How do you learn about a specific topic? I’m the type of person who reads everything he can get his hands on, especially when I’m very interested in something. I was wondering recently if there are any good books on how to give a great pitch or create an awesome pitch deck.And let me tell you one thing: there are many, many books on how to give a pitch. or about how you can create a pitch deck. Since I’m very interested in pitching, I’ve taken the time to read them all, but I don’t want to keep the things I read a secret. I’ll give you my personal top 10 pitch deck books. I also added books from different areas. The reason is that if you want to create an impressive pitch presentation, you need to think about your communication and selling skills, the words you use and how you’re gesturing, and most of all, your audience. things: they get people to understand, they get people to care, and they get people to act.

You are reading: Best books on pitching
In her book, Pink illustrates that everyone works in sales these days. and so it stands to reason that he thinks that selling and moving others is the essential skill of our time. Throughout the book, he tells many real-life stories that help you understand the mechanics of why some sales pitches work and others don’t. One idea that I think is helpful for all founders is that you should try to draw your audience into your presentation. If you can get the investor to join you at the beginning of your presentation, it will all feel more like a mutual collaboration.
what you will learn by reading this book
- why everyone works in sales!
- why is launching more about serving than receiving?
- how to sell
- how to prepare to sell
- how the best salespeople work
