Mint’s pre-launch preso: 3 examples of ‘bottom line on top’ violations
Mint.com Pre-Launch Pitch Deck
This is a great, data-packed preso, but there are several slides that violate the ‘bottom line on top’ advice that the Startup Swami, Matt Douglas, has given me on numerous occasions. Check out slides on 4, 6, 7 & 9. The most important thing on the slide — the meat — is buried in the slide (most of the time at the bottom), and in a smaller font.
You should be hammering one-liners like those home in any kind of presentation; front and center, right on top.
