How To Pitch A Reality Show If The Person You're Meeting Is A Lower Level Executive

How should I pitch if the person I'm meeting is a lower-level executive?

There's not much difference in pitching a reality show to a lower level executive and pitching to a green light high level executive. The difference to me is that at the end of the meeting you have to understand that person has to explain your show to somebody else. I think the most important thing in those lower level meetings is to make sure that you've got them excited. Then you have a second step, which is make sure they can almost repeat back to you what the reality show is or that they fully understand it. Often you can get so excited that you think your job is done and you leave. When they try to explain it to their boss and they fumble over it because it was a week later and it was a development meeting and they blow the pitch for you. It's really important to spend a little extra time, if you can in those lower level meetings, and talk about the project more and make sure they really understand what you're selling so they can then explain it further up.
