Transforming Elevator Pitches into Meaningful Connections
A new approach to elevator pitches emphasizes the importance of engaging in a two-way conversation rather than delivering a one-sided message. Instead of simply stating what you do, it's more effective to ask questions that prompt the listener to share their experiences. For example, instead of saying, 'I run medical facilities,' an entrepreneur could ask, 'Have you or someone you know ever had an MRI or CAT scan?' This method encourages connection by allowing the listener to relate their personal experiences, thereby making the conversation more memorable and engaging.
