“Pitches are pivotal to growth for most agencies, businesses and non-profits and so with these partnerships, Win That Pitch is achieving our vision of becoming a one-stop-shop to cater for all aspects of presenting and pitching.
“Despite the importance of pitching to business growth, it can often be the most stressful part of the job for many employees – especially junior and mid-level team members. Not everyone enjoys presenting and for many organisations pitches can vary wildly depending on the experience of the team. That’s why Win That Pitch provides best practice support, training and services to ensure everyone can deliver their best pitch and avoid common mistakes and pressures.”
He added:
“We also know that the best way to win new business is by having a strong pitch team. That is why I am also excited to announce that our online pitch training course and offline workshops have been accredited by the Continued Professional Development Standards Office (CPDSO). Our cost-effective CPD courses are now available to help junior teams and pitch veterans alike improve their skills to present with confidence and pitch to win, every time.”
Amanda Rosewarne, CEO, CPDSO commented:
