Do any of these sound familiar?
01.
Pitches that fall flat
Have you ever been nervous during an important pitch, and bombed? You’re not alone. There are secrets to show up with confidence and connect so you can stand out from your competition.
02.
Branding that blends in
No one ever made an impact by blending into the woodwork. Unless they were a termite, but that’s a different story.
03.
Lack of a strategic vision
Do you want change-makers and forward-thinking clients to be drawn to you? You’ve got to communicate your WHY in a concise, compelling way.
04.
Losing after the shortlist
There’s too much on the line in a competitive pitch to use a sleepy “about our firm” pitch. How much money have you left on the table with that approach?
