The Go Succeed Start team hosts this in-person ‘Pitching Your Business’ masterclass.

Are you a business owner, freelancer, start-up founder or side-hustler looking to attract clients, secure funding, or grow your network through better communication?

If so, this workshop is for you.

Pitching Your Business is a results-focused, hands-on session designed to help you clearly and confidently communicate what you do—so people not only understand your business, they want to work with you.

You’ll learn how to deliver a pitch that creates connection, builds trust, and opens doors—whether you’re in a networking room, sales meeting or investor pitch.

By the end of this workshop, you will:

• Walk away with a sharp, engaging business pitch you can use immediately
• Know how to tailor your message to different audiences and opportunities
• Feel more confident talking about your business in any situation
• Understand how to build trust and spark curiosity from your first sentence
• Gain tools to turn casual conversations into real business leads
