Jacaranda FM announces winner of Her Perfect Pitch!
Updated | By Breakfast with Martin Bester
Jacaranda FM invited women-led businesses to pitch their ideas to top female leaders at the station to stand the chance of winning the grand prize worth over R500,000 to enrich their business. Here is our winner!
In the spirit of Women’s Month, Jacaranda FM continued to champion the women of Mzansi by giving them the tools and resources to break boundaries.
In a bid to elevate female entrepreneurs within the Jacaranda FM community, the station launched an initiative, #HerPerfectPitch – a campaign to help female entrepreneurs perfect their elevator pitches and take their business to the next level by winning a prize package worth over R500,000.
The station called on female entrepreneurs to send a video pitch no longer than 94.2 seconds to explain what their business is about, why their business is important, how it gives back to the community, and what help they think their business needs to take it to the next level. Alongside the video, a complete company profile, including more detail about the business, the staff compliment, a business plan, and a five-year growth plan was included in the submission.
Our panel of female leaders; Jacaranda FM Managing Director Deirdre King, Jacaranda FM’s Commercial Manager Jane Ruinard, Jacaranda FM presenters and entrepreneurs Rozanne McKenzie and Elana Afrika-Bredenkamp, and Woman Of Stature Foundation CEO Charlotte du Plessis chose 10 entrants who were invited to pitch their business in 94.2 seconds or less.
After many great submissions, one finalist reigned as the #HerPerfectPitch winner.
Congratulations to Cheri Afonso from House Hoppers on winning the grand prize!
