One of the best aspects of a good business pitch is a sense of clarity. If the person pitching isn't confident or doesn't have an obvious purpose, that can set off alarm bells in the minds of potential investors.

This week's Entrepreneur Elevator Pitch introduces a crop of entrepreneurs who run the gamut of business ideas. Every week, the judges demonstrate they will accept an uncertain pitch, if there is the possibility of filling out an unfamiliar space which is not overcrowded.
