Completing your pitch in 60 seconds is no easy task — but sealing a deal can be even harder.
On Entrepreneur Elevator Pitch, our board of investors has all kinds of questions for contestants, digging into their costs, marketing strategies and sales traction (or lack thereof). On this show, you have to know your numbers — and be able to think fast — if you want to make it out with a life-changing deal.
What else do our investors listen for? As Marc Randolph, co-founder of Netflix and an Elevator Pitch investor put it, "when you're making your pitch, I want you to tell it, not sell it. Sure, describe your product, but I'm not your customer — I'm an investor. I want to know that other people are going to like it. I want to know how that's going to make my investment profitable. And most importantly, I want to see that you have the chops to make your business work."

It’s the season finale of Entrepreneur Elevator Pitch and the final chance for one more round of entrepreneurs to secure life-changing investments from our board.
As always, entrepreneurs have 60 seconds to pitch their big ideas. If our board of investors likes what they hear, the elevator doors open, and negotiations begin.
And if they don’t like what they hear? "I'm not in the business of wasting time," says investor Rogers Healy, owner and CEO of Morrison Seger Venture Capital Partners.
It can be brutal, but don't get it wrong — investors might quickly turn down pitches, but when they see something they like, they pounce. "I cannot wait to see what happens if he gets into the boardroom!" says investor Marc Randolph, co-founder of Netflix, after hearing one particularly intriguing concept.
