Pitching Research®: A Comprehensive Resource Center Supplement

In this paper I provide details on an extensive resource center to support Faff’s (2015, 2018a) pitching template framework – a framework that provides a succinct and methodical approach to pitching a new research proposal to an academic expert. Specifically, I give a comprehensive update and latest information (including numerous actionable hyperlinks), most notably, relating to: (a) an e-library of 248 worked pitching template examples; (b) a separate listing of 78 worked examples relevant to finance research topics; (c) a separate listing of 38 worked examples relevant to accounting research topics; (d) the associated webportal, “PitchMyResearch.com” and website “pitchingresearch.com”; (e) a stable of 23 associated SSRN “pitching” papers; (f) doctoral symposia and coursework applications of the pitching research® framework; (g) research grant application of the pitching research® framework; (h) YouTube video resources; (i) publication opportunities, via “pitching research letters”; and (j) research digest initiatives.
