WELCOME TO “PITCH VAULT”
“There are two ways to persuade people. The first is by using conventional rhetoric, which is what most executives are trained in. That’s not good enough, because people are not inspired to act by reason alone. The other way to persuade people ˆ and ultimately a much more powerful way is by uniting an idea with an emotion. The best way to do that is by telling a compelling story” B. Fryer, Snr Editor at Harvard Business Review
For many years, we have been providing presentation, sales and bid training, bid coaching for talented, creative individuals and companies some large and small. We like to win and we also have been out there “pitching” our story, our skills and knowledge. This has given us a unique and strategic advantage; we know what works ~ we use it everyday. What is in the vault? Lots of how to information, and examples by video

5 Keys for managing fear and anxietyClient Testimonials
In over 20 years of selling architectural services I have worked with several presentation consultants – none as deeply talented and effective as Geoffrey Lane. We will never know if we could have won without Geoffrey – but we know that with him we did.
And we will ask Geoffrey to be part of our preparation team for our next “mission critical” interview.
The Story: My firm had interviewed several times with a prospective client. We repeatedly made their shortlists but never won in the final interviews. This time the pursuit was for two projects, with interviews back to back over two days. A very grueling set up – compounded by the fact that our proposed teams for the two projects contained different firms and people with only a few individuals overlapping between the two presentations and over 15 to 20 people to prepare and choreograph. Through two days of intensive work, Geoffrey pulled the disparate groups together and created a cohesive, articulate winning team.
The difference in working with Geoffrey is he was able to establish a deep bond with each participant that created implicit trust, harnessing our energy and willingness to take his direction and counsel. Most importantly, he was able to emotionally transform us to fully speak from our hearts in a way that showed our strongest passions and connected with each person on the selection committee.
