Module 8 · The Pitch Structure — before you rehearse

Why this video

The shape listeners expect (problem, solution, market, competition, team, numbers, ask — the same seven beats), why a story lands before a number does, and how to practise a one-minute, a five-minute and a ten-minute version of the same pitch. Jacob has all three.

What to watch for

  • Count the beats as they go by — they're the seven on your pitch page.
  • Story first, then numbers. Then stop talking and ask.
