A good idea needs a good pitch. But coming up with one can often be a struggle. In some cases, the issue is that your idea isn't just polished enough. In most, it just means you don't know how to make a good pitch. In the upcoming issue of The Rift newsletter I want to go over my method of pitching an elevator - if you have anything that works for you, feel free to share. http://therift.news/

This was two years ago: https://saqibtahir.com/welcome-to-the-rift/ And this was one year ago: https://sknexus.com/goal-of-my-content/ The idea was simple, I had diverse experiences and a passionate drive to share my journey with others. So today, I am moving to the next stage - ‘The Rift’ What is The Rift? Primarily, it’s a consolidation effort. To date I have written a lot, across a lot of different platforms - I want to bring it all under one roof. The Rift is for Exploring Early Stage Pains at the Intersection of Product, Tech, and Business. Some Background Context Over the past few years I have published over 100K words in various formats, covering three primary aspects: 1 - Product - https://saqibtahir.com/ I wrote content for early-stage Startup Founders to help them with their Product Gaps. I feel like Product Management needs to be subsidized in scope to make sense for those who are just starting out. My content served as my way of focusing on the most important aspects of Product Management when it came to launching a startup. 2- Business and Career - https://thewanderingpro.com/ If you know my career history, you know I jumped a lot of hoops - and had success with it. TWP was my attempt at sharing all that I have learned with others who find themselves in similar struggles. Based in Pakistan, opportunities are sparse - and standing out is even harder. Learning how to transition from a 9to5 to a freelancer to a business owner - was a journey I found worth sharing. 3 - Tech - https://sknexus.com/ Last - but certainly not least - tech is still at my heart with everything I do. Born in an environment where passion dies the moment you turn 18 - I have kept the embers lit within me. SKN was my outlet to talk about what I want and write about what I think needs to be said when it comes to tech. I feel like there is a massive gap in content when we consider the Pakistani perspective and I wanted to fill that need with SKN.
