Life's a pitch : selling your ideas to the president or the PTA
Set goals (because if you don't know what you want, you won't get it)
Speak loudly (without saying a word, ssshhh
May I have your attention, please!
Your place or mine : know the venue
The big news about small talk
Listen well and they'll eat out of your hand
What questions do you have?
Once more with feeling : making the emotional connection
Practice pointers for polished pitches
Persistence persuades : the vastly neglected art of follow-up
Provide good phone and email
Advance or retreat : determining when to withdraw
