Elevator Pitch Coaching

Project details

What we need
  • Document outlining feedback on pitch delivery with suggested next steps and/or resources
  • A script for a 1-minute verbal pitch that communicates your Organization's mission, work, and why people should care
Additional details

Looking to simplify and clarify the messaging we are using to describe the work we do, or mission and be able to provide a pitch to anyone that will excite them about our organization.

What we have in place
  • We currently have a mission statement and vision, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have our website of www.dahoodconnect.org, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $2,397 , allowing us to use other funds for general operating expenses and marketing.

When we are looking to recruit volunteers, supporters and community members we serve they can have a clear understanding of what we do and are aiming to do.
