On my last pitch I got feedback that I was passionate about my topic but it was important to touch on the issues that may happen. I was told that wearing a Florida Athletics polo was a good thing to do because it added credibility that I am close to the opportunity and it is something that would impact me. This would show that I have a lot invested in this. I think that I was more fluent with my speech and had fewer mix ups in what I am saying which shows that I am more prepared and confident in what I am telling my audience.
In this elevator pitch I focused on more of the problems that might occur if this opportunity gets passed. A lot of the feedback I have received throughout the semester was that there would be many problems within the athletic departments if college athletes were paid. I touched on how recruiting would be impacted. Teams that are at the top of college sports often get the best players. They offer them better opportunities to get on a bigger stage and further their careers in their respective sports. Adding he incentive to get paid may bring players to where they have the best marketing opportunities. A star recruit may also go to another place where they can be the star of the show and stand out. I feel that it was important to touch on these issues as I move along with this opportunity. I also felt more comfortable in the camera and more confident talking about the topic and being more prepared.
Hi Tyler! I think you had a very professional and direct elevator pitch. You sound very passionate about what you are proposing to your potential clients. I think that with practice, you have been able to improve on your public speaking skills, even if your audience is a camera lens at the moment. All in all, it was a well-spoken pitch!
ReplyDeleteHi Tyler,
ReplyDeleteI also agree with what Zackary said because I thought that your professionalism and passion has greatly improved in your pitch over time. With this improvement, I think it makes your pitch much more persuasive and makes your audience intrigued by what you have to say. Not only did you do a good job of composing yourself throughout the presentation, but you also positioned yourself with a great background that helps you even further establish yourself as the student-athlete that is advocating for changes within the NCAA.
Hi Tyler,
ReplyDeleteI think this was your best elevator pitch yet. I think it was smart of you to wear your baseball polo, and also stand in front of the Florida Gator logo. It is obvious each time you give your elevator pitch that you are extremely passionate about this issue, and that you want to see a change, even if it is after you graduate. I like how you stayed calm and composed, without moving around too much to where it became distracting. Your delivery was great, and you appeared to be very well prepared.
Hey, Tyler! I really enjoyed the way you spoke in your last and final elevator pitch! To me, you seemed like a politician who was informed about his topic. Since your business idea involves sports and athletes, you dressed appropriately for the pitch and picked a great place to film it. My only critique would be to speak a little slower, because sometimes it takes the viewer a bit to let the info process.
