Start with the Problem

Begin your story by clearly identifying the problem your invention solves. Make it relatable and show why this problem matters to your audience.

Show Your Journey

Share your personal journey. How did you come up with this idea? What challenges did you face? People connect with authentic stories of passion and perseverance.

Paint a Picture

Use vivid language to describe your vision. Help backers imagine the world with your invention. What will change? How will it improve lives?

Show, Don't Just Tell

Use videos, images, and demonstrations to bring your story to life. A prototype video or demo is more powerful than paragraphs of text.

Make It Personal

Share your background, expertise, and why you're the right person to bring this to life. Build trust by showing your commitment and capability.

Create Emotional Connection

Appeal to emotions, not just logic. Show how your invention will make people feel better, safer, or more connected. Emotions drive action.

Be Clear and Concise

While storytelling is important, be clear about what you're building. Avoid jargon and explain complex concepts simply. Your story should be easy to understand.

End with a Call to Action

Finish your story with a clear call to action. Invite people to join your journey, become part of the solution, and help bring your vision to life.
