The Great Lakes Entrepreneurial Quest Results Are In!!

For the past several years, I have participated as a coach in the GLEQ competition. Last week awards where given out to the top companies and business plans for new companies. Hundreds of thousands of dollars where handed out for the best ideas. This year, I had the privilege of being a Pitch Judge to listen to the top contenders to determine the winners and losers of the competition. What was interesting to me was how people can have a great concept or idea, but cannot articulate their idea in a quick overview. Take the time to make sure your message is solid, and easily understandable. Without a clear message, you may be just wasting time. At Genesis Turnaround, our message is "We help save struggling companies from destruction!" This message is clear and direct. What do you do? Can you deliver it clearly in one or two sentences?
