That ELEVATOR PITCH !

That ELEVATOR PITCH !

I was watching the Amazon ELEVATOR PITCH Program on YouTube hosted by NETFLIX Co-Founder and first CEO Marc Randolph. And similar to the APPRENTICE Program hosted by Former U.S. President Donald Trump, the ELEVATOR PITCH gives CxO-level executives 60 seconds [max!] to pitch to prospective investors. Googling it instantly, ELEVATOR PITCH is a brief [max 60 seconds] way of introducing yourself or your purpose, getting across a key point or two, and establishing a connection with someone, sometimes your very 'target recipient' of your message๐Ÿ’ด๐Ÿ’ท๐Ÿ’ต
So, you might ask, WHY am I pitching for this if this is ELEVATOR PITCH is more appropriate in the corporate world?  NO sirrrrrs.  At home with our family.  With our friends.  With our workmates, with our clients, anytime where you can pitch in an ELEVATOR PITCH, go for it.  WHY?  Time is of the essence.  Time is our most limited and most precious 'commodity' regardless of the environment you are now into๐Ÿ“—๐Ÿ“™๐Ÿ“˜
You've just bumped with a former client at the airport.  After exchanging pleasantries, he asks you WHAT your company does.  You open your mouth and then PAUSEWHERE on Earth would you start? Then as you get your thoughts organized, his flight boarding is called and OFF he goes.  Had you been better prepared, surely he would have stayed a minute or two more, enough for you to arrange for a CATCH UP the coming weeks๐Ÿ’Ž๐Ÿ’Ž๐Ÿ’Ž
A misconception is that the ELEVATOR PITCH is only for salespersons.  NO sir, NOT at all.  You could even catch up with a relative or long lost friend and reconnect and arrange to reconvene in the coming days.  It could be a colleague from WHOM you will ask a favor to swap shift schedules with❗❗❗
If you're still active in the job market and you  bump across a headhunter you had a brief chat before, you could quickly explore if there are market opportunities he can consider you.  OR it could be one of your company's vendors/contractors and you want to reinforce their post-sales support, so you get that that chance to sit down with their senior executive.  Just one too many opportunities even via an ELEVATOR PITCH✅✅✅

Straight from my thought processes...
