Jade Hypoallergenic Earrings – NFTE Elevator Pitch 2011 Contest

Here’s another participant of the NFTE Elevator Pitch 2011 Contest. It’s awesome how she turned a problem she had with certain jewelery into a stylish solution and a business idea. Check out her pitch below:

What is an elevator pitch?
An “elevator pitch” is a carefully crafted message designed to explain a business to a potential investor. The catch — it must be given in the time that it takes to ride up an elevator.

Elevator Pitch Challenge
The Network for Teaching Entrepreneurship gives high school and middle school students the opportunity to take a sixty second idea, and turn it into an actual business. Each nominee here is either the owner or co-owner of his or her business.

Inspiring ENT: “Not So Average” from V. Rose

‘Not So Average’ from a new young artist V. Rose. talks about how we don’t have to put our worth in what other people say about us. I love the freshness and upbeat-ness of the song and video. V. Rose’s self-titled album was recently released, visit http://clearsightmusic.com to find out more and order today.

Who made up the rules of how you got to be
Picture-perfect everything, so magazine
I mean, I’m stuck in a world where I can’t just be me

So what if my nail polish always chips
So what if I prefer to where my kicks
You know, models aren’t really models when they’re not modeling

Why don’t you tell me something
Cuz what I’m really wondering
Is how long do you expect to be following
Trying to be a star like them
It’s not the way you’re gonna win, always trying to fit in… – Lyrics from “Not So Average”
