9 Killer Interview Tactics for Pitching YOU and Your Business!

Does this describe you? You’re an expert, author, speaker, CEO, showbiz pro, creative-entrepreneur, speaker – who charges a fee for providing a product, service, content or consultation in a particular industry or field?

Someone with a good deal of firsthand knowledge, experience, training, or experience in a particular field or activity?

If it is, then you need to get the word out! By using media, you get to tell the world who you are, what you’re selling and what problem your business, product or service solves for the people that want to buy from you! 

What this means to you is, you’ve got to learn how to PITCH IT TO PROMOTE IT so you can TELL IT TO SELL IT!

MURPHY'S LAW: In 2011, media is "Anyone, or anything that has the ability to take your message and move it forward."

To get 'celebritized' and start using media so you can jump on the PITCHING and PROMOTING bandwagon, you need to begin by analyzing and breaking down exactly it is that you have to offer – so you can create and deliver a KILLER PITCH for it. A killer pitch is Media Gold!

It will make the difference between – as Mark Twain so famously said, “The lightening bug and the light.” 

Here are 9 INTERVIEW TACTICS! For Creating and Delivering A Killer Pitch…

1.              Define your expertise in simple language. Break it down.

2.              Create 2 or 3 concise messages that best describes your skill set.

3.              Create a 10sec and 20 sec pitch that tells your story.

4.              Prepare in advance and know what you’re going to talk about.

6.              Stay on topic and stay focused. Be specific.

7.              Give details and know when they’re needed: places, names and dates.

8.              Connect your pitch to a story or trend in the headlines. This makes your expertise timely, newsworthy and something people are already thinking about.

9.              Relax, enjoy and take your time and have fun.  You’re the star of the ME SHOW starring YOU!
