I got this from Jeremy. The elevator pitch is similar to the drive by shooting of potential VC funding. Here’s a video to help equip you with that tool. Who knows, the next person you might be stuck in an elevator with could be your next venture capitalist.

Well, in that case you actually most likely have more than only 2 minutes but desperatly need to go sure your target person doesn’t catch you pressing the emergency stop button. Otherwise you will need all your skills to get out of that situation. And don’t try the “Sorry Mam/Sir’, but I just had to. Would you marry me, please?”-trick!
