**Entrepreneurs- Here is why you need to have a solid pitch
Being an entrepreneur with an innovative idea requires you to be “Pitch Ready” at any point. You never know when anyone seems to be curious about your business or you find an ideal point of contact with any investor.
Conversations can be random, at dinner with extended family, while out with friends or at a meeting. Sharing your idea with them is the pitch. Every entrepreneur needs to be mindful and start the conversation at the right moment.
Now while you pitch your idea, make sure it does not turn out to be one amongst the many which go unheard. Be mindful about your surrounding and keep certain points in mind, before you make your move.
Here is a checklist to help you improvise:
Problem & Solution: In order to sell your solution, the foremost thing you need to do is, make people believe there exists a problem. Once they are convinced that this problem requires a solution, you can present your solution. Also mention how exactly the solution caters to the problem.
Key Points: What are the key features of your product that you want to highlight? Take note of them and make sure they are presented distinctly in your speech.
The Audience: Depending on the people you are conversing with, you should know how will they influence your idea and help it grow. For an instance, when we talk about iShoutnow (An application that lets customers discover real time deals, discounts and offers available around them. It also lets merchants Shout Out their offers to customers) Identify whether the person you are talking to is a customer or a merchant. Firstly, understand their abilities of influencing your product and pitch in compliance.
Over and over again: Make a habit of talking about your product often. Also practice in person. It will only help you get better.
Your entrepreneurial idea can reach places only with a little bit of added enthusiasm and perfection.
