The purpose of standing out is so that you don't get inadvertently ignored. The point of the post wasn't to talk about what I look for in pitches. It's to illustrate what happens when you're an entrepreneur sending a deck to an investor. This is a viewpoint that I didn't have before as an entrepreneur and thought would be useful to other entrepreneurs.
Investors see lots of decks and realistically don't have time to do a deep dive for an hour or more on each one given the volume. This could be a flaw with the industry, but these are the circumstances that entrepreneurs have to work with right now to get noticed to even get that deeper dive meeting.
