Joey Katzen
Startup Storyteller + Pitch Deck Maestro /// Managing Director of Hawaii Angels
About me
I hear bad fundraising pitches all the time. They're long, they're in the weeds, and they bore me. Most founders make the classic mistake of trying to "push" information at me—rather than letting me excitedly "pull" the thing that actually lights my fire. So now I help CEOs (from pre-seed startups to $1B+ enterprise debt deals) craft investor pitches that build increasing FOMO with each sentence and slide, so their prospects *crave* to hear the next one. From 25-word "bar pitches" (so-called "elevator pitches" are too long and buzzwordy) to complete fundraising decks to constructing narratives about the next fundraising round, I help CEOs distill their business stories with precision... and a view from the outside. I've helped build and exit companies, invested in dozens more, and coached startups through every stage of the fundraising mess. I've also practiced a little law, been a CMO, a CPO, designed a lot of slides, and sat on both sides of the table. Now I can leverage these lessons for maximum impact to companies who need to fundraise NOW. If you're serious about pressure-testing your verbal pitch (or doing some heavy lifting with a deck redesign), reach out. ---- Joey Katzen is an entrepreneur and attorney whose expertise has been instrumental in the founding, growth, and exit of multiple Inc-500 companies. He is the Managing Director of Honolulu-based Hawaii Angels and a volunteer Lead Mentor at Hawai'i-based Blue Startups.
