Taking the Elevator

Your elevator is the equipment you often use to make a starting connection between the potential client and you, therefore, they need to be able to openly relate it to their situation. It must include, who you work for, what you do, and the benefits that they can receive in a very succinct manner.

Only stating that you are a virtual assistant is an choice and may likely can bring a positive results. However, you’ll get a better reply from the people who might be intimidated by the truth that they do not know what it is, and they don’t want to feel embarrassed, if you use this elevator speech. But, if you just tell them that you’re a Virtual Assistant, these people will much likely change the topic where they are more comfortable with. Remember you want to link yourself with your potential customer and their situation.

In order for the elevator speech to work it mustn’t only be succinct but also sound very natural. In order to achieve this you have to practice by saying it out loud, not just by reading it to yourself. A good way to fine-tune your speech is to say it facing the mirror, practice with friends or family or you can leave it in your voice mail. Do you think you sound confident? Do you think it needed to be changed? Practice until you get it right and smooth.

Here are some examples.
