Your own presentation has the old school stuff. It is better to make your presentation looks better by applying the same which you are advising others.

The content consists only of very basic information that is generic and publicly available online. The design is very dated and there was little to no gain from this brief course.

I liked the course, but feel it would benefit from a revision (taking the Agile approach in practice). Suggestions: 1. More images/charts could be used. 2. Back-up examples with visuals, links, etc. 3. The narrator stumbles a couple of times when speaking. When talking face to face it would be hardly noticeable, but when audio is the chief medium for communication it stands out. Maybe record a new version? 4. Sometimes sounds like the narrator is reading the content, particularly noticeable early on. Did you achieve your goal? At the end of the course I wanted more, and added the paid course to my wishlist. I won't buy at $55, but I probably will purchase the course when there is a sale. Thanks

Agile Pitching is new to me. I found it freeing because I am reminded that as an entrepreneur, I may have a great idea or service or product. But I need to take time to listen in order to discover what my client or investor really wants. Rather than pushing my pitch, Agile Pitching Is about creating conversations and will more likely get us to our mutual win-win goals faster.
