Thanks to scarily perceptive Louise Kelly who was at my Blackwells event last night, for reminding me that I said I'd post the link to the fab YouTube video about elevator pitches. Below.
I think that we need to do some bloggy work on pitches so be ready for some advice from me next week. And the chance for you to try out your own pitches on this blog. Don't pitch them yet, please - just get them brushed up and I'll tell you what to do next week.

Nothing can beat The Player on pitches.
Look forward to pitching next week - and maybe a little yawing
Very good. I can see how staying reasonably calm would be a good thing.
Hilarious video! Also really helpful. I think even just saying "...if you have a minute" is a good lead in. No sense in telling an agent your pitch while he/she is thinking "Shut up, I'm late to my meeting!"
Dan - ;)
Patsy and Annie - yup!
Just fell off my chair laughing at the video whilst at the same trying to swallow a mouthful of tea!!!
Please Great Pumpkin, never let me be like that, but if I am, please never let me know!
I wouldn't even be able to do the bad ones. I think I'll stick to the stairs!
Hmm. Currently mine's not so much an elevator pitch, more your clapped-out Stannah stairlift job...
Margaret - ha!
Miriam - not being able to do it face to face is fine for now but the inmportant bit is the written one.
