8 TAKEAWAYS FROM "PITCHING IN A PANDEMIC"

Today on Agency Under Quarantine, we talked with Jason Parks, Chief Growth Officer at  Barkley, Growth and Search Consultant, Zach Rosenberg and Agency CMO and Growth Consultant, Liz Marks about keeping the new business pipeline open while the rest of the world is shut down. 

8 useful things we learned today and one thing we should have known:

  1. Forward-looking brands are still doing reviews

  2. Look to pick up more project and strategy work

  3. Experiment with format, such as sprint sessions

  4. The absence of travel can make new business less taxing

  5. Rehearse your remote pitching but make room for feedback

  6. Have your IT person on every rehearsal, practice, or call 

  7. Solve, don’t sell

  8. Lead with humanity

  9. Remove the cat from the room before starting the webinar.
