EPISODE SUMMARY
My guest is Kevin Sandlin, author and founder of Pitch Practice located in one of the country’s fourth largest entrepreneurial tech centers in Atlanta, Georgia. I caught up with Kevin during his regular Friday Pitch Practice sessions that he offers for free to entrepreneurs. His invitation sparked our follow-up conversation that make for an inspired lesson in the craft of a pitch after hosting nearly 3000 of them over the last 5-years… let’s get started.
EPISODE NOTES
We learned from Kevin the fundamental building blocks of the pitch, the importance of pitching early to get feedback and the understanding that a start-up is actually not a business but an opportunity to build a machine with a repeatable process and predictable results with your customers.
