The Art of Pitching

Or How I Learned to Stop Worrying & Love PowerPoint

In this course all about pitching, presenting, and building the perfect deck, Heather utilizes her original “Stoplight Check-in” to  give entrepreneurs the tools to analyze their audience, prepare their goals, & craft their deck to maximize outcomes.

Building with the power of storytelling principles, Heather uses “The Beyonc Principle” to illustrate & drive home key insights from psychology & neuroscience to command the stage, capitvate your audience, and maximize memory retention. You’ll learn to balance attention, keep things clear, and show respect for your audience.

You’ll then round out the course with a guide to Presentation Deck construction; master design details about formatting, fonts, iconography, imagery, and margins. With a special surprise cameo from Alfred Hitchcock, you’ll learn how film greats put these design principles into action to affect your emotions and create iconic moments. You’ll use all of this & more to tell your story & unlock the door of your future success.

With ‘The Art of Pitching’, you’ll learn:

how Steve Jobs became a master communicator,

how to command a stage like Beyoncé,

and how to build a deck worthy of the star that you are!

Why Design Matters

And How to Make It Work For You

Entrepreneurs are always so busy; why should they care about good design? Why shouldn’t they just hire a random designer on Fiverr to churn out a quick & dirty logo?

In “Why Design Matters“, Heather answers precisely those questions, starting out by explaining her own unusual background & the ways design made the improbable possible. Whether it was getting the US Army Corps of Engineers as a partner in her first venture at only 7-years-old, or running a successful multi-million-dollar boycott against one of the world’s largest media companies in the world at 16. Time & again, it was design that opened the door.

We’ve all heard the phrase, “Dress for the job you want, not the job you have.” The same principle holds true for entrepreneurs. Your brand is your company’s clothing. Make sure you look like you belong in your market by creating an impactful, meaningful brand.

In this course, Heather will teach you how to use your business model as the blueprint for a meaningful brand, introduce you to our original take on the Brand Model Canvas, and walk you through how to create a Uniquely Meaningful Brand. You’ll then get a quick introduction to the Building Blocks of Good Design, and a crash course on the Language of Color illustrated by familiar brands we all know & love. At the end of this course, you’ll be well on your way to crafting your own fully realized brand.

With ‘Why Design Matters’, you’ll learn:

how to tell a visual story of success,

how to craft a meaningful brand,

and how to design your future.
