Pitching Your Sales Ideas: Do’s and Don’ts.
October 20th, 2007 by The Money Moose
Remarkable Communication has recently posted (an excellent and humorous) article about what you should and shouldn’t do with “elevator pitches.”
Apparently, here’s what’s bad:
“Here’s a widely distributed formula. Everyone has heard it. For most purposes, it sucks.
‘For target customers who are dissatisfied with the current alternative, our magnificent product is a breathtaking new category that provides kickass problem-solving opportunity. Unlike lameass competitor, we have assembled mind-blowing product features. We will initially target the specific victims, since they unique problem they couldn’t resolve if you plated it with titanium and sent it to them FedEx. Our freakishly excellent solution solves this problem by vaporizing the problem into infinitesimal molecules of solved-ness.’”
Lets see just how effective that is.
“For humor-parody-satire-business-money-finance blog readers who are dissatified with current humor-parody-satire-business-money-finance blogs, our blog, MoneyMoose, is on a whole other level that can help you become the richest person in the world. Unlike… uh… other humor-parody-satire-business-money-finance blogs, we provide sarcasm, bad advice, humor, and moose (mooses? meese? mice?). MoneyMoose will initially target humor-parody-satire-business-money-finance blog readers over the age of 90 and under the age of 4 because they either cannot read or have no internet access. Our… uh… magic solves this problem by magically making this blog magical.”
How could you not want to read this blog now?

I am sold! I will give you one million dollars in venture capital to invest in additional satire infrastructure! We will rule the world. Or the Internet. If there’s any difference.
