Pitching is a craft. This means that it can be learned by practicing. A lot of the most impactfull tips are quite simple yet very hard to implement when you are actually pitching. A great example of this is the tip I give most to the people I coach:

Both very simple staight forward tips. However o so hard to do when your mind is occupied with delivering great content. Now I’ve found a cool simple tool to help you think of both these tips even when I’m not there to remind you:
Get a post it note
Punch a camera sized hole in it
Incorperate the hole in a smily
Put it around your lens.
This will really help you to look into the camera instead of at the screen (where you see your audince). You can use this immediately and will be amazed by its impact.
