When you’re a startup, asking for money is complicated. So complicated that in recent years a cottage industry has formed with the specific purpose of helping companies go out for rounds.

Here to tell us about it is Zach Grosser, the founder & managing director of Zacht Studios, a presentation design agency that’s worked with clients like Nextdoor, Square, Adobe and Dropbox, among others. Zach and his team help companies prepare for the most important (and oftentimes, most secretive) presentation they’ll ever give. Today we shine some daylight on the process, answering questions like:
