The Work Smarter Guide to Pitching : The Playbook for Painless Persuasion

We all pitch all the time - our ideas, vision, products and services. Honing this skill can not only transform your life at work, but it can also help you bring people around to your way of seeing the world, build your confidence and allow you to progress and cooperate with others in new and unforeseen ways. This book gives you clear, concise, actionable advice on how to pitch in a way that gets you what you want. Walking you through pre-pitch preparation, identifying and leveraging different personality types, getting on the same wavelength, the rehearsal process and, of course, the intricacies of the pitch itself, this invaluable guide will help you become pitch perfect. The Work Smarter series:Our books provide shortcuts, tips and life-hacks for the development of essential business skills. The books bring together accomplished industry experts who have learned their trades at the coalface. They teach the skills ambitious businesspeople need in order to tip the playing field in their favour. It is the pirate equivalent of business advice; the antidote to conventional wisdom; 'smarter' practice over 'best practice'.
