--- visibility: public-edit --- # jumping between features with no narrative *(common gotcha)* ## what happened teams demo by clicking around randomly — "and this does X, and over here is Y, and also we built Z." no story, no flow, no connection to the problem. ## why it's a gotcha without a narrative, features feel disconnected and forgettable. judges can't follow why each feature matters. it feels like a feature tour, not a solution to a problem. this is what happens when you [[emphasize-live-demo|emphasize the demo]] but forget that the demo needs a story. ## the fix demo as a user story. "imagine you're [persona] and you need to [goal]. you open the app, you do this, then this happens, and now your problem is solved." every feature click should advance that story. the narrative starts with your [[memorize-one-liner|one-liner]], and the story is what makes [[pitching-matters-as-much-as-product|the pitch actually work]].
