The elevator pitch redefined and made simpler. Questions to guide you as you prepare your pitch.

2. Getting someone to care about you enough to want to
do business with you

3. Personalize the problem and give them a
solution

4. Show credibility – who else have you fixed this
problem for?

5. Not too much selling, No NDA signed yet. Confidently
show that you are right person for the job, nothing more.

6. Reason has to be clear- I want money, I need a
job, Let them know exactly what you want

7. You are trying to win over someone’s trust. Be
yourself, make a mistake laugh and start again.
Don’t sound like a recording.
