There are dominant South Asian and US players in the market, adding new revolutionary products to align with the evolving lifestyles, especially during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

 

Running a consumer electronics firm is one heck of a challenge. You have to invest tremendous amounts of dollars in the R&D department and promote your products in a manner that reaches the masses.

 

From the above, we learn that the consumer electronics segment is fiercely competitive. Thus, the company needs to draw a steady flow of funds to sustain itself in the market.

Slide 5: Profitable Business Model

Startups don’t fail because they lack a product; they fail because they lack customers and a profitable business model.  —  Steve Blank, an American entrepreneur.

 

Crafting a business model slide in an elevator deck is daunting, especially if you haven’t done it before.

 

Keep in mind that the elementary goal of your business model is to summarize your consumer electronics firm’s functions and business strategy.

 

After reading this slide, your audience should have a rational idea of how your firm will generate revenue, costs incurred, and what resources you have.

 

Divide your business model into nine segments.

 

The first one is the Key Resources of your firm, and the second is the Value Creation. Then come Customer Channel, Key Activities, Value Proposition, Customer Relationship, Customer Segment, Cost Structure, and Revenue.

 

Ensure that the information you put in your business slide for each of these segments must be brief.

Consistent alignment of capabilities and internal processes with the customer value proposition is the core of any strategy execution. —  Author: Robert S. Kaplan

 

The value proposition slide on a pitch deck shows what value your consumer electronics firm’s products bring to the customers.

 

It should answer the following questions:-

 

“What Benefits Do Your Products Offer”

 

“Why People Choose Your Products Over Your Market Rivals.”

 

If you haven’t identified your product benefits, sit down with your teams to figure out what your product offers.

The competitive advantage can make or break an investor deal, and it depends on how you present it.

 

This slide tells your investors more about your consumer electronics firm rather than the competition.

 

Presenting the competitive advantage in terms of features of your consumer electronics firm those others your rivals don’t have” is powerful. Explain in a broad term as an organization, but product-wise.

 

For example, strong third-party software & accessory ecosystem, positive corporate reputation, and innovation of new products/services.

 

Also, don’t forget to put forth the names of your top-three market rivals, because your investors will surely do. And, if you do in the first place in the competitive advantage slide, they may trust you to be superior in the market.

A sales and distribution channel lay out a chain of intermediaries/businesses through which your buyer makes a product purchase.

Indirect channels involve intermediaries, such as retailers or partners, before the product lands in the hands of your end-users.

 

Hence, through this slide, explain to investors your strategy to reach out to target customers.

Slide 9: Market Growth Potential

One of the crucial decision factors VCs and angel investors mull over when putting capital into a consumer electronics firm is the market's growth potential. It could be a fine line between a deal and a no-deal.

 

Therefore, you can not underestimate the importance of this slide in your pursuit of raising funds.

How do you present market size well so that the odds of getting funded considerably increase? The answer is statistics because numbers often stay in an investor’s mind and not lengthy details. The first stat could be the CAGR of the consumer electronics market, which is a whopping 7% presently.

 

Create a bar graph to show how the consumer electronics market has mushroomed in recent years and the demand for different products such as laptops, smartphones, HDD, and desktops.

 

A pie graph with the consumer electronics market share across different geographies is something you should add to the slide.

 

In a nutshell, present the metrics as facts and move on, rather than giving a long lecture on the market growth potential.

Introduce the key clients of your consumer electronics firm to illustrate your team is worth the investment dollars.

 

Mention the name of the clients along with designation and a brief that summarizes their business.

A professional picture of each client would look impressive on this slide.
