Elevator Pitch No. 3

Reflection: My pitch remained somewhat similar to the format of my last pitch, but I changed a few things as well as the overall pacing in response to the feedback I got on pitch number 2. One person suggested I include a statistic in my introduction to further cement the idea that the issue I discuss affects most Americans, which I agree made the pitch more enticing. I also refrained from giving my name in the initial grabber based on another person's input, which I think also aided the overall flow of the pitch. Lastly, I tried slowing down my pitch to add more emphasis on what I was conveying rather than move quickly to get all the information in, which I hope means people can understand what my idea is better rather than be bombarded with less useful information. Thank you all for the feedback!

    Hi Phillip. Watching your elevator pitch, especially due to your use of actual facts and statistics, it was clear to me that you were very knowledgable about the opportunity you are trying to exploit. You were calm and composed, and the pitch was slow enough for people to understand clearly, but not too slow that people lose their interest. Great work.

Bug List

1. Maintenance requests at my apartment complex take a while to be serviced. Why:  There are only a few maintenance technicians at the complex to save on costs, so these workers must handle a lot of requests individually. 2. Many people park at my complex who do not live there, making it challenging to find a convenient parking spot. Why:  My complex does not use a decal system to vet parked cars, and the lot is conveniently located to take the bus to school, so many students park here in transit to UF. 3. On game days, transportation via ride-servicing apps is expensive and unreliable. Why:  With the sudden increase in out-flowing traffic following a football game, there are too many customers hailing cars for the driver base to satisfy, causing an increase in price and rarity of rides. 4. There is no definite way to prevent package theft from my porch, so I'm always worried when I order something on Amazon or a family member gets something for me. Why:  I...

Elevator Pitch No. 2

Link to Pitch:   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KIyqe7DXOOs Reflection:  I did not receive any comment feedback on my last elevator pitch, but I did try and utilize more of Professor Pryor's strategies in my second pitch to be less mechanical and more engaging. I added more of a grabber in the first part of the pitch by asking the listener about their own financial struggles, and then stated that most Americans face this issue, showing the listener that they are not alone and that there is a solution. I also added an "ask" at the end of the pitch to meet the listener at a different time for 30 minutes to go more in-depth into the product.
