Pitch practice is on again!
We’re giving you, the upcoming new startups of Perth, a chance to practice your pitch in front of the non-intimidating and supportive Morning Startup audience.
**The Startups**
We currently have the following startups practicing their three minute pitch:
* **Smart Dealer Poker** (Phillipp Correia)
The thrill of live poker without the hassle of being a poker dealer.
* **EnjoyYourMine** (Hazel Duffy)
Wellness platform for FIFO workers
* **SpaceSync** (François Loose)
Short-term retail leasing made easy
* **DirectYourWay** (Vitold Voytekunas)
Instant access to available parking spaces
* **Legacy Technologies** (Joshua Ng)
Revolutionising Death Care with spatial computing
* **Edible Cutlery** (Abhinav Bijavara Nagaraj)
Cutlery that’s not just sustainable but deliciously edible
**Register to pitch**
If you’re interested in pitching, email us ASAP at [[email protected]](http://mailto:[email protected]/) or message us on meetup.com. Include your **contact details** and a short **description of your startup** and we’ll be in touch!
You must be available to pitch *in person* at Riff (45 St Georges Tce, Perth) between 7:30 am and 9:00 am on Wednesday April 10th.
*Note: We’re looking for innovative, early-stage startups or ideas. Do not apply to pitch a traditional service/business such as a business/life coach, marketing agency, accounting firm etc.*
**The plan**
Each startup will get exactly three minutes to pitch (they’ll be clapped out at the three minute mark), followed by a couple of minutes of questions and feedback from the audience.
**Only three minutes? WTF?!**
Yeah, that’s right. You’ll need a clear, succinct pitch that clearly communicates who your customers are, the problem your solving, your unique advantage, and/or anything else that communicates your startup’s value — all in under three minutes. It’s totally doable.
This also allows more time for insightful questions and feedback (the useful stuff!), and gives more startups the opportunity to have a go!
Here’s [a handy one-page pitch tool](https://seedproof.com/seedpitch/) to help you gain clarity on your messaging, and who can forget this awesome presentation from Perth’s own Josephine Muir on [how to pitch like royalty](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZNm3PWocUjw)! You might also like to check out [Dave and Scott’s pitching fundamentals](https://www.youtube.com/live/b0PAiMSGZ-I?si=HctRyhtLAV9TB_pf&t=1084).
