THE ART
OF PITCHING

Unlock Your Startup's Potential Harnessing the Power of Storytelling Techniques

OUR BELIEF

Are you a startup aiming to bring meaningful innovations to the way people do and behave?

To be a startup means you are struggling to captivate investors and secure funding for your startup. It means you are focused on delivering compelling and persuasive pitches that leave a lasting impression. To be a startup means you want to attract investors and early-stage customers.

And Pitching speech is on of the most common tools to achieve those goals. We understand the challenges you encounter when pitching your ideas. The main challenges include:

  • Attracting and maintaining the attention of your audience
    (including investors and customers alike)
  • Engaging them emotionally
  • Delivering a convincing message to them

But guess what? TV-series creators face the same challenges!
They too struggle with:

  • Attracting and maintaining audience attention
  • Creating emotional connections
  • Delivering a compelling message (often reserved for the final episode)

In the current HBO era, where people are captivated by TV-series, it's evident that TV-series creators have mastered the art of engaging their audience. While some startups may remain in the shadows, we cannot ignore the tremendous success of TV-series creators. So, why not learn from their storytelling techniques to craft our own Art of Pitching?

Approach

In today's world, viewers form deep emotional connections with their beloved TV characters, such as those from "Breaking Bad", "House of Cards" and "Billions." These characters become role models, inspiring actions in the real world.

But this connection doesn't happen by default. Few people realize that TV series creators meticulously define their characters' traits, desires, motivations, and purpose before they even appear on the first page. When viewers start watching a series, they seek answers to these questions, determining whether the character is worth empathizing with and rooting for. Essentially, viewers search for a center of goodness in the story. Likewise, when creating a startup and building a brand, it's crucial to demonstrate that your business isn't solely focused on maximizing profits. It's about striving to improve the world and becoming a force for good.
