"Working with Melissa...was instrumental in pulling out the true story of why I started my business...I was able to paint the picture in their minds of how my company is solving real problems. This all culminated in placing 2nd in a business competition as well as having several angel investors interested in funding my business!"

Melissa is an amazing pitch coach! She helped us develop a pitch that was compelling and relatable to our audience, while providing the information necessary to get an overview of our business within the 99- second time frame. She was very encouraging, helpful and professional throughout the process. We ended up winning our pitch competition in large part due to her. 10/10 would recommend her services. Thanks again Melissa!

Melissa was unbelievably impactful as my pitch coach. She was able to take the meager nuggets that I brought to the table and help me construct a powerful narrative around my business that led to me not only win the pitch competition that we prepped for together, but also be invited to a number of other opportunities. I credit Melissa for bringing out the best of what we have to offer and really helping us to shine!
