How long is the longest pitch you have seen so far ??

So......i got sent this email today sayiing "excellent pitch for......." with a single FYI in the subject and an attachement.

Opened it and well.....i kept skimming through and through and through until I reached slide 83 and I took a second to think about it. How can you sit with a client and BS him / her for 83 slides; ofcourse I understand that a lot of these slides are league tables and credentials and other BS thrown into the mix, but if a client sees 80 slides infront of him I wonder what will happen.

Will he sit up straight and look excited like a 5 year old on christmas, or will he secretly think to himself "NOT AGAIN".

What do you all think ?

 

As I am one of the poor analysts , I do agree :) I was not a banker for as long as people at my desk or my manager, but I mean come on, why will the guy care about a graph / pic showing god knows what to go to market.

I totally agree with the metrics point that is of interest and then it all comes down to 2 people sitting down doing business and striking a deal !!! but maybe I am wrong, as I am not part of that process due to my "Junior" status.

Maybe I do not have quotes under my name on google, but I KEEP IT REAL
