How Stories Happen

The way we write pitches is broken compared to what actually works, all because of one nuanced but critical reality:

We're good at describing our talks. We're bad at describing why they'd BOOK US TO SPEAK.

But isn't that the point?

In this short episode, you'll learn how to re-think your pitches and write better session descriptions to pitch event planners. It'll also be useful for pitching podcast hosts, editors, and any gatekeeper who might platform you.

ABOUT ME, JAY ACUNZO

I work with entrepreneurs, execs, and teams on the journey from competent to resonant. To do that, I help transform your thinking into clear, captivating ideas, speeches, and IP. Stop chasing attention. Become the one others seek.

I’m a former marketing leader at Google and HubSpot and globally touring speaker and author. I've spent 20 years building the exact thought leadership I now help clients create—as a practitioner-peer, not a coach with templates.

Don't market more. Matter more.

Think resonance over reach.

Don't be the best. Be their favorite.
