An elevator pitch is 30 to 60 seconds of spoken communication that answers 'what do you do?' in a way that is memorable, clear, and invites more conversation. Most people either over-explain or under-explain. Getting it right requires spoken rehearsal, not just thinking about it.
WHAT TO LOOK FOR
Clarity test
Deliver your pitch to Lucy and ask what Lucy thinks you do. If the answer is vague or imprecise, the pitch needs simplification. Your audience should be able to describe your work accurately after hearing you once.
Memorability test
After your pitch, ask Lucy to repeat back the most memorable thing about what you said. If nothing stands out, you need a sharper hook or a more specific framing of your work.
Naturalness iteration
Deliver your pitch five to ten times in slightly different wording until it sounds like something you would actually say spontaneously rather than something you rehearsed. The goal is naturalness, not verbatim accuracy.
TLDR:Deliver your elevator pitch to Lucy and ask whether it was clear, memorable, and invited a natural follow-up question. Then adjust and deliver it again. Ten minutes of back-and-forth with Lucy will sharpen your pitch more than an hour of thinking about it alone.

Practise versions of your pitch for different contexts: networking events, job interviews, meeting new colleagues. The core is the same but the emphasis shifts. Being able to adapt in real time is more valuable than having one perfect version.
