Testimonials

His feedback and encouragement is extremely helpful. He has a kind and patient demeanor. This was my first time pitching with an exec I had never met before (on my own, not in an online class setting). I felt like he was on my side from the beginning and wanted me to do well on this pitch. I'm implementing his suggestions into the pitch now.

Joe was very easy to talk to and gave helpful feedback that I can incorporate in future pitches.

How it Works

After registering, you will receive instructions on how to submit your material in your order confirmation email. After submitting your material, please allow 3-4 weeks to receive proposed times for scheduling your call with the exec.

**Please note script outlines are limited to 10 pages maximum. Please contact terra@roadmapwriters.com for pricing on a consultation for a script outline exceeding 10 pages.

Be sure to familiarize yourself with Roadmap's Code of Conduct.

Cancellation Policy: You may cancel your registration for a refund or Roadmap gift card if you have not yet submitted your material for review. However, once your material has been received by Roadmap, your registration cannot be canceled. Having revised material or a desire to retroactively apply a discount or gift card code are not grounds for cancellation, refunds, or gift card credit. Once your material has been submitted, the only acceptable grounds for cancellation and a refund or gift card credit is an unforeseen, ongoing emergency on the part of either the writer or the exec resulting in more than 6 weeks without any scheduling update from the exec via direct contact or Roadmap, or a sudden change in the exec's ongoing availability. In the instance of an irreconcilable scheduling issue, the writer may still receive a written feedback report from the exec. In this case, the writer is not entitled to a refund or gift card credit as the exec has read the submitted material and provided written feedback in lieu of the call.
