Short, sweet, and to the point. It's an interesting tactic to highlight the information he is delivering. Each chapter is the length of a good pitch and delivers all the crucial information concisely.

Short. Simple. Successful. It could give more examples but the advice given are precise and enough to understand how to make a great pitch and the course doesn't waste your time.

It is well summarized and detailed in few words! Actually it seems that this course is a pitch also! Thanks. I am thinking that maybe it could have in the summary a checklist to follow including the advice/solutions given within the training steps. This would be easier to follow as take away.

There's some value in this course. I received some valuable information. However, I would have liked more examples and samples of successful pitches. Overall, it wasn't a waste of my time or money. Just not what I was hoping for. Neutral on the recommendation.

This class was a bit boring. Its like that teacher that talks and you can hardly keep your eyes open.

It's a short but sweet online course on getting that elevator pitch correctly. It's a well-organized content for beginners.

Definitely insightful and helpful, giving me confidence that I can nail my next pitch... if I do my homework well of course. I only wish there was more of content and more examples of successful pitches to goods/services.

The tips are great, I just wish some examples are shown on screen on how to execute pitches. I have an idea on what to talk about in a pitch but I don't know how to say it and that's what I was hoping for in a tutorial video.

A great intro into pitches and the core competencies of preparing a solid pitch. Seeing several variations of pitching styles was an excellent inclusion, as it gives you an idea of the structure necessary during the preparation. The only thing I'd like to see improved is to have a more in-depth look into pitching styles and their structures.

It's a very short course that delivers some ideas in how to improve your pitch. However, I wished the instructor went into deep detail using an example pitch to explain how each and everything that he teaches can be implemented to improve that pitch.

This course was kind of a rip off as the content can be instructed in one simple video so not worth the money. I could find this on google by searching related topic.

The course is good. The instructor has a great knowledge and experience. I just needed more examples to connect to stories the instructor is telling. Otherwise, the course has a good content.

This course definitely gave me some great takeaways. I would recommend to someone who has no idea about pitching.
