Say this

“You have three minutes. Show us what you made, how many people you asked, what happened and what you're doing next.”

Finish line

Every team has a three-minute story outline, a 90-day plan and a filming slot.

If late: Cut visual examples. Keep evidence, the 90-day plan, filming assignments and the three-minute limit.

Speaker notes

Slide 1

0:30Release to build

  • 60 minutes to build the plan, rehearse and complete filming slots.
  • Mentors pushing on realism, not polish.
  • 4:30 hard stop: submissions close through the configured presentation path.
1In the roomCallouts
No numbers
"How many did you ask? How many said no? Say the numbers. They're the proof."
Hiding the failure
"The failure is the most interesting thing you have. Lead with it."
Fantasy plan ("go viral")
"What are you doing Tuesday? Be specific."
$10K math doesn't work
"At your price, how many sales? Is that number possible? If not, change the price."
Reading off a screen
"Close the laptop. Tell me like you're telling a friend."
Zero sales, deflated
"Twenty-two conversations and zero sales is a finding. Most adults never get that far. Pitch the finding."
A kid wants to stop but thinks that means losing
It doesn't and the deck says so. Help them make the strongest case for stopping. That presentation lands best in the room.
Filming slots slipping
Non-negotiable. Pull people out of the build block if you have to.
  • The $10K math, done properly: price → sales needed → per month → per week. If the weekly number is absurd, the price is wrong or the market is wrong. Either realisation is a good outcome.
  • Push on truth, not delivery. A nervous kid with real data beats a polished kid with none.
  • The best question is always 'what does your log say?'
  • Praise a stop decision as loudly as a sale. The room is watching how you react.
  • Don't rehearse them into a script. Filmed authenticity is what makes the video worth sending.
