I could really use some assistance and advice, I need to write a pitch for a Facebook product the I will be launching soon, the problem is we have a business where we are great at development.. But.. Sort of suckish at coming up with the right words to pitch our product.. Does anyone know or has use a professional service that will give the our product the true verbiage to be noticed.. And also need the services of a PR writer service.
Just to let you all know I have done some research on this issue, what I have found was I’m probably more confused than when I first started I can’t distinguish who is good and who is great.
Thanks Alf.

Alf, what country is your product for or is it a worldwide product? Who is your target audience? And, as Russell asked, what is the product? @donalfdellifiori

@russellallert We have developed a product that business owners can have a platform to display their brand on Facebook with more real-estate timeline ready, this project will basically started to pull together large brands with multiple pages with multiple languages with full admin backend, all in one place, but this project has become more than that, it’s a fully managed solution for all types of business with several modules and tools depending on their needs all designed around SEO and social media requirements.

@donalfdellifiori I don’t know if this will help, but I just posted about Kickstarter.com- You can see people who are pitching their products or have pitched their products and they have actually been funded… good information,

@prestonodenbrett @deairby I just had a look at Kickstarter and I was impressed I didn’t know it existed thanks for the heads up .. this may come in handy later when we launch.. in the mean time I still need a business writer that understands what really counts to be noticed and worded promotional and why it’s a great product .. the pitch is primarily aimed at start-up recognition I was hoping to have a professional consultant that can guide me through the Seas of Social Media with a great pitch on the project .

do you have a “tag line” or is that what you are looking for? in other words, what makes your product unique…the one thing that stands out that would make someone want to buy it? @donalfdellifiori

@deairby @russellallert The one thing I would say its a fully managed service , we are probably a week or so from showcasing a beta version .. in our discussions today we would be happy for you and maybe up to ten others from the boards to have a look and test drive it and get some feedback also if you can recommend other that may be interested in the same .. in reality to start with we need someone that can write some great marketing material and a sales pitch to promote the project and for that we are willing to do two things 1. give a full free version and 2. use their services for our marketing efforts.. they were just some thoughts we bantered around today.

“fully managed service” means-you take care of everything for the client?I’m looking for a short phrase that capsulates your product, that totally explains how you and you alone can solve someone’s problem. Do you know how to say that? @donalfdellifiori

@donalfdellifiori I would be interested in testing it out, if you want to test out our mobile app for small business. Sounds like we have the same thoughts.

@deairby @prestonodenbrett Hi Preston right now we are nearly at the completion of the project and looking at your Bio more than happy to exchange ideas and services this is exactly what I was hopping to achieve.. we still don’t have a Tagline or a product pitch as we are not at that stage, although after initial discussions today with a SME I think we are going to be on the right path thanks to the boards… Alf Delli Fiori
