

    The appendix has six slides that together function as a step-by-step product demo. It shows how the company is thinking about its design language and user journey, which is a really good solution that allows investors to co-dream with the founders.<\/p>\n

    In the rest of this teardown, we\u2019ll look at three things SplitBrick could have improved or done differently, along with its full pitch deck!<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
