🔥 Your Pitch is Losing Investors in the First 5 Seconds—Here’s How to Fix It!

 

Most founders waste the most critical part of their pitch—the opening. Investors remember the first and last things you say. But instead of making an impact, most founders start with:

âś… Why traditional intros weaken your pitch.

âś… How to hook your audience from the first second.

âś… The power of silence before you speak.

âś… A real-world comparison of bad vs. great pitch openings.
