Apr 09, 2025
Pitching through email or video is a pain, but it is one of the most essential tools for building a business. And if it feels frustrating to keep sending pitches without hearing back, then there’s definitely a need to shake things up.
This week, Candice Ward, food photographer and business coach for creatives with a background in corporate sales, returns to the podcast to talk about one of the most effective, fun & strategic ways to reach out to brands - video pitching.
Candice shares why video is such a powerful tool for pitching, the key elements of a high-converting video pitch, common mistakes to avoid, and how to create a repeatable video outreach system that saves time but still feels personal.
Candice got an opportunity with a TV channel, and I got a response from Adam Grant -by using video for pitching. There’s no denying how powerful this medium can be to reach brands you want to work with.
There’ll always be someone who does the job cheaper
There’ll always be someone who gives more photos
There’ll always be someone who offers a different rate
Stand out from the rest, differentiate yourself, and become memorable & unignorable - by video pitching.
