Having proper financing is extremely important when starting a new business. Oftentimes, businesses will fail simply because there was not enough capital at the beginning. One way to raise money for a business venture is to approach investors. Since many investors are extremely busy, savvy business owners will have an elevator pitch ready at all times. Pick any business that you like and frequent often. Write a 150-word elevator pitch that will entice investors to give you money. Make sure that your elevator pitch is concise and creates interest quickly. Have fun and be creative.
