Your value offer. Many of <em>pitch<\/em> start with information about the client, things with little impact. Do it the other way around. Make a difference at the start. Captivate.<\/p>\n<p>The results of studies carried out are interesting. But what is their impact? Make your results news.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h4><strong><u>Where to introduce your startup?<\/u><\/strong><\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The introduction of <em>startup<\/em> or client should be done strategically. The best pitches Toddi Gutner remembers were those where the introduction of the client was made at the end of the first paragraph, or even near the end of the first paragraph. <em>pitch<\/em>.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h4><strong><u>How long should <em>pitch<\/em>?<\/u><\/strong><\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The shorter the letter, the better. Gutner says that if your letter can't tell your story in 50 words or less, it will lose the interest of its recipient, the journalist.  Why 50 words? It's a guideline, but your <em>pitch<\/em> should not exceed one page. A good communications professional should be able to synthesize relevant information in a limited amount of space.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h4><strong><u>What should you add?<\/u><\/strong><\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>It's important to emphasize that less is more, but don't forget to give the journalist a story to pursue, and to get their bearings. Give them relevant and interesting information.  Don't forget the importance of visuals. If possible, get a second pair of eyes to help you with the visuals, editing and formatting so that you can make your story more interesting. <em>pitch<\/em> in a highly readable document.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.prdaily.com\/Main\/Articles\/9568.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Source<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Toddi Gutner, conceituada jornalista com mais de 20 anos de experi\u00eancia em coberturas a mercados financeiros e de neg\u00f3cios na Forbes, Bussiness Week e no The Wall Street Journal,\u00a0atual colunista para o MSN Small Bussiness e Thomson Reuters, e senior strategist na BlissPR, d\u00e1-nos algumas pistas para fazer um pitch quase perfeito.
