- snprbob86 14y agoOur pitch deck had a timeline slide where there was a horizontal line annotated with months. I jokingly suggested to our CEO/Designer that it should go up and to the right. He chuckled and asked "What should be on the Y axis?" We decided on "Awesomeness" with a scale from High to Higher. Got some good good laughs out of investors.
- prayag 14y agoThese people are in for a surprise. This time every start-up has hard figures on their graphs. It doesn't make them any less impressive.
- tarr11 14y agoHard figures make them look more honest, which is nice. Then you can actually trust them when one or two of the figures actually are impressive.
- inokon 14y agoLooking over my YC! application I think I got 5 of these squares but thankfully, no bingo. ;) Still time to edit before submission. :)
- smoyer 14y agoI thought all YC start-ups were required to report on week-on-week growth!
- tyang 14y agoHilarious.
