Do you struggle introducing yourself in 30 seconds or less?


The elevator pitch can be challenging for most…

-you share too little by just giving your title

-you justify who you are with a list prior work and accolades

-you speak in jargon that says nothing substantial

-you ramble on about all the ways you improve lives

-Or sometimes you just freeze hoping the floor will open up and swallow you whole.


Yes, making a strong first impression means connections, opportunities, and more - and in reality, people don't buy what you do, they’re engaged by WHY you do it.


Instead of a speaker, this month, we’re cracking the code of the elevator pitch - as a group mastermind.


Key Take Away:

There are 5 ‘hot seats’ available, each of whom will get 5 minutes to share their pitch and get input from the group. The best part of a mastermind is that everyone wins. Even if you are not one of the ‘hot seats’, you’ll benefit from the input and experience of everyone in the room. This is a win, win, win environment.


Do you want to improve your elevator pitch?


Snag a hot seat or come be a participant. Either way, you’ll leave practical, implementable ways to more confidently (and succinctly) share who you are and what you do.


There are three ways to snag a ‘hot seat’.

The first two people who sign up are guaranteed a spot.

Sponsors are guaranteed a spot.

Any spots not taken will be put into a business card drawing at the meeting.


If you go to networking events, this meeting is for you!
