Creating Brand Partnerships Through Pitching with Jonathan Levine, CEO of Master & Dynamic

People want to do business with people they feel a certain connection with. Chemistry is essential to making a partnership work, and a good pitch should try to find some way to build some level of chemistry with the brand that you’re giving the pitch to. After all, you would want to have a good relationship with the company you’re about to do business with.

Jonathan is the founder and CEO of Master & Dynamic, a New York City-based design-driven premium audio company that makes earphones, headphones, speakers, and earbuds that sound and look incredible. He is an incredibly successful entrepreneur who has grown his sophisticated sound brand to over 500 partner stores around the world.
