Know what to change in your pitch deck — and why.

Get personal feedback on your startup’s story and a clear order for revisions, without guessing which changes matter most.

I’ll review your deck before we meet, then walk you through my findings. We’ll discuss where the message is getting lost and how to make the business’s value easier for your audience to understand.

You’ve revised the deck. You need a clearer view of what it needs.

After spending enough time with the same slides, it becomes difficult to read them as someone encountering your business for the first time.

You might be unsure whether the opening explains the opportunity, whether important details are missing, or whether the explanation has become too complicated. Feedback from other people can leave you with competing suggestions and no clear sense of which to act on.

The Live Audit gives you my assessment of the deck you’re working on, considered alongside its audience and purpose. You’ll understand the reasoning behind my recommendations so you can make informed changes.

Feedback specific to your business and your deck.

I’ll review your deck using the Perfect Pitch Deck Framework, my approach to structuring a startup’s story and deciding what each slide needs to communicate. I’ll consider those choices in relation to your audience and the purpose of your presentation. My review covers:

  • How clearly the value comes across. Can someone unfamiliar with the business understand the problem you address, what you make possible and why your approach matters?

  • Where the story becomes difficult to follow. I’ll identify gaps, repetition and sequencing issues that ask the audience to fill in too much for themselves.

  • What deserves space in the presentation. We’ll discuss what needs more explanation, what can be simplified and what belongs in supporting material.

  • How the design supports the message. I’ll assess readability, visual hierarchy and consistency, with recommendations for helping the audience see what matters.

The review brings those findings into a practical order for revisions, so you know where to begin.

What’s included

My review before we meet

You’ll send your deck and tell me about its audience, purpose and any concerns you want me to consider. I’ll review those materials in advance so our session can focus on the findings and your questions.

A private session to work through the recommendations

We’ll meet over Google Meet for 60–90 minutes, with 90 minutes reserved. I’ll explain my assessment, hear the context behind your choices and discuss how you can strengthen the presentation.

A written review you can use as you revise

Within 48 hours of our session, I’ll send your written review incorporating our discussion, with recommendations and priorities you can refer to as you work on the deck.

Who you'll be working with

Christopher Pressey, brand strategist and designer
I’m Christopher Pressey, a brand strategist and designer with more than 25 years of experience. I’m also a founder and a former business-incubator leader.

My work with founders has included helping them explain complex businesses and reviewing the decks they use to do it. I bring that experience to both the story your deck tells and the way its design helps someone understand it.

You’ll work directly with me throughout the Audit.

Before you book

Does my deck need to be finished?

You need a draft I can review, but it doesn’t need to be polished. Share the presentation you’re working on and the decisions you’re struggling with.

Will you rewrite or redesign my slides?

The Audit includes my assessment, our live discussion and written recommendations. You’ll make the revisions yourself. If you’d like me to handle the writing or design, we can discuss a separate pitch deck engagement.

Can the Audit fee go toward a larger project?

Yes. If you move forward with a larger pitch deck package within 30 days, your $495 Audit fee will be credited toward that project.

What happens after I purchase?

You’ll receive your personal intake link on the confirmation page and by email. Use it to upload your deck and provide the context for my review.

You’ll then choose an available meeting time. Appointments begin two days after purchase, subject to availability.

I’ve already purchased the Perfect Pitch Deck Workshop. Can I apply that payment toward the Audit?

Yes. Your workshop payment can be applied toward this Audit for 30 days after your workshop purchase. Enter the credit code you received at checkout.

The credit equals the amount you paid after discounts, excluding tax, up to $97 USD. Complimentary workshop registrations don’t generate a credit.

Give your next revision a clear direction.

Get my assessment of your deck, talk through the recommendations with me and put your effort into the changes that matter.
