There are general solicitation issues, and the there are pitch control issue. First, your deck should never be sent without a document management system, like Decile Hub. From a general solicitation standpoint, this should not be done, technically. It’s better to send an exciting blurb about you and get a meeting first without mentioning the fund. From a pitch control standpoint, I have never seen a deck really help. It creates an easy way for the prospect to say no without meeting. It’s always better to get a meeting, build rapport, and then do the deck in a second meeting. Most larger family offices have investment processes that involve due diligence. Some take months. It’s important to meet with them to understand their process. *Don’t send the deck. Get the meeting.*
