Story Presentations Tips for Startup Founders. This Spring, we had big plans for the 7 founders of the 2020 Consumer Packaged Goods SKU Accelerator to present at the SKU Showcase, Austin, TX. But COVID19 changed all that as it did for everyone. No worries though. The founders, SKU Team and us mentors pivoted without skipping a beat and kept the program going so the teams could finish out the program in flying colors. Hence, I spent the last few weeks getting these CPG entrepreneurs ready to give their Startup Pitch on camera instead of a live audience. In this video I share the final tips I gave the founders as they head into the homestretch of the program with a specific focus on practicing and preparing to given their presentation to a digital audience of thousands. The good thing is these tips apply for offline and online storytelling, startup sales pitches, fund raising, and a host of other founder needs. Plus events such as this are good fodder for startup stories and founder storytelling.
