Sales Pitch Speech
Infomercials on television last anywhere from 30 seconds to 30 minutes and are devoted to selling a product. Throughout the infomercial, the host tries to persuade you that his product is the best on the market. He uses demonstration and customer comments to convince you to buy the product. The voice is loud, demanding, authoritative, unforgettable. It makes you believe that you can't live one more minute without this product.
You are going to create a sales pitch speech for a product, book, movie, destination, invention, restaurant, etc... that you want to promote.
