17A – Elevator Pitch No. 2


  • All the feedback I received on my last pitch involved me either not getting to the point of the product, or me being too stiff. I definitely saw what they meant by the first point. I got too wrapped up in the numbers and data and didn't focus on the idea itself. As for the second point, I totally agree and I knew it when I filmed it. It's harder to film standing with a camera compared to behind a podium or even face to face with someone.
  • I changed my pitch almost completely. I wanted to blend the idea and the data behind the idea more elegantly. I also tried to have more dynamic body language, which I'm absolutely sure looked awkward. Please roast me. Last time I was too stiff, so this time I tried different gestures and gesticulations, which I don't think look great. By pitch 3 I'll have it down.

  1. Andrew,

    I like your pitch. You were very descriptive about the location, demographics and purpose of your project and how it can better improve the unmet need for a comic book store. One thing you can do to improve is slow down a little and pace yourself. Other than that your pitch was spot on and straight to the point.

  2. Andrew,

    I think you did a really good job this time on your pitch. like you, i also rceived feedback regarding my first pitch and how i was not energetic enough. It is important to state data in your elevator pitch if it pertains to your product. I noticed that you tried different hand gestures which is something that happened to work for me. Other than these few little things i really enjoyed your speech and cant wait to listen to your third one.
