Editor’s note: Continuing our mission to help area entrepreneurs and startups grow, we’re happy to share with you a video from our friends at Kansas City-based tech agency Crema. Learn more about the agency here. 


Crema co-founder George Brooks and Crema product strategist Eric Hurst jump into the topic of crafting an eloquent and effective elevator pitch.

For those unfamiliar, an “elevator pitch” is a concise way of describing your product. In this video, the duo walks you through an exercise Crema uses to help its clients discover their pitch. It’s not just for pitching investors, it’s great for keeping your team focused.
