Fine Tune Your Elevator Speech Leave Them Knowing the Pain Points You Solve | Whether you are at a networking event or being asked what you do for a living, you often times only have 30, 60, 90 seconds to tell folks what it is you do.  Many of us, tell them the industry we are in but fail to tell them the pain points we solve.
