What the day is.
Up to twelve founders from different startups, one room in Amsterdam, four modules. The rest of the day you practice: you pitch sixty seconds before we teach anything, again before lunch, and once more at the end, with the room cheering you on. The first and the last round are on film.
In Amsterdam, at a location we host, with lunch and drinks included. There is no fixed calendar: you sign up to the list, and once the room is filling up we propose dates that work for the group. Nothing is paid until your date is set.
Part of a program? Look at the in-house training instead.
About the open training.
What does pitch training cost in Amsterdam?
A seat in the Avocado Pitch open training is €750 excl. VAT, as a founding price. One-to-one coaching is €199 per hour excl. VAT, with no minimum. An in-house training for a program or a team is quoted in a short call, because the group size and the location differ every time.
How long is the training?
One day, from 09:00 to 18:00, with four modules: Nerve, Story, Delivery and The Room. The rest of the day you practice: you pitch sixty seconds before we teach anything, again before lunch, and once more at the end. The first and the last round are filmed, so you can look back on the difference.
Is the training in English or Dutch?
The training is in English, because most rooms in Amsterdam have founders from several countries. The trainers are Dutch and switch to Dutch for a one-to-one session or an in-house day for a Dutch team when that suits the group better.
Do I need slides?
No. The whole day is built around a sixty-second pitch without slides. The investor you meet in a corridor has no screen, and a pitch that works without slides works even better with them.
