Mashvisor effectively frames the problem by quantifying the research time (three months) and citing a specific pain point statistic that 53% of home buyers find it difficult to find the right property. This approach immediately establishes the market problem's severity and validates the need for a solution. The focus on time-consuming, complex research creates a relatable and tangible pain point for investors to grasp.
Our Tip: Ground your problem slide in a single, powerful statistic to make the pain point undeniable and memorable for investors.
The solution directly mirrors the problem by presenting a dramatic time-saving benefit: condensing three months of research into just 15 minutes. This creates a clear and compelling value proposition that is easy to understand and remember. By emphasizing the aggregation of data from various sources, Mashvisor clearly demonstrates how it solves the core issue of fragmented information.
Our Tip: Frame your solution as a direct and quantifiable reversal of the primary pain point you established on the problem slide.
Mashvisor presents a large total addressable market by identifying a potential reach of 28 million real estate investors. This large number signals a significant market opportunity, which is crucial for attracting venture capital. While the number is broad, it effectively communicates the scale of the problem and the potential for massive growth.
Our Tip: Use a top-down market sizing approach to show the total potential, then follow up with a bottom-up analysis to prove you have a credible plan to capture a specific segment.
The traction slide is powerful, showcasing 30% month-over-month growth and $12,000 in MRR, which serves as strong validation. They also present a healthy business model by highlighting a $70 CAC against a $250 LTV. These specific metrics prove product-market fit and an efficient customer acquisition engine.
Our Tip: Showcase the relationship between your Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC) and Lifetime Value (LTV) to prove you have a sustainable and profitable business model.
Mashvisor’s deck succeeds by weaving a clear story that connects a quantifiable problem directly to a measurable solution and validates it with traction. This narrative arc makes the investment thesis simple and powerful, showing a clear path from pain point to profit. Structure your deck so each slide logically answers a question raised by the previous one, guiding investors seamlessly through your business case.
The deck builds immense credibility by anchoring every key assertion—from the problem's severity to the business model's viability—in specific, hard numbers. By quantifying traction (30% MoM growth) and unit economics ($250 LTV vs. $70 CAC), Mashvisor proves its model works in practice, not just in theory. Audit your own deck to replace vague statements like “strong growth” with the exact metrics that prove your claims and build investor trust.
