Craft The Perfect 45 Second Elevator Story;


Imagine being at a networking event or on a sales call and being asked the following question:

“So, what do you do?”

In this very moment, you or your sales team are faced with 2 options:

Option 1: Pitch slap your prospect and instantly dehumanise the conversation.

Option 2: Spark curiosity, create intrigue and have your prospects wanting to learn more.
