                               Market Day – Pitch Reflection

1. How do you think your pitch went? Summarize the parts of your pitch in 3 to 5 sentences.

I think the pitch went well. We first showed them our prezi and they liked it. Next we got a deal and it was $42.00 with $4.00 interest and you give him 2 tops if you have them left. There was another deal and it was $42.00 with $3.00 interest and you need to give him 2 tops. We found out what the best deal was and we got the money.

2. What went well?

They really liked our idea. We got the $42.00. They liked our idea so much they wanted two tops.

3. What did not go so well?

I think we could have done better eye contact and we didn’t know the answer to one question at first.

We were standing across the room from the four “sharks” and Mr. Bouman. All eyes were on US!

5. How did you feel before, during, and after the pitch?

Before the pitch I was so nervous and I was worried that we would not get the money.

During the pitch I was less nervous and I was excited.

After the pitch I was relieved, very happy and glad that it was over.
