This practical workshop will give you advice and training on how to produce a perfect pitch, from how to present confidently to ensuring you communicate a meaningful and succinct message.
This will cover....
Clarifying the pitch objective
Understanding the audience (judging panel) and the Scottish EDGE criteria:
- What is their level of knowledge about you or what you’re offering? - What elements of what you do will they want to hear about? - What do you want them to think/feel/do as a result of hearing your pitch? - Understanding the key elements of the Scottish EDGE criteria
Creating the content
Identifying and understanding the areas to cover (and not cover) in the pitch to enhance the application:
- Attention grabbing hook - Problem/Painpoint - Solution - Market Size - Customers - Sales strategy/route to market - Revenue model - Competition - Team / partners / advisors - Traction - Financials - Ask
Plus how to bring the pitch to life by:
- Incorporating stories - Interpreting facts and data in an engaging manner - Using products, props and other visual aids - Limiting the word count so the delivery is not rushed
Confident delivery (with credibility and conviction)
Confidence comes from preparation not only of the content, but of the mind, body and voice. This module will cover:
- Techniques for managing nerves - Using visualisation - Effective breathing techniques - Using voice to enhance the message - The importance of confident and credible body language - Engaging the audience and building rapport - Expressing passion, energy, enthusiasm and self-belief - Preparing for and managing the Q and A session - Video versus live pitch
