Did you miss Anita's masterclass on Thursday? Don't worry, we've got the highlights!😉 Yesterday, Anita Rojas, Mana Tech mentor and founder/CEO of Oceanita Coaching, shared her insights on "Top 5 Pitching Pitfalls (and how to avoid them)." The session was a resounding success with 40 attendees and a lively Q&A session.💡 Here are some key takeaways from Anita! 🤩Pitching is a performance, make it captivating. ✍️Know your audience. Identify your ideal investors and tailor your pitch to resonate with them. 🎯VVC firms in less than 1% of the deals they come across. Sharpen your pitch before reaching out to potential investors and increase your chances of getting capital! 🚧Be prepared for (and learn from) rejections. 💪Show your work!: Investors need to see the hustle behind the pitch. 🚀Don't just present, inspire! Turn investors into your biggest fans highlighting your passion and potential. A big thanks to Anita for sharing her expertise and to everyone who joined.🙌 Stay tuned for more events and masterclasses! #ManaTech #Fundraising #Entrepreneurs
