Pitch One Tiny Offer (Even If It’s “Too Small”)
Let me paint you a picture.
You’re sitting at your desk. You've got ideas. Wild ones. Creative ones. Things you might do one day—when the timing’s right, the brand is polished, and your social media is finally “consistent.” Sound familiar? Now here’s a thought: What if “one day” is just a fancy way of saying “never”?
This week, I’m inviting you to try something bold: Pitch one tiny offer.
Not when you’re “ready.” Not when your website is finished. Now.
Why Tiny Offers Matter More Than You Think
You know that voice that says, “But who would pay for this?” or “It’s not good enough yet”? That voice is scared. And it’s normal. But it's not a voice you want driving your creative career. Here’s the thing: tiny offers are practice for courage. They're not about profit. They're about momentum. They prove you're willing to back yourself—before anyone else does.
I’ve seen people test ideas by offering 30-minute brainstorm calls for €15.
Others sold hand-drawn doodles for €5.
One person wrote custom haikus for €3. (Yes, seriously.)
And guess what? It wasn’t about the money.
It was about reclaiming creative power. About taking that first leap from “I have an idea” to “I acted on it.”
Think Like a Coach (Not a Perfectionist)
Perfectionists wait. They tweak. They research. They plan to death. But coaches? Coaches act. They meet people where they are. They test things. They offer support before it’s “perfect.” If you want to create work that moves people—or even start a business doing what you love—you have to shift gears:
🔁 From What if it flops?
➡️ To What might I learn?
🔁 From I need it to be polished.
➡️ To I need to start somewhere.
🔁 From Will people take me seriously?
➡️ To I take myself seriously enough to try.
You don’t have to be a coach to think like one. You just need to believe in tiny progress, not perfect timing.
What Could a Tiny Offer Look Like?
Here’s a cheat sheet of ideas you could pitch this week:
- A 20-minute idea jam for €10
- A one-paragraph bio rewrite for someone’s LinkedIn
- A one-page website audit
- A 3-photo Instagram review with personalized feedback
- A simple Notion template for freelancers
- A mini poetry reading, guided journaling session, or virtual workspace co-focus hour
The key is to keep it specific, tiny, and fast to deliver.
You're not selling a full-service package. You’re saying, “Here’s one small way I can help you this week.”
Tell People You’re Available—This Week Only
Set a time limit. It’s easier to take action when there’s a deadline.
Something like:
“I’m trying a tiny experiment this week. I’m offering 3 one-on-one brainstorm calls for anyone stuck on a creative project. €15. No upsell, no fluff. Just clarity. DM me if you want in.”
Or:
“Trying something new this week. If you need a second set of eyes on your homepage, I’m offering 5 micro-reviews—just €10. Quick, kind, and honest. Message me.”
You don’t need a sales funnel. You don’t need a checkout page. You just need to put your offer in front of real people and let it exist in the world.
What Happens When You Hit Post
You’ll sweat a little. Your brain will scream things like “Delete it! No one will respond!” But wait.
Sometimes no one responds.
That’s fine. You didn’t fail—you learned.
You practiced courage.
You learned what lands.
You built the muscle of shipping before you're “ready.”
And sometimes? Someone says yes.
And that one yes? It changes things.
Your Move
Here’s the real challenge:
Post your tiny offer within the next 72 hours.
Doesn’t have to be fancy. Doesn’t have to be on every platform.
Just show up. Pitch one small thing.
Even if only your cat claps for you.
Because this week, we’re not waiting to be chosen.
We’re choosing ourselves. One creative leap at a time.
