You Are A Salesperson For The Company That Markets The Product Featur
You are a salesperson for the company that markets the product featured in your course project. You arrive at the customer's office to find out that your sales meeting has been canceled. On your way down the elevator, you see the key decision-maker who apologizes for the last-minute cancellation and asks you to share the highlights of your sales presentation. For your discussion: Write the sales pitch you would give during your 30-second elevator ride. Remember, the goal is to convince the decision-maker to take on your product based on this sales pitch so be sure your pitch is both fact-based and persuasive! Respond to another student whose product you would buy (if you were the decision-maker) and discuss what aspects of the sales pitch are most persuasive.

Response to a peer’s product
I found the pitch for the productivity management app quite compelling. The most persuasive aspect was how the sales approach highlighted measurable outcomes—such as increased efficiency and time savings—which directly impact the bottom line. Emphasizing ease of use and quick implementation also alleviates common concerns about disruptions during adoption. Overall, the focus on tangible benefits and straightforward integration makes the pitch especially convincing from a decision-maker’s perspective, suggesting this product has real potential to add value immediately.
