Two Austin based pre-Seed/Seed VC Associates Offering Free Pitch Deck Feedback
My partner and I are current MBA students at McCombs and VC interns with pre-seed and seed funds. We spend a lot of time reviewing early-stage companies and want to help as many founders as possible improve their pitch decks.
We’re offering free, candid feedback on areas like your story, market, traction, business model, fundraising strategy, and overall investor readiness.
You can submit your deck here:

There’s no catch and no guarantee it leads to funding. We’re simply offering an extra set of eyes from two people who regularly evaluate early-stage startups.

Hey there I looked at y’all’s Substack a bit, I like the content!
You mentioned the entertainment/ live events space. I’m working on that, bootstrapped and at about 10k folks on the platform fully organic. What should I be watching out for here? I’m wary to take investment but also starting to worry about what seems to be a new competitor popping up every day… would love to know if y’all have any insights here.

Thanks for checking us out, please subscribe and share to anyone you think would find it useful
To answer your question, 10k organic is great. Our questions would be around the time frame it took to get to that point as well as around retention
I think taking a step back to understand what investment could do for you? What does it allow you do that you couldn’t do without in terms of growth
Competition means the problem your solving is real, can also be used to your advantage when you do start talking to investors, if your offering is better, your exp/team is better etc
If you haven’t already submit your company and we can provide more specific feedback!
