Founders, CEOs and executives need to tell their story and be believable. Yet, most struggle to tell their story in a brief, powerful way. They lose deals and investors!

Investors need to understand and believe you. If they don't, the chance of funding is zero. Don't let that happen to you!

Come and learn the art of making a "Power Pitch" to investors:

1. How to make an elevator pitch. Say what you do in 30 to 50 seconds, max. We will do it in the class.

2. What investors are looking for in a start up. (It's not what you think!).

3. How to blend the "story" and the "facts" into a brief, powerful story. You will get a template to follow.

4. What to include in your slide deck. What to leave out.

5. "Less is more!" How to get to the point quickly and be clear.

6. The 2 types of pitch decks: The brochure / info deck and the deck for overhead slides.

7. Intro to using "body language" in your presentations. This is the single most important element to being influential to anyone.

Bring your pitch deck. Startups will pitch and get suggestions to make it stronger. You will make big improvements!

This workshop has been given all over Silicon Valley, in Europe, Korea and Beijing. Dozens of Founders have gone on to raise money and make corporate sales as well.

This is a fun, powerful workshop. Be prepared to engage!
