Other names for your 60 second marketing pitch:  30-second commercial, 2-minute pitch, Elevator pitch

So what does this mean and when do you use each of these?  What is the structure?  Are you transitioning to another industry?  It's all about the positioning and your pitch should be targeted to the position you want next.  Come and learn some techniques on how to accomplish this.  Your pitch is similar to the marketing statement or executive summary on your resume. 
 
This will be an interactive workshop, so bring your resume and give some thought to the following questions:
 
    What have you been doing?
    What is your unique selling proposition?
    What kind of assistance are you looking for?
    Are you transitioning to a different industry  or position?
