Synopsis

It is the dream of every founder: Standing in front of a group of investors pitching your startup while they shower you with money and praise.
The reality is vastly different, most founders fail to raise capital from investors, often due to an underwhelming pitch in a crowded sea of startups.
Imagine having an unfair advantage, the method to create a pitch that is compelling, motivating and, most importantly, gets results?
That's where Donna Griffit’s book ‘Sticking to My Story’ comes in.
Tim Draper called this book the new bible for startup founders for a reason. It’s the A-Z recipe for creating a powerful pitch deck with all the right ingredients. Filled with tips and stories of what worked and what failed, peppered with insightful quotes from Silicon Valley Leaders.
The book will take you through:
- What investors talk about after you leave
- Getting meetings and avoiding mistakes
- Most importantly, how to craft a story-led pitch deck that gets results
Donna’s believes that there are no boring stories – there are layers of data obscuring the beauty of the story. Let Donna help peel them away and polish your story until it “shines like the top of the Chrysler building”.
