His Pitch Deck Templates Make $15,000/Month

Maximilian Fleitmann is an entrepreneur based in Berlin 🇩🇪 and the man behind BaseTemplates, which is a collection of pitch deck and fundraising templates.

Max shared in a recent interview…

The business right now is making $15k+ per month on amazing margins.

🤑 Max didn’t actually start the business but acquired it…

In 2019 I was still operating my education startup, but was always attracted to test out new ideas. With one of these ideas, I wanted to participate in a contest. As I needed to build a pitch deck quickly, I searched for a great-looking and easy-to-use template.

And somehow, I found BaseTemplates Pitch Deck Template, bought it, and won the competition.

He adds…

Some weeks later, I found out that the guy who had initially created the product wanted to sell the whole business, and I was on fire right away.

So I jumped into the numbers right away and talked a lot with the founder about what already worked…

As a result, I made an offer right away, and luckily, we quickly agreed.

But 👇

When I took over BaseTemplates, just one product and a small content section existed. But there was already a regular stream of customers.

The first thing I did was create a plan that made it possible to 10x the business…

Almost four years later, BaseTemplates now offers a wide range of products and several free resources and tools. Not only was I able to massively increase the number of users who are coming to the website every day, but I was also able to increase the revenue massively.

Creating SEO-focused content was key…

When I took over BaseTemplates, there was mainly organic traffic which came from a couple of blog articles… I wrote 30 new blog posts and created specific pages for long-tail keywords like “Pitch Deck Business Model Slide”.

I see Max has recently introduced BaseTemplates Pro, which is a software that comes with templates, a CRM to reach out to investors, and gives you access to investor databases.

With that, Max has taken BaseTemplates from a simple template website to a multifaceted business with increasing revenue 📈

To follow in his footsteps, think about the products you buy online, especially digital products.

If you find a product you really like or with potential, you could inquire about buying the business, or perhaps start your own (better) version 💪
