Hello Hany,

 

I'll give this a shot...First, about me: I've both pitched and listened to pitches. I have spent most of my career in startups/small businesses.

Here are a few tips: 

Always place yourself in the prospective investors' shoes.

  1. Consider how they are feeling, reacting and receiving.
  2. Remember that when they ask a question they are listening to how you answer more than your actual answer.
  3. They are thinking, "if this guy will waste my time, this guy will waste my cash."
  4. Make it a value proposition; highlight the gains; they already know the risks.
  5. Identify the problem (market opportunity) then briefly highlight your solution (business idea). If you do this well, they will ask questions.
  6. Be fast, clear, and concise. 
  7. Remember it's a conversation, not a presentation.
