THE PRICELESS ELEVATOR PITCH 

MasterCard wanted to get noticed by small business owners and entrepreneurs at SXSW. We delivered a new stage for elevator pitches: an elevator. That was the easy part.

For three days straight, I watched over 300 elevator pitches and tweeted about them in realtime from the @mastercard account, which required a superhuman attention span. A challenge I have yet to recover from.




Results:

After two installations, over 330 entrepreneurs stepped in and pitched their businesses. Guest appearances included Left Shark, Sir Mix-a-Lot, and Hulk Hogan (RIP).
The Priceless Elevator Pitch was featured in Fortune, Entrepreneur and Yahoo, earning us over 3,000 mentions, 40,000 engagements and 4,000,000 impressions.
