How to pitch an idea. Tip number 3: State the outcome you want from the meeting. If you don't make it clear at the beginning what you want from the pitch, what you want the outcome to be, what you want the audience to do— if you don't make that clear at the start, the audience isn't going to know what's expected of them. Make it clear at the start if you're asking for support. Are you asking for funding? Are you asking the audience to provide feedback? And help improve the idea. You need to know what you want the audience to do, what you want the outcome of that pitch to be. And when you are pitching your idea, you need to make it clear to the audience what you want the outcome to be.
