Your demo day pitch, ready before the day.
Demo day is the one stage every founder in a program walks onto, and the one most of them rehearse alone in a hotel room the night before. Two ways to change that.
With your cohort
Your program books one day for the whole cohort, at your building, in the weeks before demo day. Four modules, and the rest of the day is practice: every founder pitches three times, the first and last round on film. The founders leave with sixty seconds that work and a method they have already used.
On your own
If your program has no pitch day, or demo day is three weeks away and you want more, book hours one-to-one. Hour one takes the pitch apart. Hour two rebuilds it and tests it under pressure. Hour three is on the day itself: we come to where you pitch, watch you do it live, and tell you the truth over coffee.
One-to-one is €199 per hour excl. VAT, no minimum, invoiced afterwards.
What a demo day pitch needs
One word the room still has the next morning. An ask that is a sentence and not a paragraph. A first ten seconds that earns the next fifty. And a body that does not apologize for being on stage. The slides are the least of it, and the sixty seconds without them is the version that survives the corridor afterwards.
About demo day coaching.
How many hours do I need before demo day?
Most founders take three: one to take the pitch apart, one to rebuild and test it, and one on the day itself. You buy the hours you need and stop when the pitch is ready.
Can you come to the demo day?
Yes, that is hour three. We come to where you are pitching, watch it live and tell you what we saw. Travel is charged at cost, and the entry fee for the event, if there is one, is yours.
Do you work on the deck too?
We work on the sixty seconds first, because that is what the room remembers and what the corridor afterwards runs on. A pitch that works without slides works better with them, and once the minute stands the deck follows it.
What if my program wants this for the whole cohort?
Then the in-house training is the fit: one day, up to fifteen founders, at your building. Ask your program manager to plan a quick call with us.
