JOKE: The Elevator Pitch
The latest 'buzz' phrase is 'Elevator Pitch'.
Basically it's the ability to make a pitch in the most efficient and succinct matter. In other words in the time it takes to go from one floor to the next.
Even if your startup is a highly sought-after leading social media strat/tech site like BajillionHits.Biz, every young webeneur will have secure some capital from Silicon Valley Angel Investor VCs at some point in the life of their business or brand, so it's essential to master the ancient art of The Elevator Pitch.
And as we learned from the Michael Arrington/AngelGate fiasco, dealing with these money men can be a pretty tricky little bit of hustle-bustle. Luckily, I've made Elevator Pitching the subject of my latest Stratocast in order to show you how it's done. So watch and learn.
