Connect the Dots

In your video pitch to a company, tell them what you’ve done and why that matters to them.

“You need a highly organized operations person. As an event planner, I increased ticket sales 30% through executing detailed plans monthly.”

“You need an SDR who consistently shows up and hits quota. I’ve blogged 60 days in a row, so I get consistency.”

Connect the dots for them to show you are the best candidate.
