what to say when pitching a collab
Manage episode 483825892 series 3601278
Hey, hey, fab inbox friends! Liz Wilcox here, bringing all the hype and zero awkward corporate vibes to Episode 138 of The Email Sound Booth. If the word "pitch" makes you sweat more than a summer in Florida, this episode is gonna be your new BFF. I'm diving into the art of pitching collaborations — minus the stuffy scripts and cringey templates. Trust me, if I can pitch Walmart and survive (spoiler: I did), you're absolutely going to rock your next collab ask.
Episode Highlights- Pitch Panic? Not Here: Why being informal (even if you’re emailing your dream collab or, heck, Walmart) is your superpower. Channel that "of course you wanna work with me" attitude.
- Bare Minimum, Big Results: Stop overthinking! Liz breaks down her own collab pitch to Kennedy from Email Marketing Heroes, showing exactly how chill and low-lift your ask can (and should) be.
- What’s In It for Them: Easy peasy—keep your pitch focused, friendly, and don’t forget to say what’s in it for their biz, not just yours.
- Real Example Alert: Liz reads her actual pitch—complete with “yo yo yo, my email king” energy—to show you real doesn’t mean unprofessional.
- Collaboration Challenge Hype: Get ready! Liz is dropping details on the upcoming Networking for Collabs List Building Challenge happening June 2-4th, and it’s only $33 to jump in.
So there you have it, inbox fam — next time you slide into someone’s DMs about a collab, keep it real, keep it you, and keep it simple. Wanna up your collab game and explode your list at the same time? Snag your spot on the waitlist for our June collab challenge (link in the show notes) — save ya seat and your lunch money. ✨
Stay spicy, send better pitches, and I’ll see you next episode! 🚀
