Ever wondered how to make your pitches stand out? There are two main types: social pitches and scheduled pitches. Let's dive into the nuances of each and how they can shape your approach to pitching.

During a recent trade mission conference, we had the opportunity to pitch our services to corporations and other businesses. The experience taught us a lot about how to craft a pitch that resonates with the right audience. In this blog post we’re sharing some of the points that worked for us. Learn how to tailor your message for any audience, from casual encounters to formal investor meetings. Discover essential tips to simplify your pitch, highlight benefits, and spark curiosity. Ultimately, it comes down to being yourself. No-one knows your business like you do and a pitch is your chance to share your message with new prospects.

PART TWO: “A Pitch that Slays and Plays”- Precious L. Williams I once shrugged off my inability to connect with buyers as inevitable. But this all changed after attending SCORE’s “Elevate Your Pitch Game: Getting Clients, Customers and Funder to say “yes.” The presenter, Precious L. Williams, a winner of Shark Tank” had demonstrated her pitch and gave insightful tips. I now understood what I was doing wrong. I had been delivering the same pitch to everyone. The only exception was when I was selling my prints at a special event last year. I didn’t realize it was a pitch at the time. However, I listened to people looking at my prints and adapted my “pitch to align with their interests.” It was time consuming but did generate sales. But I wasn’t sure if that would connect with a broader audience. Williams told attendees how to set up ideal prospects. The pitch is a call to action Authentic Transparent Owning your zone of genius Storytelling Tells why you’re the only choice that matters A pitch slays and plays #sharktank #pitch #sales elainemariefineart.com SCORE.org
