The purpose of the sales pitch is to convince the lead to buy your product, sign up for your service, believe your argument, or progress to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hellosells.com\/resources\/what-is-a-sales-pipeline\/\">next step in your sales pipeline<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Remember, a sales pitch is part of a conversation. A great sales pitch is not just a one-size-fits-all statement that you recite to whoever you can buttonhole into listening.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>To be successful, a sales pitch has to be based on a genuine understanding of the prospect and an alignment of goals between buyer and seller.<\/p>\n<h2>Types of sales pitches<\/h2>\n<p>A sales pitch can take many forms.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>You may deliver your sales pitch verbally, in person or on a phone call. The pitch may include a slide deck or other visual aides. The pitch could be thorough and detailed, or it could be just a few sentences\u2014the classic \u201celevator pitch.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The important thing is to use a pitch that fits the conversation you\u2019re having with the lead.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, you should develop a few different versions of your sales pitch, so you always have something appropriate to the situation at hand.<\/p>\n<p>Here are a few examples of sales pitch types.<\/p>\n<h3>Elevator pitch<\/h3>\n<p>The elevator pitch gets its name from the idea that the salesperson would be trying to deliver their message in the short time it takes an elevator to travel from one floor to another.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, you could just as easily be using this type of pitch on a phone call or while seated comfortably face to face.<\/p>\n<p>The point is to boil down your pitch to just a couple of sentences\u2014or maybe even less!<\/p>\n<p>Creating this concise, pithy version of your pitch has a couple of benefits.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>First, it respects your prospect\u2019s time, and acknowledges the resistance many people have to being pitched.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Second, it helps you focus on the core of your argument and value proposition.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>While an elevator pitch is an important part of your toolbox, it may not be the easiest pitch to create first. An elevator pitch\u2019s brevity comes from the hard work of distilling ideas and getting to the fundamental message.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Rather than starting with this, it may be easier to begin with a longer pitch and cut parts away until you have your elevator version.<\/p>\n<h3>Slide deck pitch<\/h3>\n<p>When you have the opportunity to make a more formal, lengthy presentation, you\u2019ll probably want to develop a slide deck pitch.<\/p>\n<p>Your slide deck\u2014which you can create with Microsoft Powerpoint, Apple Keynote, Google Slides, or another application\u2014gives you a few opportunities to develop your pitch.<\/p>\n<p>First, you can include more content, and go into more detail, in the slide deck. But don\u2019t take this as a license to ramble! It\u2019s always important to focus on what\u2019s most important when making a sales pitch.<\/p>\n<p>Second, you can leverage graphics to make your pitch more compelling and easier to understand. This might include simple data visualizations, photography, or just some appealing typography and layout.<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t forget to include your contact information on the last slide. You want to make it easy for your prospects to follow up with you.<\/p>\n<p>For more on what to include in your deck, check out the Parts of a sales pitch section below.<\/p>\n<h3>Slide deck pitch<\/h3>\n<p>When you have the opportunity to make a more formal, lengthy presentation, you\u2019ll probably want to develop a slide deck pitch.<\/p>\n<p>Your slide deck\u2014which you can create with Microsoft Powerpoint, Apple Keynote, Google Slides, or another application\u2014gives you a few opportunities to develop your pitch.<\/p>\n<p>First, you can include more content, and go into more detail, in the slide deck.

