MAIN INSIGHT

KEY TAKEAWAYS

2. Brainstorm ways that your company is different. Put yourself in the shoes of people receiving the message -- what was it that caused them to give you the time of day?
3. Create a 60-second pitch or less that explains who you are, what you do, and how your product is different from what's typically out there.
