1 Identify your strengths

Before you pitch your writing skills to your boss, you need to know what makes you a good writer. What are your areas of expertise, your unique voice, your preferred formats and styles? How do you use writing to solve problems, convey messages, or persuade audiences? Think of specific examples of your writing projects that demonstrate your strengths and the value you bring to your organization. Write them down and keep them handy for your pitch.

Demonstrate to your employer how your writing skills can benefit the company and its bottom line. Persuasive writing can help win clients and influence stakeholders. Offering to proofread or edit your colleagues’ work is another way to show your skills and your willingness to contribute to the team. If you see an area where improved writing could make a difference, take the initiative to create a better written product. For example, rewriting a confusing report or draft a more compelling client proposal.

3 Prepare your pitch

Now that you have identified your strengths and aligned them with your goals, you need to prepare your pitch. To create an effective pitch, it should be concise, clear, and confident. Begin with a hook to capture your boss's attention, such as a catchy statement, a question, or a compliment. Then state your purpose for pitching your writing skills and what you want to achieve. Showcase your skills by sharing writing examples, testimonials, or feedback that demonstrate your value. Propose a plan for how you can use your writing skills to tackle a challenge or opportunity, or to improve a process or outcome. Finally, ask for feedback from your boss on your pitch and plan.

4 Deliver your pitch

Once you have prepared your pitch, you need to deliver it. You can choose the best method and timing for your pitch depending on your boss's preferences and availability. You can pitch your writing skills in person, by phone, by email, or by video call. You can pitch them during a performance review, a one-on-one meeting, or a casual conversation. Whatever you choose, make sure you are respectful, polite, and professional. Be prepared to answer questions, address objections, and negotiate terms. Thank your boss for their time and attention, and follow up with a summary and a reminder of your plan.

To make creating and delivering a pitch easier, I'm sharing what works for me: -Tell a story The easiest way to approach pitching when you don't know how to do it is to tell a story relevant to your audience. - Lead with facts When you start your pitch with facts, you establish trust and become credible in the eyes of your audience. - Address a common pain point By addressing a common issue, you gain your audience's attention while building a connection that makes them more open to engaging with your pitch. - Ask a question Start your pitch by stimulating your audience's mind by asking a gripping question relevant to your offering. This technique will set the stage for your solution by peaking your audience's curiosity.
