So I am putting together a rough draft sales presentation to show my fellow co-founders, that we will hopefully use to pitch a company to white label our product. I am looking for critique and any advice. Also want to note that I will not be presenting, as public speaking has never been my strong point.

So my thought is to use Prezi, as I think its a bit more engaging than Powerpoint, and havent found another great presenting tool out there (any suggestions?).

My plan is to draw a story board, highlighting the problem first using visuals, then highlight visually how our solution helps alleviate that problem. I have been told that the guys we might potentially be pitching too aren't very tech savvy, even though our product is software. Ive never done a sales presentation before, so is there anything Im missing if I start with the problem, then tell how our product is the solution, and then end with?

Thanks in advance for any help.
