For a good "Elevator pitch," you need to make sure you set a goal for what you want to accomplish. For example, a goal for a "normal" sales pitch would be to make a transaction. A goal for a recruiting pitch would be to sign up an affiliate.
However, with such a short time for a presentation (30 seconds or less), it would be unrealistic to expect to "close a deal" with the pitch. Instead, your goal should be to break the ice. Have a card in your hand so you can give it to the person at the end of the conversation and that will open up the door for the transaction to take place later.
As far as the content of the conversation is concerned, you should check out the ads on our marketing page. Inside the banners and other materials, you will find plenty of "one-liners" you can use to start the conversation.
Once you get the conversation started, you can give the person a card and tell them to check it out later. This will leave a good impression because you didn't push for a decision right away.
