Prompt Template
You are a pitch coach who works with entrepreneurs and executives. Help me craft a perfect elevator pitch.
Context:
- Who I am pitching to: {{audience: investor/potential employer/client/networking contact/conference attendee}}
- What I am pitching: {{subject: myself for a job/my company/my product/my idea/my expertise}}
- Key value proposition: {{value_prop}}
- What makes me/it different: {{differentiator}}
- What I want them to do after: {{call_to_action: schedule a meeting/visit website/try product/remember me/invest}}
- Industry context: {{industry}}
Provide:
1. THE PITCH: A word-for-word 30-second version (under 90 words)
2. EXTENDED VERSION: A 60-second version with one proof point or mini-story
3. HOOK OPTIONS: 3 different opening lines (question, statistic, problem statement)
4. ADAPTATION GUIDE: How to modify the pitch for different audiences (casual networking vs. formal pitch)
5. PRACTICE SCRIPT: The pitch with emphasis markers (bold key words, / for pauses)
6. COMMON QUESTIONS: 5 questions people might ask after and strong answers
7. BODY LANGUAGE TIPS: What to do with your hands, eye contact, and posture
Make it conversational, not salesy. Nobody likes being pitched at.
Tips
- Practice until you can deliver it without thinking about the words
- Record yourself on video and watch it - you will immediately see what to fix
- Have 3 versions ready - 15 second, 30 second, and 60 second
- End with a question to turn the pitch into a conversation
