How many times have you missed an opportunity when you are waiting for a lift or have got into a lift and you find yourself in general chit chat mode with the other person, and then they ask the crucial question, " so what do you do?" Now depending how tall your building is you have anywhere from 15,30 to 45 seconds to engage and let your potential business contact know all about your business, hence short introductions such as these are also known as elevator speeches.
You want people to ask you more about what you do, so having a short intro, makes them curious and want to know more.
You have about 30 seconds maybe longer to say what it is you do succinctly and be sure to have your business card to hand before that elevator door opens....
Tips:
You may want to start with your name and your company, then a brief one liner about your business. Think of something that will get people to engage with you and ask you more.
So we want to hear some of the funniest business intro's you have heard...leave them in the comments box below.
To your continued success!
