Welcome to PitchQuest®
PitchQuest® is an online education and coaching program that takes startup founders on a strategic journey from an early stage idea to a viable commercial venture that’s ready to pitch for investment.
Follow a structured, self-paced program of learning that provides focus on the core pillars of business planning, customer discovery and marketing planning, competitive advantage, financial projections, legal protection and strategic articulation of the problem, solution and opportunity to transform your idea into a viable commercial solution for investors.
PitchQuest® assists early stage startups to create a strategic and professional pitch deck that makes every slide count when pitching to investors.
The PitchQuest® program takes you through the process of creating and writing a flexible pitch deck, which easily adapts to the
three most common types;
-
A detailed presentation, which can be sent unaccompanied to prospective investors;
-
A presentation suited to verbal face-to-face pitches; and
-
A presentation suited to time-based competitions

Can't I just Google "Pitch Deck Template" and get it for free?"It's true that there are lots of free pitch deck powerpoint templates on the internet, but there's a couple of problems. Firstly, they are generally badly designed and don't often have all the slide types that a standard pitch deck requires. Secondly, they are just powerpoint templates. They don't help you come up with the content to put on your slides, or tell you how to develop the upfront thinking in order to write your pitch deck. For example, how can you put a slide together showing a proof of your concept, such as; "83% surveyed said they would buy our product once it launches", if you haven't gone out to the market, met with your ideal target customer and done some research with them? If you know how to do that, go for it! If you're not sure, PitchQuest is for you! PitchQuest guides you through this thinking so you can do the work that comes before you sit down to create the pitch deck itself. And because we really want you to succeed, we also give you pre-designed, editable templates with instructions for how to create the slides.

How much does PitchQuest® cost?Lifetime access to PitchQuest is just $47 USD.
