BabyBird Guide Helps Shark Tank Survivor Explain How to Win Investment Dollars
Austin, TX (PRWEB) August 12, 2013 -- The end-to-end guide for entrepreneurs aspiring for a spot on the television show Shark Tank is now available. The BabyBird Guide to Shark Tank: From Prep to Pitch, an Insider’s Guide explains how to avoid being eaten alive when pitching a business to potential investors. The book is written by Erin Whalen, who was successful in landing funding for Grease Monkey Wipes in Season One of ABC's hit show Shark Tank. In this tightly written guide, entrepreneurs will learn what it takes to land a spot on the show and can increase their chances for success with advice from someone who has been there before.
"Pitching on Shark Tank is an incredible experience,” said Whalen, “You are putting yourself out there in a big way just by trying out for the show. It can be quite overwhelming. Knowing what you are getting into minimizes nervousness and allows you to focus on giving a great pitch. An entrepreneur's chief goal is to land funding. If sharing my experiences will reduce any worry about logistical details and increase someone’s chance for winning investment dollars, then this effort has been worthwhile.”
Shark Tank averages seven million viewers an episode and hundreds of businesses are fighting for a spot on the show. "Ever since my episode aired, other entrepreneurs have contacted me to get advice on the whole Shark Tank process,” Whalen explained. “They ask me everything from the makings of a successful application, how the filming process works, and what being on television is like. I wrote this guide to help people understand and prepare for the Shark Tank journey and share what worked for me in being successful on the show."
Entrepreneurs will learn the specifics behind the process of applying to be a contestant on the show and how to stand out amongst the approximately 36,000 prospective competitors per season. The exclusive advice offered in this eBook is beneficial to any small business owner or entrepreneur in their investment-seeking journey.
“Our brand concept is to deliver materials that are short and packed with information,” said Tanya White, Founder of BabyBird Guide. “We want our ebooks to be fun and powerful for the reader, which means having a very tight editorial process and working with people like Erin who can articulate their knowledge in a clear and concise manner,” White continued, “BabyBird Guide is thrilled that Erin chose to work with us for her authoring experience. She trusted us to ensure that all questions readers had would be answered. I’m proud of that.”
Ultimately, Whalen hopes that entrepreneurs in any pitching situation will benefit from the book. She explained, "Even though each pitching experience is different, I hope this book will help business owners become more prepared and confident for whatever type of pitching situation they face."
