Should you share your deck with investors in advance?

1) Create a pre-meeting "package" to share. It can be a short deck, a list of bullet points, plain text summary in email, and/or a pre-recorded demo. This package should be enough to explain the basics of your business (idea description, current stage, location, current round), but not enough details to make the final judgement before talking to you.

2) Create a more comprehensive post-meeting package.This can include a longer deck, a text doc with frequently asked investor questions, team resumes, customer testimonials, metrics, roadmaps, etc.

Share the first package with intro-makers and investors before the meeting. Then, share the full package after the first meeting if/when the investor indicates interest in setting up a follow-up meeting.
