BIZ Experiences Elevator Pitch Season 4 Episode 3: 'There's No Crying in Baseball' In this episode of our weekly pitch show, the investors hear four strong pitches ... and one that ends in cursing.
BIZ Experiences Elevator Pitch invites ambitious BIZ Experiencess to step into the BIZ Experiences Elevator, then gives them 60 seconds to pique the judges' interest. It's a high-pressure, fast-paced environment in which startup founders need to race the clock while maintaining their composure to make a clear, deliberate pitch that covers at least three essential components:
- Defining the company
- Making the request
- Specifying what the investment money will be used for
The investors watch the pitch through a video livestream while the elevator ascends to the boardroom floor. Once the 60 seconds are up, the group votes on whether to open the doors or send the founder back down and pass on investing.

Finally, the show concludes with two strong pitches, one for a video review company and one for a repair and technician marketplace. Click play to learn which of the two swayed the judges to open the elevator doors and who managed to secure an investment.
