MenuWhat is the best elevator pitch for a website that houses employee productivity tools?
This platform is helpful for sales teams, HR dept as well as educational institutions. Should we focus on only one vertical..say sales teams and then introduce other verticals. For sales team our coaching/ role play app is ideal to evaluate sales reps knowledge and ensure they pitch in the right way.

It's best to define your initial MVP's persona as narrowly as possible, and learn from your tests (initially small scale) to make it work well for them, and only then expand to other verticals if necessary.
It sounds like you think it will work best for sales teams, so start there, get some data on its effectiveness / demand, and tweak it so it works really well. Then you can build from there.
If you'd like to discuss best ways to run initial testing with your specific product send me a message, I'd be glad to help out.
"Negotiation Begins with your Elevator Pitch" is the title of a training/development class written by Mims Morning Meeting. This class explains how to develop an elevator pitch that accomplishes it's missions.
Your Elevator Speech is looking for one thing and one thing only. It is looking for the YES. It is not what you SAY–It is what they HEAR in an elevator pitch that matters. What Do You Do? Is the first question on the minds of all that seek? The response and the tone you provide will dictate the direction, scope of connection and level of encroachment you will have with these new union. The four S'es of a great elevator pitch are Story, Solution, Skills and Service. The story is the creditable, the solution is the clarification, the skill is the casting and the service is the character. Words that make a powerful elevator pitch are the key to building that best elevator pitch.
Call us to appreciate how "Negotiation Begins with your Elevator Pitch" will help you achieve those goals and set new ones. Thank You from Mims Morning Meeting, LLC by Frank Mims V.

How do I approach a business with an idea?
Really good question. You can do it via one of three ways: 1) Provisional Patent. if an implementation of their system to his new market would be patentable (i.e. using machine X to make donuts instead of jewelry), then you could file a provisional patent on the idea. Provisional patents are very informal and cheap. They can essentially be written on the back of a napkin, and filed for ~$100. They last for only a year, after which you have to convert them into a 'real patent', otherwise your idea will become open to the public to use. 2) An NDA. You could have them sign a non-disclosure agreement (NDA), which would have wording in it that basically says, "I'm going to tell you something, and unless you have existing proof that you already had thought of that idea, then you're not allowed to use my idea without my consent". Sometimes the company will not want to sign an NDA because they may have discussed a lot of ideas without writing them down, and by signing your NDA, they'd legally lose the right to use one of those non-written-down ideas. But it's worth a shot. 3) Rely on trust. The way to make this more likely to work is if you are good friends with a big investor in their company, or something like that. Some situation in which, if they steal your idea, they'd be ruining their reputation with someone they care about (they probably don't care about pissing you yourself off). If you don't have such a connection, maybe you can form one through linkedin. If you'd like to discuss any of this further let me know, all the best, LeeLV

How important is a polished/pretty prototype to pitch an idea to potential customers and/or investors? I'm using this as a means to support my pitch.
It depends how clear your idea value is without it, or with a rough one, or mock ups vs polished. There are a few goals you are trying to conquer with a prototype, overall its about concept clarity and valuation. 1. customer/investor acceptance: "i want that" 2. customer feedback: "you should change that" 3. investor valuation: "wow, you are that far along" vs "its just an idea" Without more details only you know what it will take to get the right clarity to the customer and investors to answers on above.BS

Is a Software Services startup still a good idea?
Trust me ..It is a blood bath... Sites like freelancer have already capitalized the labor arbitrage business model.. I joined 2 groups but lacked motivation when it The only way it would work is 1) Get higher in value chain - Management consulting , roadmaps etc. The labor arbitrage still works there .. 2) Cutting edge and non-commodity services like IoT, Cloud, Hardware 3) Niche technology like NLP (natural language processing), Machine Learning, Computer Vision etc.. Please don't start another website development company using PHP , net .. The world do not need one more.. You still want to start, better have a behance portfolio that is killer quality .. QUALITY IS NEVER CHEAP !!! Need help in exploring option, feel free to place a call.. and if can'tr afford $, let me know.. will arrange a 30 free call..NJ

Hi, Your question is super long, not 100% clear, and your attitude is negative. Not the best approach if you need assistance from people.

I'm happy to give you a free 15 minute call to try understand your needs and your products/services. After the initial call, if I have any valuable advice, we can schedule another short paid call. I've successfully helped over 300 entrepreneurs and would be happy to try and help you. Be positive, positive things will come to you. Good luckAB
