Pitching Clinic - Crafting Business Pitches

Have you ever struggled to explain what you do to a stranger? Has it been ages since you even thought about how to explain your business to new customers? Does no one ask more questions when you talk about the services you offer? If you answered yes to any of these questions, make plans to join us for our upcoming Pitching Clinic: Strategies for Crafting Your Best Business Pitch.

During this seminar, we will go over how to successfully craft business pitches that will let you strike out your competition. We will focus on how to craft your initial "elevator speech" and will actively go through exercises to start crafting your pitch. Participants will also be given the opportunity to test out their pitch on other attendees.

Due to the interactive nature of this seminar, seats are limited. Make sure to reserve your spot early. The cost for this seminar is $25*. EDC Members will receive a special promo code waiving this charge.  *No refunds will be issued for no shows or early cancellations.

Wednesday, August 30, 2017 9:00 AM thru 10:30 AM
