WHY USE THIS TOOL?

A pitch deck is a visually driven executive summary of your concept. We encourage all restaurateurs and entrepreneurs to distill their business plan down to it’s most essential components and add color to it by creating a compelling pitch deck that paints a picture of their concept with words, inspirational images, graphics, and brand touch points.   

Your pitch deck will almost always be the first document shared with internal and external stakeholders to whom you’re looking to offer a comprehensive understanding of the business you’re building.
