Investor pitch coaching · Founder pitch training · Pitch deck feedback
The situations
When the pitch is the thing in the way
The raise is dated
A round is open or about to be. The deck has been through four versions and the story still is not landing.
You lose them before the ask
People nod through the first half. By the time you reach what you want, the attention has gone.
The enterprise sales cycle
You are pitching a buying committee, not an investor. Same problem: too much assumed context, too early.
Demo day
A fixed date, one shot, and a room you do not control. The sequence matters more than the slides.
What makes it different
Not another pitching clinic
You pitch first.
Raphaël listens. Not for what's wrong. For what's underneath. The real story you haven't found the words for yet.
Then he digs.
He asks questions you haven't heard before: to understand your business and get to the core of your pitch. The questions are the work: they surface what you already know but have not said out loud.
Then he pitches it back.
Same product. Same raise. Different framing, sequence, weight. You hear the difference. You leave with a clear picture of what to keep.
What we do
One session, forty five minutes, online. You pitch it as you would to an investor. We listen for what is underneath rather than what is wrong, then pitch it back to you reframed: same product, same raise, different framing, sequence and weight.
What it produces
A pitch you can hear the difference in, and a clear picture of what to keep. You leave knowing why the new order works, not just that it does.
What it isn't
Not deck design and not slide consulting. Nothing here is about formatting. A better story told badly is still a bad pitch, so the work is on the words, the sequence and the argument.
Real sessions. Real reactions.
Watch what happens in the room.
You have to experience it to believe it.
What founders say
After the session
“He gave us genuinely incredible feedback on our pitch deck and elevator pitch, what’s working, what to sharpen, how to tell the story better. Sharp eye and a lot of insight. If anyone is working on their pitch or deck, seriously reach out to him: he knows his stuff.”
Ahmed Mohsen
Co-founder, Colabz-MEA
“I was glued to the screen listening — so much so I found it hard to put a word in, absorbing all the valuable info. It made so much sense, especially the storytelling and memorability. As an ad guy, we forgot to do what we do best. Real eye opener.”
Bruno El Adm
Founder, Ad Store UAE
“Pitch SHARP condenses months of learning into a few sessions. It isn’t just about picking the right angle, it’s understanding why that angle works, what it leads to, and what questions it invites. Before, by the time I reached the ask, the attention was already gone. Now I get questions like ‘how did you get there, tell me more.’ It’s far less stressful, and it keeps the listener engaged. Whether you’re pitching to investors or clients, it comes down to the same thing: being prepared for what they’re hearing, and what they’re picturing next.”
Viktoria Camp
CEO & Co-founder, Affinect
“Working with Raphaël was a game changer. He pitched my idea back to me in a way that led with value and made people immediately understand why it was needed. What I found fascinating was how he simplified my pitch without losing any of its substance, the core of the idea stayed fully intact. It helped me articulate the concept quickly and clearly. Highly recommend.”

Pitch SHARP
Group Workshop
Coming soon
Each founder pitches. Raphaël digs, asks questions you haven't heard before, then pitches it back. You leave with a sharper pitch and a clear picture of what to keep. Then you watch the next founder go through the same process. Different pitch, same patterns. You start seeing things you didn't notice before. You'll work in small groups, get 1:1 time with Raphaël, and practice on stage.

What you are committing to
Typical shape, not a fixed package
How long
One session, forty five minutes, online.
Your time
Forty five minutes and a pitch you have not over-polished.
What you keep
The pitch reframed, and the reasoning behind the new order.
Bring the version you have. A rough pitch is more useful than a finished one, because the gaps are easier to see.

It does not need to be finished. A rough version is more useful than a polished one, because the gaps are easier to see.
