30-second pitch (okay, less than 30):

The “f” word? Bargain Babe is not fearful of “f” words. In fact, several describe her: financially frugal and fearlessly factual; a female with finesse who favors fortune over fiscal folly and failure.

(Okay, okay–you get what you pay for! Fooey!)

I really like #4, except please get rid of the phrase “so they can provide for their loved ones”. It is SO old fashioned and maybe even trite! A lot of women like to get deals just for themselves. I suggest replacing that phrase with something about stretching their paycheck, or “making their dollars worth more”.

I think Bargain Babe makes saving kind of hip and trendy, something any sensible woman would want to be. It’s not a pitch, but why I read the blog.

WOW Michael. Great wording! I like something short and sassy. I do like #3 BB.
I created a 30 second pitch for my booklet last year.
Fifty Ways to Tour without Getting in the Van is about touring your music but not YOURSELF.
It’s served me well.
Can’t wait to get more BOOTCAMP updates!

I don’t think that you want to limit yourself by stressing that more women use your site. If this is a pitch to advertisers, you want to show that you have a varied audience.

I love number 5, but I would just change the part that says “make you a lot of money” to “save you a lot of money”. That way it shows that you are helping people retain more of the money that they already have instead of having them think that you are going to help them make money.
