The elevator pitch is a quick 30-120 second pitch that would often be used by a entrepreneur to pitch to a potential investor to spark interest. It gets its name from the idea of opportunistically getting in an elevator with the person you want to talk to and pitching them the idea in the time it takes for them to reach their floor.

For Temperamental having done a 2 minute pitch I was interested in seeing how I could get across the idea behind it in around 30 seconds.

Hello, My name is Jo Redwood, I am an inventor and entrepreneur and would like to speak about my product Temperamental.

Temperamental is a small spherical toy that senses its environment and then complains about it on a small display, only by changing its surroundings you can make it stop complaining. If it’s above a certain temperature it complains of being too hot, below it and it complains about being too cold. Temperamental also acts like an indoor weather station that can stream live data over the web giving it a wide range of other potential uses. The website would allow owners to compete to create the right conditions for their Temperamental and share their score via social media sites like Twitter and Facebook.
