Re: What is in your FIRST elevator pitch?
Quote:
Puff pieces are easy to do, and they work really well with VIPs in suits... You just need to be careful about people's eyes glazing over. If you can think on your feet, you can shift the tone between the super formal "FIRST is raising the next generation of technology leaders..." and the informal. "we build cool robots that do cool stuff!" Usually I adjust according to age, though there are other things to account for. elevator pitches are fun! -Chris |

Re: What is in your FIRST elevator pitch?
heh it is funny that you ask, I have a short story to tell.
After winning UC-Davis, the alliance team (including myself) Was in out hotel elevator, we were carrying trophies, wearing medals, and all lightened up with excitement. At the second floor a lady gets on going up, looks strait at me, and ask what we were up to. By the time we got to the second floor I was done with my little overview and we stepped off. When the Team President last year looks at me and says "Wow Tim, Perfect Elevator speech!" anyways, it basically covered most of the same things as stated above. not much you can say in one or two floors. |
