Episode notes
Ring's Shark Tank Failure
- Jamie Siminoff initially failed his Shark Tank pitch for Ring, despite its potential.
- He later secured investments from Shaq and Richard Branson, proving the importance of a good pitch.
First Impression Importance
- Prepare your first impression as much as your pitch, as people quickly judge trustworthiness and ideas.
- Avoid accidental question inflections, especially with names or numbers, as they undermine confidence.
Vocal Power and Downward Inflection
- Use a downward inflection for authority; practice stating your name, numbers, and challenging questions.
- This projects confidence and prevents others from questioning your value.
