My Killer Elevator Speech Done From a Small Generator as I Have no Power!

By
Home Stager with Elite Staging and Redesign, LLC

My Killer Elevator Speech Done From a Small Generator as I Have no Power! Let this be a lesson to not wait until the last minute before entering an Active Rain contest!

The scene is I've just stepped onto an elevator with a stranger. To make small talk they casually ask, "So what do you do?" Now I've got my one miniute opportunity to sell them on my home staging services....


I prepare homes for sale in this tough market by transforming them into a buyer’s dream, making them stand out from the competition.  I give your home that competitive edge using proven design techniques that will make it appeal to the masses by updating, decluttering and neutralizing the space while highlighting its architectural features! My goal is to add value and appeal to your North Jersey home so it sells quickly and for top dollar.

With a background in photography, I take professional MLS photos, showcasing your home in its best possible light and send them to your Realtor the same day for their marketing use. This is so important when 95% of buyers start their search on line. You only have 90 seconds to make a great first impression, driving buyers straight to your door.  Elite Staging transforms your home into an inviting and desirable space where buyers can picture themselves living. We excel at getting your home sold quickly so you can move on with the next phase of your life!    


Now I'm handing them my card.........because they've asked for it - my job is done!

Thought about you all day.  Here's to hoping you have your power back.  I was checking to see if you had mentioned. it.  I had to laugh when I saw your reply to Roger...  works well under pressure.  I swear I do my best work under pressure.  Comes from my newspaper deadline days I think.

KG--I can totally hear you saying this in your spitfire manner, being honest, compelling and charming all at the same time without pushing. You didn't even need a video to make it work for me.

Power on, girl!  (And I don't mean a generator!)

Hi Kristine,

Great job!  Now you have to make sure that you always have a few before and after pictures on your phone with you.  The pictures say it all.

I'm sure most of us would love to be stuck in an elevator with you. You are a beautiful, sincere and talented woman with the ability to make a good impression in a very short period of time - less than 90 seconds. :) Glad you took part in the contest - and you're lucky I don't live closer - I'd be nagging you to do a video.

Add value and appeal. Though lots of great words are in your post, these are the two that really stand out to me. And probably to the folks who need your services.

Meems - thank you so much and I really listened to how you described what an elevator speech really is and since writing it and memorizing it, I feel so much more confident to answer the question: What do you do? Not only was the contest fun, but it will be come in handy on a daily basis and that is a very worthy contest! 

Thanks for all your hard work and effort - I'm sure it wan't easy with all the entrants! Have a great weekend and we need to catch up very soon!
