Elevator Pitch No. 3

2) Biggest and most common critique last time was that I needed to practice more because my last pitch lacked a certain professional attitude. I rehearsed many times before recording this one, however, I am a little sick and I think it sounded a tad more robotic this time. I agree my last pitch was too ill prepared, however, I did it in an elevator and had to be quicker because elevators are fast,a and in the event of a literal elevator pitch you aren't going to be able to bust out a scripted version of your idea. Some people also said my app was good which I agree with.

3) I rehearsed a ton this time. I wrote out a script and read it and tried repeated it many times without looking. I also changed some words to help my speech flow better. However, to me, this pitch sounded a little too much like I was reading off of a script so I need to find a balance.

  1. Collin,
    I REALLY like your app idea. I did not think you sounded sick or robotic. It seemed to me that the words you spoke came out very fluid. You definitely prepared for this one because it seemed like you knew what you were saying, and you said it with a purpose and conviction, which made me feel confident in your idea.
    Overall, well done.

  3. Collin,
    Great app idea it seems similar to uber but for maids. I'm curious as to what it would take to become a cleaner because I'm sure many people would not trust random strangers cleaning their rooms. I do think this idea can go very far great post check out my blog:http://rtcgator.blogspot.com/2016/03/elevator-pitch-no3.html

  4. Hi Collin,
    I think this is a great idea for an app, and I applaud you for practicing multiple times. What I did was type out my speech on Word, then open up my webcam, and when I started recording, I switched to the document so I could discreetly read my pitch. This would help with camera shakiness.
    Otherwise, great job and here's a link to mine: http://maursfirstblog.blogspot.com/2016/03/elevator-pitch-no-3.html
