Default Re: Having trouble with "30 second" elevator
Stephanie, you've made some great points there.

Lindsay, your website homepage looks great and, as Stephanie said, it's a great starting point for your elevator speech.

Just remember to keep the emotion in there. Just look deep inside yourself and ask yourself, "Why do I want to be a VA? Why do I believe I can benefit this person?"

One bit of homework that my mentor got me to do was to think about my Vision (Where I want to go. What I want to see. What I really want for my customers), my Mission (What I do. What my business goals are) and my Purpose (My calling - e.g. my creativity. What's my driver? Where do I get my buzz from?)

This has really helped me to get my business objectives in focus and to put some emotion - my emotion - my heart & soul - into my business.

Hope this helps.

Regards,

Jason
