Perfecting Your Internal Pitch

  • Saturday - 11:30 AM - 12:30 PM
  • Olympic Ballroom II
  • #ONA15pitch

We’ve all had cool ideas for projects that probably would’ve been successful if we had just gotten them past our managers. In this how-to session, managers will talk about what they want to hear from a digital staffer making a pitch. We'll also get tips and learn lessons from successful and failed pitches.

Do you have a digital pitch you’re excited to make to your boss? Put it in your back pocket and bring it to ONA. You’ll have the chance to pitch to our panel and audience for instant feedback that might help you succeed. If you’d like to make a pitch, please take a moment to fill out this Google form: http://goo.gl/forms/HZtf8rWTPo

There are a limited number of slots, so reserve yours soon! Pitches will be presented in the order they were received. Each pitch will be limited to 2 minutes max (preferably shorter!); there may be time for additional pitches depending on the number of people who sign up.
