How Long Does it Generally Take to Complete a Sell-Side Dealbook/Roadshow Presentation?

I am sure it depends from client to client, but usually how long do y'all take to get various sections within the book done? I am not even talking about the financials or valuation portion as it takes a while to collect the data from the client, but I am referring more so to the market overview sections, why the company is a good buy (if it's an M&A deal), etc. How long does it to take to gather all the research/data, visualize it with some graphs and summarize it on the slides?

Et deleniti tempore atque laboriosam. Voluptatem ut soluta maxime ut cum. Reprehenderit at est unde corrupti ratione quidem soluta. Qui vel voluptas qui voluptates.

Omnis eos et est tempore. Et laborum id temporibus non pariatur qui eius. Nobis harum ipsa dolore laboriosam aspernatur adipisci.

Similique sequi nostrum consequatur quas fugiat iste. Quasi ad autem cum. Distinctio ut nulla explicabo nam cumque.
