What is a sales pitch?

00:00:02.240 --> 00:00:04.590
When most people hear the term sales pitch,

00:00:04.599 --> 00:00:07.489
they imagine a room full of potential clients and a

00:00:07.500 --> 00:00:12.020
salesperson or sales team going through a slide show or demonstration,

00:00:12.489 --> 00:00:15.149
like Sharktank or Dragon's den.

00:00:16.430 --> 00:00:17.389
In fact,

00:00:17.399 --> 00:00:22.209
most sales people go through their sales pitch frequently, even on a daily basis.

00:00:22.430 --> 00:00:25.739
Every time you talk about your product or your company

00:00:25.750 --> 00:00:29.479
to a prospect, customer, or even a potential investor,

00:00:29.489 --> 00:00:30.860
that's a sales pitch.

00:00:31.989 --> 00:00:34.979
Whether you're on a cold call at a business mixer

00:00:34.990 --> 00:00:38.099
or just reaching out via email or social media,

00:00:39.040 --> 00:00:41.549
the focus of your sales pitch script shouldn't be

00:00:41.560 --> 00:00:45.110
about your product features or your service capabilities,

00:00:45.119 --> 00:00:50.040
instead it should cover the critical challenges you solve for your customers.

00:00:50.590 --> 00:00:53.540
You need to figure out their pain points and then tailor

00:00:53.549 --> 00:00:56.970
your sales pitch to show how you can help alleviate it.
