1.) For the first elevator pitch, I thought that was really good. Overall I think you showed enthusiasm and emphasized the key problems. 2.) Specifically I liked the three examples you provided in the beginning. Yankee Stadium, circle around the globe, and US statistics because it was very catchy. 3.) I think you repeated yourself just a little too much. Instead of repeating what you said in the beginning, at the end, maybe switch and talk about the market you plan to hit.
It is a great presentation. You managed to build my interest with the practical facts at the beginning of the presentation. I think the catch is the imagination of straws filling up a stadium and contribution of US waste to that of the whole world. Those facts puts into perspective the extent of the problem. The fact that we don't know where the straws end after use demonstrates the extent of the problem. It is a nice pitch, I liked it. I think in the future you should clarify further how you can keep the straw clean to prevent growth of pathogenic organisms around it.
Charles, I absolutely love the energy and voice projection that was used during your elevator pitch. That is something that makes you seem confident about the product you are talking about and it will increase the amount of people that are interested in what you’re saying. Do however, slow down just a tad bit. Speaking fast shows that you’re either nervous or that you have some other place to be. Other than that, great job with the assignment!
Hey CJ, So very good job on your first elevator pitch! I found it very tough to do my own and had to retake it at least 20 times I struggled with awkwardness too but you pulled it off well! You hit on a lot of great statistics that could help pique interest on your topics and the actual solution of having a straw holder in your phone is a unique idea that could potentially work. You could do like a slot for the straw and have the straw be extendable so you could reduce the size of the straw and extend it for when you need to use it.
