In this spirited and interactive lecture, Butterfield will introduce and help you practice key skills that will supercharge your power to persuade during the development process (This is not a how to market your game workshop). *The Powerbite - a nifty short form template to answer crucial questions like: o Tell me about your game/project o Why should I support/invest in it? o What's the latest? *The Aspirational Story - future casting to capture the imagination of your key audiences; i.e., funders, publishers, partners and those you want to recruit etc. *The Meeting Prep - a powerful preparation template that will get you ready for the high stakes pitch or milestone meeting *Driving the Message - question and message techniques to keep you and your audience in the game. |
