38. A guide for Startups. How do I explain what I do to prospects?

As a salesperson or small business leader, the one thing that you need to do more than anything else is to explain what you do; at tradeshows, in meetings, or even at the bar.
The problem is when your explanation isn’t clear, people get confused about how you help, and they tune out.

This is something that can be easily fixed if you know how to communicate and how to explain in a way that makes people want to listen. In today’s episode, I’m going to teach you a formula that you can follow that will give you the perfect way to pitch to people at your next trade show.
