"Today I joined a one-day seminar on pitching and sales held by Andreas. Although we (or better: he) had to switch last minute from physical to virtual meeting due to Corona, he did a really excellent job! He motivated all participants to stay interactive although neither seeing each other nor knowing each other and although having had already 3 very exhaustive training days, and to develop their pitches in a very professional way. People who know me know that I am quite critical and that I have very high expectations... I can highly recommend Andreas as coach or trainer. You will definitely learn a lot! In a very positive manner!"

"He managed to provide the content in a very interactive way with a good balance of theoretical knowledge as well as immediate “hands on” exercise and reflection to be done by attendees. What I liked the most is Andreas’ ability to engage people for the topics, to create a very dynamic and pretty much creative and supportive atmosphere. He is very passionate about what he does/ teaches which made the whole training very authentic and inspirational to me. I can highly recommend Andreas as trainer/ coach- you will definitely not regret the choice!"

"An investors’ pitch training must keep attendees engaged and motivated, with the feeling that what is being presented is really helpful. Andreas managed to bring this magic during last week training, when I had the privilege to attend online. Andreas’ dynamic and interactive style, together with an appealing multimedia content made the training engaging and most efficient. I highly recommend taking part in one of Andreas’ pitch training workshops."

"WTF? Wow, that was fun! I could fully relate to this motto after another excellent workshop with Andreas Ott. I highly recommend to participate in his workshops if you get the chance: he has a lot of experience and expertise and doesn't just talk about theories. It was truly inspiring!"

"Ich habe viele Anregungen mitgenommen, die ich in Zukunft umsetzen möchte bzw. mit meinem Mitgründer besprechen. Mir hat insbesondere gefallen, dass der Workshop abwechslungsreich, individuell und interaktiv war und Du die Inhalte super und kompetent vermittelt hast. Daher kann ich jetzt gar nicht so ein einzelnes Thema hervorheben, ziehe aber in Summe ein sehr positives Fazit."

"For me personally, the topic I felt really important was the way of pitching. The feed bac I received was very good and to change myself not to speak with a monotone but show some variations, when necessary."

"Dein Workshop hat mir sehr gut gefallen. Ich fand deine Hinführung zum Thema Story sehr gut, die reduzierte Anwendungsmap, inkl. CTA und die Übungen dazu. Gut gelungene Kombination und top Qualität! Ich denke der Rest ist dann sehr individuell und Präsentation & Pitching ja auch. Bei den verschiedenen Videos könntest du noch auf den Bezug zu Kundenpersona einfließen lassen, würde da wohl gut passen. Auf jeden Fall einer der interessantesten Workshops für mich bislang."

"Du bist wirklich der best organisierteste Coach. Wir konnten auch sehr viel aus deiner Arbeit mitnehmen. Was Social Media, die Vernetzung mit den Teilnehmern, Storytelling und die gesamte Organisation angeht. Wir werden uns nun auch noch das ein oder andere Equipment besorgen, um noch besser vorbereitet zu sein."

"Thank you for your message. Your workshop was amazing. Specially the story telling part and the pitching matrix. How to streamline with Audience emotions was also one of the best takeaways."

"It was a really nice training session with you yesterday. Personally for me, I liked the very first concept of picturing the idea and making it easier for the audience to understand and i think this was one of the take aways from yesterday's workshop."

"It s a pleasure for me being a part of this camp and Im really happy to listen you. After you, I talked all my friends easily. Your talk is not only useful for presentations. It is also useful for daily life, I understand that. The other thing is keep it simple. I should explain my ideas like explaining to a child. It is good for speaking English. There is no need to use fancy words. The last thing is I shouldn’t tell my idea directly, instead of this, I should tell a story. Im looking forward to tell story of my projects."

Cahit Alpdemir - Mechatronics Engineer at VITRONIC Machine Vision, Industrial Automation

"I think this part of the camp was the most interesting one for me because what I realized is that storytelling is actually the most important part of pitching your idea! The "mindblowing" moment for me was the "using empathy" part where you showed us the video with oxytocin. Also, the tips you gave us in the end helped us correct the pitch, because for example, my elevator pitch on the first started with "I'm sure you have heard of..." and you told us to never use that approach. Overall, I have really enjoyed your presentation and I learned a lot of things. I can't wait to attend more events like this because I realized that storytelling is actually something I am really comfortable with, and that I might dedicate more of my time to practising it."

"It was super awesome to be there yesterday Thank you so much! I would briefly say; how to convince the audience by emotions and what do you need exactly from the audience: Are they investors? Customers? Or partners? Depending on your audience you would base your emotional formula to have them!"

"It was an incredible experience that we had and I think you are an incredible speaker and also gave us the possibility to learn a lot about storytelling and the importance which I hadn't before so for me it was a very good experience and also one that I would probably use the most in my future so thank you."

Maria Inês Mendes - Analyst intern at iBB - Institute for Bioengineering and Biosciences Internship

"I really enjoyed our workshop, thank you for making it so interesting and engaging. Well, for me it was this: If you want to sell something you have to (1) create the right atmosphere either through positive or negative emotions, (2) use the simplest of words and examples to explain the technical- business stuff and (3) look confident and sure about your idea and that you can deliver what you promise."

"I would like to say that it was very great opportunity for me to be at your workshop. I really enjoyed and have learn a lot from you. Thank you for sharing your experience with us.

"Thanks for such an amazing workshop. I enjoyed it a lot. It was fun, inspiring and at the same time a great learning experience. Personally, there were many insights that were relevant, many of which now seem obvious but weren’t before. So I would say, bringing all the different points together as a complete package, was it for me."
