Roasting Startup Pitch Decks

A lot of people who always ask me for feedback on their startup and their pitch deck. Well, I got connected with a few startups who were willing to let me roast their pitch decks. Watch to hear the full story.

Thank you to all the startups who were such good sports and letting me give feedback! All of them did great, so it was a pleasure to do this :)

A HUGE thank you to all the startups for sending me their decks for me to give feedback on! Which one was your favorite?

[ehsanziya]

You should definitely make this a recurring series on your channel.

[rickhmason]

Justin,

I vote for this to become a regular feature on your channel. I think over time it can help people build much better decks.

[SalarymanNoMore]

MORE OF THIS - It was both hilarious and actually very instructive. It almost felt like a more relatable version of Shark Tank.

[MarioVreco]

Last guys reaction was like he was held hostage lmao

[JasperXoR]

super quiet audio once you get to reviewing. had all my volume sliders maxed and still struggling to hear.

[kevinpowell]

Dude keep doing this. Startups almost never get meaningful feedback from their decks. It’s great to see inside the mind of someone of your caliber

[ProjectStuff]

when you are looking for seed funding but already got that Patagonia jacket for the whole team ;)

[delouvois]

Am I the only one getting a huge sync issue ? I can't be just me, that impossible.
Anyway, I second everyone's comments that this format is awesome and should become recurring thing.
By FAR the best concept that emerged from that channel.

But I just can't watch it, it's basically desynced and unwatchable, what the hell.

From 2:56, we learn Justin's 3 favorite things are
1. Weed
2. Psychedelics
3. Memes
thank you justin

[lorefort]

lol "disconnected rich guy" brilliant.

This video was seriously good to see that kind of candid feedback.

[frenkystein]

I think this needs to be like a monthly or bi-weekly type of content. So many founder will find something like this extremely beneficial

[CloudyDaze]

Soundmind's entire concept gave me red flags the moment they mentioned Mental Health and AI in the same sentence. Thats a really finicky combination. That pitch was loaded with buzzwords.

[JuiicyComp]

This was one of those videos where I sat down and didn't even notice this time fly by. Great video Justin!

[basenvy]

Please do MORE of this type of content! Can't remember someone else doing this, I'm guessing it's due to the difficulty of finding founders who are willing to share their decks to get Roasted? Anyways, great video.

[SpiriTBladEi]

For the last app it would be a nice feature for them to automatically include the additional gas price/transportation cost (and maybe time investment) that would arise, if the store that would save you money on the products is farther away then the "default" store.

Because I can already see the ultimate argument of some people: "Well you save on products but the additional transportation cost and time investment doesn't save you anything at all in the end"... The feature described above would be the argument against it.

Having experience in music, soundstorm is really a good idea. It’s like patreon for musician, and making the process more open.. but i feel like this will only work with independent artists or small-medium labels. Some of the music producing is top to buttom.. producers/songwriters sell their song to labels or artists. So if they can bring in this other side of the market they could break the big labels

[isholapinheiro]

Really insightful feedback. My deck wasn't in this and i still learnt some dos and donts. You should definitely make more of these

[mx]

Agreed its good to show people the reality of the other side reviewing these… reality is that it’s way harder than most people imagine to get the ball moving.

[memereddit]

I loved this video, please do more of these in the future! It’s extremely helpful to see real-time constructive feedback from someone authoritative as I am also working on a startup and will have to look into funding, pitches, decks in a few months!
