Elevator Pitch Coaching

Project details

What we need
  • Document outlining feedback on pitch delivery with suggested next steps and/or resources
  • A script for a 1-minute verbal pitch that communicates your Organization's mission, work, and why people should care
Additional details

Looking for support developing a pitch for our network that is dynamic and slightly adjusted for a handful of specific audience (grassroots/youth led orgs, allied organizations, grassroots donors, major donors/foundations, big green organizations, general audiences)

What we have in place
  • We currently have Passion! Smarts!, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have Annual Reports, and other helpful written things!, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $2,397 , allowing us to pay young people (esp LGBTQIA2S+, BIPOC and Frontlines Youth) money!

We really need to work on putting our best foot forward as our profile grows.
