800 downloads + 1st anniversary

"Why do you sell presentation templates?" "It's not innovative at all?"

I get these questions frequently.

But a year ago, I decided to practice and showcase my presentation design skills. This project started based on my experience as a founder, venture builder, and seed investor now.

I believed a great presentation is a mixture of content, design, and storytelling. I really enjoy the design part.

Since then, I've been selling templates on my website and showcasing design inspirations on Instagram every week.

This is a small project that I enjoyed putting an hour or two every week. And it's now covering my Starbucks budget :)

I'm also glad to share a few major updates:

  • Crossed 800 downloads (free + paid)
  • Move from Squarespace to Carrd earlier this month
  • Using Gumroad was a huge success and I have no regret
  • Currently developing another affordable template to cater more business needs
