When creating a pitch deck for investors, should we prepare separate paper documents to showcase detailed financial calculations, such as bottom-up analysis, to avoid cluttering the pitch deck with too many numbers and slides? How can we strike a balance between presenting key financial highlights and providing comprehensive financial information to investors..?

good question, and yes, you absolutely should prepare detailed financial documents separately. Your pitch deck is a teaser, not a term sheet. It's meant to: Get the investor interested Highlight the business potential Show that you’ve done your homework So when it comes to financials, the deck should include: Key highlights: projected revenue, burn rate, runway Top-line metrics: LTV, CAC, gross margins, etc. Your fundraise ask and what you’ll use the capital for But keep detailed models like bottom-up TAM analysis, full 3-5 year projections, unit economics, and scenario models in a separate Financial Model or Data Room doc. Share it during/after the first meeting when deeper due diligence starts. TL;DR Pitch deck = Story + Highlights Financial model = Backup + Depth Striking this balance keeps your deck clean and shows you're prepared.
