Would you like to spend 60 minutes being pitched to by some extremely talented and interesting business owners?
On a mutually convenient time and date we set up a conference call using Zoom (better than Skye!). Each entrepreneur has 5-10 minutes of your time where they will pitch their business idea or angle to you as though you’re meeting them or hearing from them for the first time.
I personally train the entrepreneurs before they speak with you and they will have covered some of my training modules on how to pitch.
You are to critique their pitch, offer constructive feedback with improvements or recommendations on what they should say more or less of. You can even give them ideas on which outlets could be interested in hearing from them as you show your expertise in journalism to each person on the call.
The meeting is held on Zoom so you can be wherever you are in the world – all you need is strong Wifi. We have the camera and recorder switched on so that they can engage with you and also so that they can refer back to your words of wisdom after the Pitch Clinic.
You never know, you may end up with a new story or expert for your books!
