About this listen

Want to deliver a pitch or presentation that grabs your audience’s ever-shrinking attention span? Ditch the colorful slides and catchy language. And follow one simple rule: Convey only what needs to be said, clearly and concisely, in three minutes or less.

That’s the 3-Minute Rule.


Hollywood producer and pitch master Brant Pinvidic has sold more than three hundred TV shows and movies, run a TV network, and helmed one of the largest production companies in the world with smash hits like The Biggest Loser and Bar Rescue. In his nearly twenty years of experience, he’s developed a simple, straightforward system that’shelped hundreds—from Fortune 100 CEOs to PTA presidents—use top-level Hollywood storytelling techniques to simplify their messages and say less to get more.

Pinvidic proves that anyone can deliver a great pitch, for any idea, in any situation, so your audience not only remembers your message but can pass it on to their friends and colleagues. You’ll see how his methods work in a wide range of situations—from presenting investment opportunities in a biotech startup to pitching sponsorship deals for major sports stadiums, and more.

Now it’s your turn. The 3-Minute Rule will equip you with an easy, foolproof method to boil down any idea to its essential elements and structure it for maximum impact.

Simplify. Say less. Get More.

I found the information laid out in a very structured and accessible way. The process has been invaluable ever since, although I knew many of the individual elements as a result of learning them through my career, putting them in this specific order helped structure my thinking further.

This strategy has really helped me pitch ideas to stakeholders and business partners with much more success.

Previously my presentations had the wrong structure and too much information which confused the audience. Now I confidently strip out unnecessary information and end presentations waiting for the questions to flood in, instead of the confused audience interrupting my presentation seeking clarity.
