Part II. Pitch Video

You’ll record a Pitch Video (no more than 1 minute). In the video, you’ll deliver a pitch related to your business in which you will succinctly address the following four areas:

1) Identify your business name and exactly what your product or service is.

2) Describe what sets you apart from similar companies. Include your USP.

3) Discuss early traction and/or facets of your business that could make it catch on quickly (those that would be of interest to potential investors).

4) Make a financial ask- state the amount of money you’re asking for, what you’ll use it for, and what you are willing to give up in return (i.e. the percentage or stake in the business). Be sure to use one of the valuation methods discussed in this course so that the math here makes sense.

Again, your completed Assignment 3 Template and Pitch video are due by Sunday midnight of Week 10 and should be uploaded to Blackboard. Reach out to your professor with any questions and good luck.

Note: If you would like to tailor this assignment to better match your current business goals and position, please contact your professor to discuss.
