ABOUT SHELBY STANGER
…AND WHY I’M TEACHING THIS CLASS
I’ve spent the past 20 years pitching wild ideas, everything from magazine stories to podcasts to brand partnerships. I’ve also been pitched thousands of times. I’ve been told “no” plenty of times, said “yes” to ideas that caught my attention. I’ve also landed dream collaborations with brands like REI Co-op Vans, Jesse Itzler’s Build Your Life Resume Radio, and Lufthansa.
This class is about teaching you what works, what doesn’t, and how to pitch your next big idea with heart and confidence as well as what to do when you are told NO (sometimes a no just means later).
AI is here and the world may feel uncertain, but nothing replaces a great pitch written from your own big brain and voice.
