What Elements Do You Need in the Perfect Elevator Pitch?
Hungry for some drama? On this episode of Entrepreneur Elevator Pitch, contestants serve up new business concepts aimed at bringing nutrition to the next level. They have the passion and the belief in their products — but will our picky panel of investors find their ideas mouth-watering or half-baked?
With so many consumers looking for tastier, healthier and easier-to-prepare food options, the market is both massive and competitive. And although it’s not easy, a new brand can still break through and become a household name with proper backing and support. Watch to see if anyone has the secret sauce that results in the phrase that all founders hope to hear: “We have a deal!”

Looking for a recipe for success on Elevator Pitch? Be sure your pitch has these vital ingredients:
- Be clear and concise. People who fail to get our investors’ attention are all over the place. Present a clear picture of your idea and your investment needs.
- Solve a problem. For a business to succeed, it needs to solve a customer problem. Don’t explain why people will want your product—explain why they need it.
- Do the math. Make sure you know all of the relevant numbers surrounding your business — costs, profit margins and the size of the market — and don’t forget to make your ask before the clock runs out!
