[Workshop] Fine-Tune Your Startup Pitch (FTYSP)

• Not feeling right about your pitch?
• You’ve done some pitches and people just can’t seem to understand what is it you do?
• Investors don’t understand how it can be made a business?

The Fine-Tune Your Startup Pitchcourse is about making one feel more aware of what happens when one pitch. The mechanics. You can think of it as everything you should and shouldn't do (should not must), and how to avoid the common traps. You will hear the words" For Example" a lot, as I believe in showing more than explaining. Why should you listen? Beause i have crashed and burned. And as Gagan Biyani (the Co-founder of Udemy) said, you fail at pitching way more than you succeed - this is exactly why you need to know what happens when you pitch? To you, and your audience. and yes, of course i have raised money, and acquired customers, and presented at conferences, and pitched pitched pitched... I'm sharing combined experience of being an entrepreneur and an instructional designer.

What will you learn? That’s a great question (Dealing with Questions lecture #11)

Let’s set something in stone, there is no right or wrong here. There is however better or worse, moving forward or standing still. Only Through myyears as a trainer on how to Improve Presentation Skills, I have learned that first of all, the pitcher needs to know what style he feels more comfortable with – that’s the cornerstone of it all. So you will learn different styles and different key pitching facts (about audience, attention span, types of questions, etc.) that each and everyone can choose to focus on, for it will give you more confidence and improve your skills. Remember, you can’t become a perfect pitcher overnight, it takes practice, but it helps when you have several skill-sets to choose to focus on... Come Focus.
