Make your pitch memorable and turn investors into cheerleaders.
Investors hear many pitches and after a while they all start to sound the same. But the ones that grab their attention and stick in their minds? Those are the pitches that get the call back—and the funding.

Learn how to create a pitch that grabs investors’ attention and turns them into your biggest supporters. This workshop will provide you with the tools to craft a pitch that stands out from the crowd.

Create a pitch so memorable that investors can share your story for you.

Dana will take us through some strategies to:
 Make a powerful first impression.
 Craft a pitch message that investors can easily re-pitch to others.
 Create a pitch that grabs investors' attention and shows them right away if you’re a fit.

Turn investors into your biggest cheerleaders by delivering a memorable and compelling pitch.

HOW TO PREPARE:

Bring a notebook to take notes (plant of wisdom gets shared)
Think about one or two challenges you are facing as an entrepreneur or invetsor, to bring up with the group
