Quote from @Bruce Woodruff:

@Joe Villeneuve Lol....

I would suggest that when you have a potential client/mentor/customer cornered and only have 30 seconds....just keep it short and sweet. Do not tell them everything about you, even if you have the time. Tease them with incomplete details and leave them wanting more. That will give them a reason to call you and ask for more. Be mysterious...

I probably shouldn't mention this, but I usually tell my students this, so 
I might just as well mention it here.  Have a fake phone call.
I hear a lot of heads being scratched out there (I never knew what that sounded like,...until now).
No, seriously.  Most people don't like to be sold to, so be subtle.  Let them sell you to them.  I've done this, successfully I might add, too many times to count.
Whenever you hear anyone, anywhere, talking about REI, especially if they are having problems, or want to sell/buy/rent, pick up your phone, and give your sales pitch to the person on the phone.  Your conversation should be based on answering the problems you overheard, and/or satisfying their wants/needs.  Make sure you have dead air (the person on the other end talks too), and make it real.  You don't have to finish all your sentences.  Like Bruce said, leave them wanting more.
