Create a one pager for your startup to pitch to investor

Create​ ​A​ ​One​ ​Pager​ ​To​ ​Pitch​ ​Your​ ​Startup​ ​To​ ​Investors A​ ​one-pager​ ​is​ ​essentially​ ​a​ ​written​ ​pitch​ ​of​ ​your​ ​company.​ ​It​ ​is​ ​a​ ​simple​ ​and​ ​short document​ ​that​ ​gives​ ​a​ ​high-level​ ​overview​ ​of​ ​a​ ​product,​ ​service,​ ​or​ ​a​ ​business.​ ​It​ ​is like​ ​a​ ​modern​ ​version​ ​of​ ​a​ ​brochure.

Investors​ ​often​ ​see​ ​your​ ​one-pager;​ ​as​ ​the​ ​executive​ ​summary​ ​of​ ​your​ ​project.​ ​It​ ​is at-a-glance​ ​a​ ​fact​ ​sheet​ ​summarizing​ ​every​ ​important​ ​point​ ​about​ ​your​ ​business.

One​ ​pager​ ​is​ ​used​ ​for​ ​promoting​ ​your​ ​business​ ​or​ ​what​ ​you’re​ ​offering,​ ​your​ ​vision and​ ​why​ ​you​ ​stand​ ​out​ ​from​ ​the​ ​competition​.​ ​It​ ​is​ ​also​ ​a​ ​presentation​ ​used internally​ ​when​ ​discussing​ ​your​ ​venture​ ​with​ ​other​ ​partner​ ​and​ ​investors.​ ​When you​ ​want​ ​pitch​​ ​your​ ​business,​ ​most​ ​people​ ​probably​ ​listen​ ​half​ ​or​ ​won’t​ ​listen​ ​to you​ ​at​ ​all.​ ​Presenting​ ​yourself​ ​with​ ​a​ ​bulk​ ​of​ ​the​ ​paper​ ​is​ ​not​ ​going​ ​to​ ​work​ ​in​ ​the 21st​ ​century.​ ​There​ ​are​ ​many​ ​online​ ​tools​ ​that​ ​help​ ​to​ ​build​ ​your​ ​startups​.​ ​You should​ ​pick​ ​a​ ​platform​ ​that​ ​let’s​ ​you​ ​keep​ ​your​ ​one​ ​pager​ ​up​ ​to​ ​date.
