This document contains eight template prompts for an elevator pitch. Words in [brackets] are meant to be replaced with information about yourself, your company, products, services, and/or customers. The text that exists outside of the brackets is also meant to serve as a foundation for writing your e-pitch. We encourage you to add, delete, or change any of this copy to ensure your e-pitch matches its intended audience and works with your delivery. Each template is also accompanied with an example of how it might look when it’s filled out. Feel free to take inspiration from these examples as you choose the best approach for your e-pitch. We even tested reading these aloud ourselves to make sure they could be said in 60 seconds or less. Once you’re satisfied with your e-pitch, get to memorizing! You never know when you might need to present it to an investor, a potential connection, or a prospect.
