The words out
Pitch Secrets, 60 minutes of pure pitch-winning content, is back due to popular demand in Cape Town and Johannesburg. “If you don’t have an exceptional batting average,” says Sid, “you’re probably dropping the ball on key attributes that influence whether you win or lose the pitch.”
Pitching on new business has long been a sensitive issue in the industry, often done at great cost (usually with no compensation) insufficient information and unrealistic deadlines. “But that does not matter,” says Sid, “winning a pitch is not only about money, information or time – or the hundreds of other myths that abound.”
Sid has pitched on everything from FMCG to Government. Together with extensive research and international training, he began to develop an ‘eye’ for what wins the pitch and what does not. “Furthermore, when I began to train planners in simulated pitch environments, I was able to test my hypotheses,” states Sid, “and the results are consistent. “
“In the same way that babies find symmetrical people more attractive, clients choose bidders who show more ‘pitch clarity’,” says Sid. “It works, and I will show you how.“

As space is limited to 75 seats in each venue, booking is essential (previous tours sold out).
