You don’t know what to say.
Even if you did know what to say, they’re not going to like your pitch.
And even if they did like your pitch, they’re never going to give you any money.
Do any of those thoughts run through your head when you have to give a pitch?
Do you get nervous?
When I get nervous, would you like to know what calms me down?
Watching one of my favorite television shows.
Like Abbott Elementary.
It will calm you down, too.
Hello.
My name is Mahlena-Rae Johnson, and this is How Abbott Elementary Would Write a Startup Pitch.
First, we have Principal Ava with the sizzle, to keep your investors awake.
Second, we have Gregory Eddie with the steak, to show why your product is the best choice for the market right now.
Third, we have Janine Teagues with the heart, the mission and vision fueling your company.
Want to learn how to put these three pieces together into one entertaining, efficient, and endearing package for your next pitch?
Then YOU need to choose ME as your next solo speaker for South by Southwest EDU 2025.
Thank you.

Hello, bonjour.
Speaker, comedian, and 6-time author Mahlena-Rae Johnson (that's me 💁🏾) is The Only Presentation Coach for Introverted CEOs.
Yes, the ONLY one.
She has consistently taught leaders how to feel the fear and speak on stage anyway for over 2 decades.
The quirky CEO of her company Mahlena Speaks, Mahlena honed her relationship-building skills while earning her MBA in Marketing at the University of Southern California. She later translated her quiet savvy for connecting with like-minded individuals into expanding her media empire from the US to Canada, where she taught graduate level classes in Social Media at Seneca Polytechnic. On her LinkedIn Live show Conquer Performance Pressure with Mahlena-Rae Johnson, Mahlena teaches her audience of competent leaders how to tell your story, with powerful persuasion.
A Canadienne of Américaine descent, Mahlena is living her best life in the suburbs of Toronto. This megalomaniacal INTJ has been featured on BusinessBecause, CBC Kids, The Global Chatter Podcast, Murder, We Spoke: a Murder, She Wrote podcast, The New to Canada Podcast, and more. She has a passion for writing and speaking about professional development and executive education topics including personal branding, multimedia storytelling, building a new network for immigrants and expats, and writing a ten-second elevator pitch.
Mahlena also loves choco chip cookies and BTS. 🍪💜
