Investor Pitch Speaking & Presentation Skills.
Our feedback & coaching leads to 5X more “Yeses!”

Speaking skills • Lighting setup • Sound quality • Body language • Visual presence
.

Investors turn away 98% of entrepreneurs…

…largely due to poor delivery.

Maybe it’s the way they speak, or bad lighting, poor sound quality, stiff body language, or inadequate visuals. Whatever it is, it signals a lack of attention to details.

So, um… could this be happening to you?

Well yeah, probably. Because unless you’re a trained speaker (meaning no more “ums” for starters!) and your presentation setup is optimized, you undermine your chance of hearing “yes!”

 

 

 

After all your effort,
why present with an untrained voice???

 

We’ve coached hundreds of entrepreneurs & founders to success!

  • Gauge the optimal pacing for your pitch, so you never rush your audience, nor drag them.
  • Soften accents with 3 speaking techniques.
  • Maintain consistent energy.
  • Recover from mistakes (hint: so your audience never knows).