You want to make it easy for your prospects to follow up with you.<\/p>\n<p>For more on what to include in your deck, check out the Parts of a sales pitch section below.<\/p>\n<h3>Subject line pitch<\/h3>\n<p>Email is an important component of many <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hellosells.com\/resources\/articles\/how-to-build-and-manage-your-sales-pipeline\/\">sales pipelines<\/a>. Create a version of your pitch (or multiple versions) short and punchy enough to serve as an email subject line.<\/p>\n<p>Remember, while the contents of the body of your email do matter, no one will see them if they don\u2019t open the email. That\u2019s where the subject line comes in.<\/p>\n<p>There are at least two schools of thought when it comes to writing this kind of subject line sales pitch. You can either go for utility or mystery.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>A subject line focused on what your product or service can do for the prospect is clearer and more direct. If your message resonates with the lead, and addresses a genuine need, they\u2019re likely to open your message and read on.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, a little mystery in your subject line can arouse your prospect\u2019s curiosity. They may not know exactly what you\u2019re going to tell them, but your subject line makes them want to find out.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Either way, as with the elevator sales pitch, you don\u2019t have much space to work with. Make every word count! And try different versions to see which is most effective.<\/p>\n<h3>Story pitch<\/h3>\n<p>A sales pitch based on story can be a powerful way to hook your prospects. A story pitch can stand on its own or be incorporated into another format, such as a slide deck.<\/p>\n<p>Stories appeal to emotions rather than logic. And while statistics and reasoned arguments have their place, many people make their decisions from the gut.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>With a story, you can give your prospect a vision of their future\u2014a future where they\u2019re your customer. You can put them in the shoes of a happy customer and let them walk around.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>One thing to keep in mind when creating your story pitch\u2014you are not the hero. Neither is your company. Instead, write the story to make your prospect the hero. Tell the story from their perspective.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Social media pitch<\/h3>\n<p>Social media platforms such as LinkedIn, Facebook, and Instagram can be great places to connect with leads and pitch your product or services to them.<\/p>\n<p>To create a successful social media sales pitch, you need to get familiar with the particular platform you want to use. Of course, you should choose the one(s) where your prospects are. Discovering that may take some experimentation, but the potential payoff is high.<\/p>\n<p>Each social media platform is a bit different. They have different character limits for written messages, and different default dimensions for shared images. Beyond that, different platforms have different audiences, and the types of messages that work on one platform may fall flat on another.<\/p>\n<p>In general, social media is highly visual, with limited text. So your social media pitch will probably be closer to your elevator pitch version than anything else, with a carefully selected image to complement the words.<\/p>\n<p>As with any pitch you post online, make sure you are prepared to measure the impact. This might mean using platform analytics to see engagement or shares, or it might mean checking your website analytics to see how many people came to your site from the post.<\/p>\n<h2>Parts of a great sales pitch<\/h2>\n<p>Building a great sales pitch isn\u2019t hard. The six elements below will help you put your pitch together.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>As we saw above, you will probably want to create different versions of your sales pitch for different purposes. Each version may not include all six elements. Pick and choose what works for your situation. For example, your social media pitch may just be an image and one other element, such as a story or value proposition, along with a call to action.<\/p>\n<h3>Image<\/h3>\n<p>A good image can help grab your prospect\u2019s attention and give them a sense of what you\u2019re all about.<\/p>\n<p>Build a collection of appropriate images for the cover slide in a sales deck, the body of an email, or your social media posts.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Value proposition<\/h3>\n<p>Your value proposition is basically a statement of what you can do for your prospect. Why should they care what you have to say? What\u2019s in it for them? How will your product or service make their life better?<\/p>\n<p>Often, this can be expressed in a single sentence: [your company] helps [customer] with [product or services] so they can [benefits].<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t forget the benefits! You may think it\u2019s obvious why your services are valuable. To connect with a prospect, though, you need to break out of that. How will your offerings&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Story<\/h3>\n<p>When you have the opportunity to make a more formal, lengthy presentation, you\u2019ll probably want to develop a slide deck pitch.<\/p>\n<p>Your slide deck\u2014which you can create with Microsoft Powerpoint, Apple Keynote, Google Slides, or another application\u2014gives you a few opportunities to develop your pitch.<\/p>\n<p>First, you can include more content, and go into more detail, in the slide deck. But don\u2019t take this as a license to ramble! It\u2019s always important to focus on what\u2019s most important when making a sales pitch.