When Lynn Greenberg—Forbes-featured entrepreneur and founder of Pivt—reached out to us to design the Series A investor pitch deck for her company, she wasn’t just looking for “slides.” She needed a visual pitch that could communicate a personal story, define a growing market opportunity, and make the business case for a platform designed to support an increasingly mobile workforce.
Her ask was simple: help Pivt stand out in front of serious investors.
Our goal? Deliver a pitch deck that looked polished, walked investors through a compelling narrative, and highlighted real traction and revenue potential.
Who Is Pivt For? And Why Does It Matter?
Before jumping into the design, we needed to understand the why behind the brand.
Pivt is a social app made for relocated, remote, and mobile employees. Think of it as the digital bridge between someone who’s just landed in a new city and the people, info, and experiences that help them feel at home. It’s used by corporations and relocation management companies to reduce employee churn and boost satisfaction during high-stress transitions.
But here’s the problem they solve: companies spend an average of $90K relocating an employee. And still, more than 1 in 3 leave early—often for social reasons like isolation or poor acclimation.
That's a huge waste of money and talent. Pivt steps in where most relocation benefits fall short—by focusing on the human side of the move.
What We Delivered: A Pitch Deck That Balances Emotion and Business
We didn’t just design a “pretty” presentation. We built a tool to win investor confidence.
Here’s how we approached it:
1. Start With the Story
We opened with Lynn’s personal journey. Straight out of college, she moved to London for a job at Bloomberg. New city. New life. But no network. That loneliness stuck with her—and years later, it sparked the idea for Pivt.
Investors don’t just back ideas—they back founders. So we made sure Lynn’s story was front and center, creating an emotional hook before diving into numbers.
2. Highlight the Market Pain Point
From there, we laid out the issue: relocation is expensive and often fails.
- 40% of relocations don’t work out.
- The top concern? Lack of social connection (HSBC & Internations data).
- Companies, RMCs, and DSPs are all impacted.
By spotlighting both data and human consequences, we helped frame Pivt as a no-brainer solution.
3. Introduce the Solution: Pivt
We broke down Pivt’s features with clean, simple visuals:
- A mobile app that connects employees based on shared interests, life situations, or goals.
- A company-specific internal community platform.
- City guides, local recommendations, and live experts to help people navigate their new surroundings.
Rather than showing every feature in detail, we focused on what mattered most to investors: how the product supports retention, engagement, and performance.
4. Go Deep on the Business Model
One of the standout slides in the deck was the revenue model.
Pivt charges companies $10 per user/month. Family access is included, boosting perceived value. And it delivers tangible savings:
- Even a 1% drop in relocation attrition can save a company millions.
- Pivt’s average cost per employee is less than a cup of coffee a week—yet it could prevent early exits that cost $90K+ each.
We broke this down visually, slide by slide, making sure investors could see exactly how scalable and cost-effective the solution is.
5. Traction and Real-World Results
To show Pivt wasn’t just an idea, we highlighted their Dallas beta:
- 600,000 potential users in the pipeline
- 10 LOIs signed
- 7 contracts closed
- $1.2M in ARR after a short post-launch window
That kind of momentum can’t be ignored. We designed this section to feel confident, clean, and ROI-focused.
Investor-Ready Slides That Land the Message
We worked closely with Lynn and her team to structure and refine the visual flow of the entire deck. Key elements included:
- A clean, modern slide layout optimized for both live presentations and email sharing
- Smart use of whitespace to help data breathe
- Simple, bold headlines for each section
- Intuitive visuals that showed rather than told (graphs, maps, user flows)
- Consistent branding, fonts, and iconography to reinforce credibility
The tone? Confident but human. No jargon. Just plain talk backed by numbers and stories.
Why This Project Stands Out
This wasn’t just a pitch deck—it was a narrative built to land funding. It showed the market opportunity. It gave investors a reason to care. And it proved the product already had traction.
From concept to delivery, we helped transform raw ideas and screenshots into a story that could close deals.
Here's what Lynn had to say:
“PowerVision Studio did a few pitch decks for my company and we were always very impressed. They were very responsive, timely, and talented.”
That’s what we aim for—design work that works.
Key Results From the Final Pitch Deck
- Helped position Pivt for Series A funding in a $46B market
- Communicated traction with clear visual storytelling
- Created visual assets Lynn could reuse in follow-ups and marketing
- Balanced emotion, data, and simplicity in every slide
