Why Aligning Your Pitch with Financial Mastery Creates a Bull Run of Opportunity
There’s something electric about a woman who owns her lane — and Sherry Cummins is that woman. On a recent episode of The Michigan Innovation Podcast, Sherry brought the heat on all things pitch perfection, and I couldn’t help but see the synergy between her work and a powerful chapter 10 in my book Charge Like a Bull https://a.co/d/cbmFinm — the one on Mastering Financial Returns.
Here’s the deal: Sherry’s not just a pitch coach. She’s a launchpad. Through her work with WePitch and the Great Lakes Business Council, she helps entrepreneurs distill their story and sharpen their offer until it's irresistible. That’s not just about storytelling — that’s financial strategy in action. That’s ROI with lipstick and heels.
In Charge Like a Bull, I talk about how pitching isn’t just for investors — it’s how we communicate the financial promise of what we do. Whether you’re building a tech company, launching a non-profit, or scaling your side hustle, mastering your message means mastering your money. Sherry’s framework proves this in real time.
5 Ideals That Align Sherry’s Work with Bull-Charging Growth
Clarity Wins – A clear pitch eliminates confusion. And clarity breeds confidence — which investors and clients can smell a mile away.

Audience Awareness – Know who’s listening and why they care. Mastery isn’t just about what you say — it’s about what they hear.
Bold Delivery – Sherry’s clients learn to own the stage. My readers learn to own the market.
