Imagine if you were on Dragons’ Den, how would you persuade the Dragons to invest in your product or service?
Students will need to prepare an ‘Elevator Pitch’ that’s no more than 60 seconds that explains the key features and benefits of their product or service.
Top tips
Remember your goal - What are the key features of your business and what benefits can you provide?
Explain what you do - Introduce yourselves and start your pitch by describing your product or service idea. Can you add information or a statistic to add some interest?
Communicate your USP - Show off your knowledge and enthusiasm for your product or service. What is your unique selling point (USP)?
Check the timing - The maximum time allowed is 60 seconds. Your pitch needs to be snappy and compelling so read it out loud and use a stopwatch to time how long it takes. Practice!
Your body language - Act confident, smile. Engage with your audience.
File format
The sales pitch entry must be submitted in either MP3, MP4, MOV, WMV or AVI format.
