🤑 Pitch competitions aren’t about winning $$ They're about winning evangelists. I’ve gone to many pitch competitions over the years, including Techstars' inaugural Demo Day in NYC (2011?) and Capital Factory’s event last night (congrats GearSwap.Shop, Electric Aviation, and The HIVE Maternal Wellness Center!). The most impactful pitches get this right: 📖 Storytelling. Craft a narrative that sticks – stories resonate, numbers fade. 🔊 Speak, don't read. Avoid the #1 mistake that founders make – too much copy. Captivate your audience (use storytelling), minimize the copy on your slides. BIG FONT for crucial details. 🎤 Assume your mic isn't working (it probably isn’t). Be loud so that the people in the back can hear you. Good pitches are heard, not just seen. 🎭 Add theater. Gesture, engage with the audience, respond to individual reactions. Add tone; monotones are a death blow when you’re presenting. Speak sloooooowly. 💡 Address key questions. Tackle the top 2-3 questions upfront. This leaves room for questions you may not have thought of. 🌐 Evangelists over dollars. Ultimately, pitch competitions are about winning evangelists, not just dollars :) #PitchPerfect #StartupSuccess #marketingtips #startuptips

Founder, Managing Partner of JSB Business Solutions Group. Founder, Team New Horizons | Small Business Architect | Organizational Development & Accountability | Acquire & Retain More Clients
I share because I learned a lot through trial and error. I didn't cut my entrepreneurial teeth in the supportive environments. I developed a chip on my shoulder, combined with a sheathed baseline level of fury, and a limiting belief that business is necessarily hard. Keeping that energy was good for overcoming battles and challenges. But it can also stunt your ability to think critically and survey the entire chess board. Early on I was so focused on the opposition, I didn't spend enough time focused on the things that really mattered, and I wasn't very coachable. We established the BizConnect Mixer to help you cut your learning curve. We believe in two principles: 1. Living a Successful Life is a Long-Term Game. Your success and happiness depend on finding the space to explore and cultivate your gifts, the things you’re good at, and give you energy. And being willing to double down on those things absent an immediate reward. 2. Surround Yourself with Excellence. Place yourself in spaces where others are excelling in your passions. Being willing to learn from people, and gaining insights into the frameworks and skills that serve them will sharpen you. Start your week right at the BizConnect Mixer 🎉 with the Team New Horizons networking group on Tuesdays at 6:45 PM sharp in downtown Detroit. Join us for food and fellowship as we work to empower dedicated entrepreneurs to level up in 2024. We assemble a dynamic group of committed, driven entrepreneurs and small business owners to foster collaboration, growth, and success. We share resources, exchange ideas, and strategize for mutual success. Click the link below for details 👇
