Product Description

Whether you're at a business event or a social function, what's the most common question asked by someone you've just met? What do you do? Those four words represent a golden opportunity for you to market yourself. But here's the catch: In most cases you have just a few seconds to get your message across and engage your listener's interest. How do you do that? With an elevator speech.

5.0 out of 5 stars Everyone needs a commercial -- this shows you how!, September 2, 2006
By T. Wippel (Edmonds, WA USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Lorraine has captured -- in a short, easy-to-read 44 pages -- the most effective way to talk about yourself when time is of the essence! Never again be intimated when someone asks the dreaded question: So, what DO you do?
