They said it on a podcast.
I have even read documents on blogs by law firms close to VCs & tech firms that describe pitch decks as a "hook" — as in like the bait used to catch a fish.
- JumpCrisscross 2y ago> They said it on a podcast Let me guess, All In? They make money on eyeballs. Their job is to be provocative, irrespective of the truth (or their track records in VC). > describe pitch decks as a "hook" — as in like the bait used to catch a fish “Hooking” customers is a common sales analogy. Particular when you’re playing a numbers game, where the individual characteristics matter less than the yield. Like in fishing.
