Meet the #KillerPitchMaster – Precious L. Williams
To understand me is to understand my experience. I once weighed 327 pounds and somehow used my moxie, grit and determination to talk my way into funding for a company that didn’t even exist — Curvy Girlz Lingerie. I made this company a reality and my ability to think on my feet, boldly break the rules and tell a story has since made me the #KillerPitchMaster. Some also refer to me as the female McGuyver of business!
Not only am I a 13-time elevator pitch champion, I’ve successfully appeared on “Shark Tank” and taken my company from $0 to multi-6 figures in less than 2 years. I’ve since watched my clients gain national and international media attention, secure corporate training contracts and launch their next beautiful NOW!
