This was awesome. I like reading your blog because it gives me great ideas for my own blog! Despite the small amount of text, I have worked hard on that pitch. The most recent change was turning it from "$1.1 million" to "$1,100,000.00." Writing it out, especially with the extra .00, makes it look bigger. Weird marketing tricks for the win. ;) Part of my new Be The Authority project is helping people craft their own elevator pitches. I also do a lot of these sorts of exercises when I speak at conferences. Having a good one is key to increasing your visitors/sales/revenue! -Erica Hi Pat,

Stories do sell, and they are definitely what grab my attention when I am reading. Erica's blog caught my attention immediately when I visited it even before coming to this blog. She's definitely a thought leader in her niche. Thanks for the information about making a story. Stories do sell, and they are definitely what grab my attention when I am reading.

I can tell that I would like to visit it because the author seems to understand the gap between professional looking results and knowing how to do it yourself and is eager to help others with step by step instructions.

I picked up a lot of useful information from everyone who submitted a description. Unfortunately I didn't catch your earlier post about submitting them or I would have participated. Maybe next time.