<\/p>\n<p>Second, you can leverage graphics to make your pitch more compelling and easier to understand. This might include simple data visualizations, photography, or just some appealing typography and layout.<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t forget to include your contact information on the last slide. You want to make it easy for your prospects to follow up with you.<\/p>\n<p>For more on what to include in your deck, check out the Parts of a sales pitch section below.<\/p>\n<h3>Subject line pitch<\/h3>\n<p>While a solid value proposition is important, a story can really bring your pitch to life.<\/p>\n<p>Rather than just telling your lead what you can do for them, you can show them\u2014with a story.<\/p>\n<p>The story should focus on a hero\u2014the customer. Let your prospect see themselves in the hero. Walk them through the hero\u2019s journey of struggling with a problem, finding a solution, and entering a new phase with real benefits.<\/p>\n<p>In a way, you\u2019re giving your lead a vision of an alternate future for themselves\u2014the one they\u2019ll live if they choose to work with you.<\/p>\n<p>Ideally, you can get the details of this story from the experience of real customers you\u2019ve already guided through it.<\/p>\n<h3>Solutions<\/h3>\n<p>Stories appeal to people\u2019s emotions. To complete the pitch and drive the message home, you can outline the solutions you offer\u2014the same ones your story illustrated.<\/p>\n<p>When describing solutions, stay focused on the prospect\u2019s problems. If you aren\u2019t sure what their problems are, ask them! Your pitch will be much more powerful when it addresses people\u2019s real pain points.<\/p>\n<p>Take the benefits you mentioned in your value proposition statement. Then, make a connection between the solutions you offer and the benefits your prospects will receive when they become your customer.<\/p>\n<h3>Evidence<\/h3>\n<p>People have many ways to get information about your company, your products or services, and your competitors. They don\u2019t have to rely on you or take your word for it.<\/p>\n<p>Instead, buyers today look at online reviews, testimonials, independent research, and the opinions of people they know and trust.<\/p>\n<p>You simply can\u2019t control where and how people find out about you. But you can offer your prospects evidence that you can deliver what you say you will.<\/p>\n<p>Ask your customers for reviews. If you\u2019re doing your job, these positive reviews will be powerful social proof of what you can do. Make sure your website and social media platforms display this kind of evidence.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s another way to give your prospects unbiased information about you\u2014a free trial. This kind of offer lets the prospect experience what you can do for them first-hand.<\/p>\n<p>Obviously, there is a cost associated with providing your service for free. But acquiring and converting leads always costs something. If you\u2019re confident in what you do, giving your leads a taste of it can be among the most powerful pitches you can make.<\/p>\n<h3>Call to action<\/h3>\n<p>Without a call to action, your pitch won\u2019t have the impact you\u2019re looking for. You may persuade your prospects that you\u2019re the right solution to their problems, but unless you give them a clear next step to take, they still may drift away and out of your pipeline.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Depending on your process and the version of your pitch you\u2019re creating, this call to action may be to call a sales line, register with a web form, or sign up for a mailing list. Whatever the call to action is, make sure you can track how many people take it. And make sure you know how this action will lead them closer to conversion.<\/p>\n<h2>Consultative sales pitches<\/h2>\n<p>One final thought on creating a great sales pitch\u2014aim to consult, not just sell your product.<\/p>\n<p>What does that mean?<\/p>\n<p>When your mindset is all about selling your product, you\u2019re focused on you, your company, and what you need to make your quota or achieve your goals.<\/p>\n<p>When your mindset is about consulting, you\u2019re thinking about the prospect and what they need.<\/p>\n<p>To create a consultative sales pitch, you need to listen to and understand your prospect. Rather than selling your solution, ask them questions. Find out what their actual challenges are, and work with them to decide whether your product or service will help.<\/p>\n<p>It can be hard to break out of the product-selling approach. But many people are impatient with that\u2014or even completely over it. People know when you\u2019re trying to help them, and they know when you\u2019re trying to help yourself.<\/p>\n<p>Make it all about the prospect, and you\u2019ll be on your way to a great sales pitch.<\/p>\n<div><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.goodfirms.co\/company\/hellosells\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"width:243px\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.goodfirms.co\/badges\/color-badge\/business-services.svg\" title=\" Company\" alt=\" Company\"><\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":2588,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1550","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-articles"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v17.9 (Yoast SEO v17.9) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>What Makes A Great Sales Pitch - HelloSells Resources<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"A great sales pitch gets your prospect&#039;s attention and tells a compelling story.
