Creating and using your compelling elevator speech
(A Crain's Business Chicago Small Business Week Event)
Your elevator speech is a summary of your business proposition. You use it every day in your networking and selling process. Think about the prospects who desire to learn more and the customers who want to be reassured that they have made the right choice.
This short workshop will address the process of creating an elevator speech. It will ask you to think about what problem your business solves, how you solve it, and what makes your company different.
Also, the workshop will discuss integrating your video elevator speech into your current marketing and selling efforts. The workshop will review various social media and internet outlets and suggest ways to use your elevator pitch material in these venues. Experience using your elevator pitch to help create opportunities for your business.

What attendees have said.
“WOW! Mark brought a tremendous amount of passion and energy to the discussion. As the discussion unfolded, his expertise in the area of Sales and Marketing really kept the room engaged. For me, one of the messages that really resonated was the idea of how the traditional sales cycle has changed in the digital age. Mark clearly brought the discussion to life with very insightful questions and observations.” Paul Balazs – business owner
