Case Study: Creating a Pitch Deck with AI

Jen Phillips April from Digital Copywriter detailed how she used AI tools, including Gemini Deep Research, to create a high-value sales pitch deck. Here's a summary of the process:

1. Used ChatGPT to list the components of a pitch deck.
2. Prepared questions about goals, target audience, finances, and projections.
3. Recorded a client call using reader.ai.
4. Fed the transcript into ChatGPT to break it down into a pitch deck format.
5. Used Gamma, an AI slide deck generator, to create a slide presentation.
6. Revised and fine-tuned the details.

This process saved hours compared to creating a pitch deck from scratch. The AI tools helped to distill the essential information and present it in a visually appealing format.
