From the video description

Every pitch deck ever created has this one slide. And most founders get it wrong. In this video, I break down exactly how you should calculate TAM, SAM, and SOM — and more importantly, what investors actually expect to see on this slide. The biggest mistake founders make is using the same approach for all three numbers. Top-down everywhere or bottom-up everywhere sounds logical… but it’s wrong.
