Advanced Writing-TC333 - Reading - Elevator Pitch

The document provides guidelines for creating an effective elevator pitch to present to potential investors. An elevator pitch should be a concise 30-second introduction that stimulates interest in the project and describes the exit for investors and the presenter. It then presses the button by describing the product or service, who will buy it and why they will buy from you specifically. Finally, the conclusion notes key participants and qualifications, the funding amount needed and how it will be used, the financial exit plan, and next steps for contact or referrals.
