For example, the elevator pitch. It's just now, thanks to the internet, we are more likely to count in words or characters than seconds. On a similar note is the story hook: developing a simple sentence that compels the reader to keep going. In a way, it's a very transferable skill :)<br /><br />Take care!<br /><br />//RRainyhttp://www.rainyofthedark.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5965810798189514255.post-18743663984041748632011-05-12T07:37:10.354-07:002011-05-12T07:37:10.354-07:00Thanks, Rainy.

That pitch is so important isn't it? 140 characters says so much about a project and to think that we can easily turn off a potential reader with more is quite disheartening. <br /><br />CJ xxAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5965810798189514255.post-45677961798224992252011-04-11T13:59:12.381-07:002011-04-11T13:59:12.381-07:00Thanks a lot.

I wanted to add that this pitch should only be about 30 words long. I have often seen people attempting to pitch with a run-on sentence, which makes the customer less likely to buy, and more likely to slap.<br /><br />Take care,<br /><br />//RainyRainyhttp://www.rainyofthedark.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5965810798189514255.post-87708109622170022152010-12-30T18:50:36.301-08:002010-12-30T18:50:36.301-08:00Good advice, thanks for the tips!Good advice, thanks for the tips!Trishahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16927558937796802496noreply@blogger.com
