“John is fantastic. He treated newbies and those with experience with the same interest and respect for their work. He shares his experience with examples of his past shows which makes beat sheet expectations clear and understandable. It's evident he's an amazing writer because he's like a laser beam to the issues in the beat sheets and offers a clever, funny or perfect solution to fix them. ”
“John did a great job at helping us dissect our beat sheets and gave us excellent and informative feedback on areas of improvement. His feedback is invaluable.”
“Very thorough and supportive, spent extra time to make sure he could give thoughtful and specific advice.”
“He kept it real. I love his no bullshit approach about advice and what the business is like and how hard it is. No sugar coating but at the same time kind and realistically encouraging.”
“John listened and gave concrete guidance and supportive feedback. Really created a safe environment for us to share.”
“Both John & Nina were so great at sharing their own real world experiences and being open and honest about the entire experience of making a great pitch & pitch deck and what it is like to be in the room. I learned so much about how to improve and move forward with my project. They give great insight, suggestions, and ideas. I'd love to learn more from them in the future.”
“They clearly broke down the basic elements of what are needed in a pitch deck, then modeled what it would be like to present one. John and Nina also listened thoughtfully to all pitches/decks presented and offered excellent feedback and suggestions in a very positive and encouraging manner.”
“The whole experience was wonderful: the material they so generously gave us before and during class, the opportunity to pitch to them, and their feedback - it was all invaluable.”
“John & Nina provided a lot of great input on my pilot that will help me immensely. They were direct while also being kind.”
