- ♞ Knak Deck Breakdown
In partnership with
Today, we will look at a Series A deck from Knack used to raise $25M.
Simple opening slide, could have more information but this isn’t a major issue.
Great perspective framer; this slide makes it so that anyone can appreciate the problem/solution. Without this slide those without a marketing background might not appreciate the product that is being built.
This smart home company grew 200%…
No, it’s not Ring or Nest—it’s RYSE, a leader in smart shade automation, and you can invest for just $1.90 per share.
RYSE’s innovative SmartShades have already transformed how people control their window coverings, bringing automation to homes without the need for expensive replacements.
This year alone, RYSE has seen revenue grow by 200% year over year and expanded into 127 Best Buy stores, with international markets on the horizon. Plus, with partnerships with major retailers like Home Depot and Lowe’s already in the works, they’re just getting started.
Now is your chance to invest in the company disrupting home automation—before they hit their next phase of explosive growth. But don’t wait; this opportunity won’t last long.
Past performance is not indicative of future results. Email may contain forward-looking statements. See US Offering for details. Informational purposes only.
It’s missing a clear problem slide that should have come after the perspective framer to really nail home the specific pain point and how it is being solved. Ignoring that this is a decent product/solution slide.
This is a wasted slide it doesn’t provide any information at all.
This is a “talking slide” but it doesn’t need to be there, this should be mixed into real content that drives forward a story.
This slide should have come right after the product/solution to show why they are unique. It’s really a Why Now? type slide.
With the strength of this team, I would have placed the team slide earlier in the deck. This is the real selling point so far.
