Ep. 118 – The Business Power Pitch Deconstructed: Part 2 – The Solution

IMG_2329To be successful, your business needs to solve a problem. That problem might be something specific and logistical within a given industry, or it might be something more along the lines of addressing an anxiety in the marketplace. A great pitch is all about delivering that perfect one-two punch of a succinctly stated “problem” and “solution.”
