Inside Pitch helps aligned businesses and organisations (think renewable energy developers, environmental advocacy groups and social policy peak bodies) sharpen their pitch before it goes in front of government — so what you’re asking for is clear, the story holds, and someone can actually act on it.

Most of my work is with the documents behind the pitch — decks, briefs, proposals. Either reviewing or developing a specific piece, or alongside a team while they prepare.
For when you have something but you’re not sure it’s working.
For when you have the details, but not the approach.
Fees: Smaller pieces of work are a fixed fee. Larger pieces of work and ongoing support can be project based or scoped as a retainer. Not sure what you need? Get in touch and I’ll suggest an approach and give you a quote.
I’m Kathleen - I'm a policy nerd with a background in strategic communications and a passion for clear, persuasive narratives that shift the dial.
My background spans policy, strategic communications, stakeholder engagement and media. I’ve worked inside government writing briefs, submissions and advice, and earlier in my career in journalism, local government and federal politics. My work has taken me across renewable energy, social policy and community-sector organisations.
I’ve reviewed a lot of material put forward for government over the years. The same issues come up:
That’s the gap I focus on.
Good ideas don’t stall because they’re weak. They stall because they’re not communicated in a way that’s easy to engage with or act on.
My approach is straightforward: get clear on what actually matters, sharpen the ask, and make it easier for your audience to act.
Got something in progress that isn’t landing? Send it through. I’ll give you a clear read on what’s working, what isn’t, and where to focus.
