Pitching is at the heart of almost all business, but social pitching is a little different, as it explains what we do in a more elegant and effortless way. In this week’s ’15 Minutes To Action’, Nick talks you through how to create the social pitch that will open doors and build relationships for your business, and why listening might be the crucial component you’re missing.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
The different levels of pitching, and what they are designed for are:
The ‘Change The World” pitch - The “I have a dream” pitch
Investor Pitch - Centred around money, time and resources
Partnership Pitches - To build more products, develop brands, and bring in distributors
Customer Pitches - Sales pitches or promotional pitches
Networking Pitches - Building rapport and developing your network, incorporating the Social Pitch
The social pitch is generally a 30-45 second pitch that’s largely unplanned, in a social setting, describing the thing that you do, and designed to hook the right person in, so that they’ll want to know more about you.
Listen first, and then design your pitch around what you’ve heard, You can alter and add nuance to your social pitch by learning a little about the person first. This is called the “listening window”
Closing your social pitch on your ambitions for the future, and your vision for what’s ahead, mark out the impact that you want to make in the world and on the world.
BEST MOMENTS
‘It’s what you say in a social setting, given the opportunity to mention what you do’
‘If someone is distracted, you’re not going to get the best outcome’
‘Always end with a bigger vision - a bigger mission’
‘We don’t apologise for being awesome. You’ve got to step into your identity if you want to be successful'

I’m passionate about personal and professional development - showing up and being the best version of myself ... every day.
