1)Elevator pitch #2
https://youtu.be/QzOcTcFXJFI

2) I did not get a lot of feedback besides a statement that the person that watched the pitch enjoyed me presenting and having good eye contact.

3) I changed the environment this time and tried to sell it better with more active body language and more intense eye contact. Also, I tried making the pain point for the potential customer greater, by adding more cons if the person does not buy the product. In addition, I made put a little more detail, love, and more tries into this attachment. I felt more comfortable foing this second one and I even enjoyed it a lot.

    Hello Steve,
    I think it was really interesting that you decided to change the background to your elevator pitch as it tends to peak the audience's interest more in what you are saying. I could feel your energy and passion for your business concept and I think that you did an excellent job discussing the problem that is being experienced and how your product aims to solve this problem. Including statistics emphasizing how long students really spend on their phone gives credibility to you and shows the audience the seriousness of this issue. The eye contact is very important in establishing a connection with your audience and I think you did a great job in utilizing prior feedback to improve your elevator pitch this go-around. Great job!

    Hey Steve,
    This was a fantastic pitch. You were very convincing and laid out the problem at hand clearly which made the need for your product easy to understand. The nonverbal communication you showed made your pitch that much more convincing and I was engaged the entire time. Finally, by walking up and throwing your sunglasses you caught my attention right away. This caused me to listen to the entire pitch without ever being bored or uninterested. Great job!

    Good afternoon Steven,
    There was a lot of enthusiasm and energy in your elevator pitch. I have a lot to learn from you, as you have a lot of confidence when put on the spot and you are able to keep the audience's attention. I was hooked to your pitch the entire time and didn't get distracted. You provided the audience with many hand gestures and different ways for the audience to understand your pitch. This was a great improvement of your first elevator pitch, as I feel it was perfect. Great work!

3A – Your Entrepreneurship Story

Image
My cousin created a software program about a year ago. It is very difficult having to build software, coming up with a business plan, creating a budgeting plan, establishing a marketing strategy, and searching for potential investors on your own. That’s why I am currently supporting my cousin and taking some work off his shoulder. I am mainly focusing on describing the target audience as best as I can, and I am putting a marketing plan together. I am also working on the most important social media platforms for the company. Entrepreneurship is constant work and there are always new obstacles to overcome. But for me, it seems like the biggest challenge is to get the ball rolling in the first place and starting something. Once there is progress the motion keeps ongoing. Just like newton’s first law of motion states,” An object at rest will stay at rest and an object in motion will continue to move at a constant speed in its original direction unless acted upon by...

Inbound Marketing What was the general theme or argument of the book?  In general, the book  Inbound Marketing , by Brian Halligan, talks about how to generate leads on the internet. The main topics are SEO, Blogging, Social Media and other tools for building your brand.      How did the book, in your opinion, connect with and enhance what you are learning in ENT 3003?

Setting up all accounts and just starting to create content on them. In addition, a bonus to this exercise would be getting in touch with people in the same indus...
