Founder & CEO of Win That Pitch, Dean Russell shares:

“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.

“Being able to present with confidence and pitch effectively, is both a science and an art, so Win That Pitch has developed a full range of services to reflect the practical realities of pitching in the real world. We go beyond just sales to help businesses grow their income, and help individuals grow in their careers. We cover every aspect of the pitch process from reviewing briefs, writing proposals, presenting pitches through to helping run pitch processes.

“Our services are purposely designed to help a wide range of organisations; from helping established brands freshen their approach to assisting agencies in taking their pitches to the next level and win bigger clients through to start-ups aiming to win investment and non-profits successfully pitch for grants.

“With access to senior industry specialists, researchers, design support services and even artificial intelligence for pitching, we can now say that we are the only global full-service exclusive pitching agency.

“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 (CPD). Our cost-effective CPD courses are now available to help junior teams and pitch veterans alike improve their skills to pitch to win, every time.”

Amanda Rosewarne, CEO, CPDSO stated “We are delighted to award Win That Pitch with the coveted CPD Standards Provider status and welcome them to our global CPD community. Demonstrating a dedication to excellence in lifelong learning, Win That Pitch have achieved a CPD badge that displays they have been independently verified and recognised as a formal CPD provider.”
