You’re sending your deck to an investor. Millions of dollars are on the line. Here’s how to do it right…

An Oldie But a Goodie

The best way to send your deck is the simplest: a PDF attachment.

One click, and the investor is in your deck. Once he’s there, he’ll see your amazing traction and write you a check! 

If he wants to forward your deck to other investors, a PDF makes that easy. This can result in a cascade of money.

The Dangers of Docsend

A Docsend link works, but it’s not as easy to save and forward. And why should you pay Dropbox and manage another product?

If you insist on Docsend, never require an e-mail, password, or one of those awful “magic links.” They encourage the investor to say, “Who cares?” and move on to the next.

You don’t want to make an investor’s job harder. You want to make it easy for them to give you money!

But What If My Competitors See It?

Some founders insist on e-mails and passwords because they’re afraid their competitors will see their deck. This isn’t worth worrying about, especially for an early stage company. 

Your biggest problem will be getting anyone to care! What’s most important is to get the right people involved, ASAP.
