25 tips for successful pitching and networking
summary
Gives concrete rules: know the ask down to numbers like 1 million euros for 25%, pick one specific audience, and stop polishing — launch a shitty pitch to learn. Recommends structures: punchline, problem→solution→value, product/business/team/traction, and timings from 30 seconds to one hour. Practice aloud until comfortable (do 15 quick runs), use push vs pull and improv techniques, set targets such as meet 100 people, five quality contacts, and track honest feedback to improve.
