Why We Ask to Pitch for Your Brief
Ever wondered why we always ask for a pitch meeting when responding to your brief? It’s not just a formality or a sales tactic—it’s a crucial part of how we work. Here’s a little insight into our process and why we think it makes a difference.
We Love Coming Up with Ideas
Coming up with film ideas is one of the best parts of our job. It’s exciting, creative, and—if we’re honest—pretty intense. When we take on a charity video project or a non-profit film campaign, we go deep. We research, we explore, and we immerse ourselves in your goals, your audience, and your mission. The result? A whole heap of ideas and a whole lot to say.
Our Proposals Are Thorough
All that research and excitement translate into detailed proposals. And when we say detailed, we mean detailed. Our proposals often run between 30 and 50 pages. That’s a lot of reading. But we believe it’s important to share every idea, every creative angle, and every cost breakdown so you have everything you need to make an informed decision about your charity film production.
Enter the Pitch
Now, we get it—50 pages of document diving isn’t everyone’s idea of fun. That’s where our pitch meetings come in. These aren’t formal sales presentations. They’re relaxed, conversational sessions where we walk you through our proposal, explain our ideas, share references, and answer any questions you have.
Why This Matters
- Clarity: Sometimes, key details can get lost in a long document. A pitch ensures you don’t miss anything crucial.
- Live Feedback: If something isn’t quite right, or you’d like to tweak an idea, we can discuss and adjust in real time.
- Understanding Your Needs: A pitch gives you the chance to make sure we’ve fully grasped your vision before we move forward.
- Collaboration from the Start: Open communication from minute one makes for better projects and smoother working relationships.
So, if we ask for a pitch call for your video project, this is why. It’s not just about us explaining our ideas—it’s about making sure we’re aligned and set up to create something great together. Whether you’re planning a fundraising video, a storytelling campaign for your non-profit, or an awareness video for your charity, our pitch process ensures we’re on the same page from day one.
