		<description>Hi Kivi,

I enjoyed your post on writing an elevator speech.  I especially like your process and thought it was to the point. Congratulations!

I just made a post on crafting an elevator speech. I use a three-step process that follows a problem/solution/referral method that works for virtually any situation.  Perhaps you can give a a try and let me know how it works for you.

I appreciate your feedback.

Best regards,

Glenn Andrew

		<description>[...] 3) Make sure all staff and board members can nail your elevator pitch. Your staff and board members should be able to very clearly and very briefly describe the value of your work and exactly what it is you do. This is NOT memorizing your mission statement. It&#8217;s explaining who you are, what you do, and why you do it in three-four short sentences. Here are my tips on writing your nonprofit elevator speech. [...]</description>

		<description>I am currently involved in fleshing out the development side of a growing animal rescue group in Atlanta.  Of course communications and PR plays a huge role in this endeavor.  The advice offered here is wonderful.  I think it helps to create a succint, statement that provides a good foundation for a call to action.  Thanks!</description>
