Show notes

Welcome to Pitch Makeover! We're taking the concept of a fashion makeover and applying it to startup pitches. Entrepreneurs pitch, we talk, and then we share what they should keep, delete, and, possibly, more importantly, add to their pitch. Our goal: help #morevoices (women, non-binary people, and men of color), as Rihanna says, shine bright like the diamonds that they are. In season one, we travel from NYC to SF and back, showcasing entrepreneurs working on their startups and sharing their pitch journeys. Are you ready for your pitch makeover?
