Whether it’s made on an elevator or on the ground floor, the 30- to 60-second business pitch that’s named for the place it’s often made should sound unrehearsed and authentic even if it’s the product of exhaustive thought and preparation — which it should be.The “elevator pitch” is a concise summary of a product, service or idea that is so intriguing or compelling that the listener wants to hear more. It’s the hook that catches the attention of the potential investor, client or collaborator.
Too often, these proposals sound contrived or desperate, crammed with so much data or drama that the intended recipient can’t digest it all in the allotted time and consequently...
Madame G guide to the stars WEEK OF APRIL 28
Crisis much? May 2 ushers in a New Quarter Moon and this stirs up anxiety. You may use this for good or bad. A little stress is good—it encourages growth and action.

Gallup solar deal is no deal at all
April 16, 2017
I recently read about a City sponsored solar project going to the County Commissioners asking for a 6-to-8 year tax abatement, which mean they would not have to pay taxes on equipment to the tune of $800,000 to $1,000,000.
I understand local businessman Joe DiGregorio spoke against granting the tax abatement mainly citing the Counties deteriorating finances, which is limiting County services and causing employee layoffs. He felt the Commissioners should protect future tax revenues and he wasn’t convinced the energy savings would be realized as predicted.
Well, I tend to agree with Mr. “D”. He is a very smart businessman.

Last week is in the past. This week expect to slow down. A New Moon emerges on April 27. This marks a quiet and restful time for quiet contemplation. Use your time wisely. Meditate on past behavior and how you can improve. Don’t dwell on your mistakes. Your best bet is to make a list of your top areas for improvement. Madame G says think and take action! GO!

Learn to use those quiet moments for understanding and acceptance. You must learn to live with what you...
