Library of over 250 successful pitchesĀ
This is a goldmine. (Except, unlike gold, this beauty is completely free)
Pitching can be the worst. You want it to be relevant and personable, but you donāt want to spent a whole hours over a couple sentences⦠just to hear crickets back (guilty).
Hereās a big ol database of successful pitches. Itās completely free to use (and you can submit your own too!)
Whatās that saying?Ā
āGood artists copy, great artists stealā -Ā Steve Jobs
āLesser artists borrow, great artists stealā - Pablo Picasso
āImmature poets imitate, mature poets stealā - TS Elliot
⦠damn these guys just kept straight up stealing each others quotes lolĀ
Get stealing! Check it out
