Pitch Deck Design in Derby

Investor decks for Derby founders raising money. Investors read hundreds of these and spend a few minutes on each, so the deck's job is surviving that first skim with the problem, the market and the traction unmistakable — not explaining everything.

Why this comes up

The problem

Founder decks open with the product and reach the market and the numbers on slide fourteen. Investors have decided by slide five, usually before the thing that would have interested them appears.

What you get

What we deliver

  • A structure following what investors expect to find, in the order they look for it
  • Traction presented prominently and honestly, since it is the slide read most closely
  • Market sizing built bottom-up rather than a percentage of a large headline number
  • Financials summarised legibly, with the detailed model as a separate document
  • A short version for sending cold and a longer one for presenting in the room
  • Editable native files, because the deck changes after every investor conversation

Working in Derby

East Midlands

Derby is an engineering city — aerospace, rail and automotive supply chains — so the work here skews toward integration with existing plant systems, quality and compliance workflows, and reporting that has to stand up to audit.

Most work here involves connecting shop-floor and plant systems to reporting the rest of the business can actually read, plus quality and compliance workflows that have to survive an audit.

Pitch Deck Design in Derby — common questions

How many slides?
Ten to fifteen for a sending deck. Investors skim first and read properly only if the skim survives, so the constraint is not attention span but triage. A longer deck belongs in the meeting, not in the inbox.
What do investors actually look at first?
Traction, team and market, in some order. The product usually matters less than founders expect at this stage — it is evidence that something is working and that you are the people to do it.
Should we show a market size in the billions?
Only if built bottom-up and defensible. A large top-down number calculated as a percentage of a global market is a well-known signal of inexperience, and experienced investors treat it as one.
Can you help with what it says, not just how it looks?
Yes, and that is usually where the value is. A beautifully designed deck with a weak narrative fails in exactly the same way as an ugly one, just more expensively.
Do you work with businesses across Derbyshire?
Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout East Midlands, including Derby and the surrounding Derbyshire area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
What kind of Derby businesses do you usually work with?
Most work here involves connecting shop-floor and plant systems to reporting the rest of the business can actually read, plus quality and compliance workflows that have to survive an audit. Beyond that we work across Advanced Manufacturing, Aerospace, Rail Engineering, Automotive and Logistics.
Do you cover the areas around Derby?
Yes — we work throughout East Midlands, including Nottingham, Leicester, Loughborough, Birmingham. Derby is an urban area of roughly 260,000+, and we take on work across the wider Derbyshire region rather than the city boundary alone.
