finally, it's time to actually ask for the money. that's why you're doing this pitch deck, right? i know---i said that this pitch deck isn't about actually getting funded. that's still true, but your potential investors do need to know how much money you are looking for.
more importantly, you need to be able to explain why you need the amount of money you are asking for and how you plan on using the money. investors will want to know how their money is being used and how it is going to help you achieve the goals you are setting out for your business.
