Pitch Like A Crocodile Wrestler with Martin Barnes

Episode 57. Pitch Like A Crocodile Wrestler with Martin Barnes

How do you connect when you only have 8 seconds of attention? How do you start your pitch like a sprinter? And what can you learn from a terrible TEDx experience?

Welcome to The Storypowers Podcast, the show about the power of stories, the people who tell them and why you should be doing it too. I’m your host, keynote speaker and storytelling coach, Francisco Mahfuz.

My guest today is Martin Barnes.

Martin is a pitch coach with 20 years experience in London & Beijing working with tech company CEO's, Hollywood A-listers and director boards. His clients include Google, BMW, Chinaccelerator, AngelHack, and the NBA.
