    • I am getting ready to put a pitch together for my new web design company and this is the kind of stuff that I need to be reading. My real estate pitches are automatic and I always end up selling my clients on me, but web design is a bit of a different ball game. I'll check out Jim's stuff and see if I can get come ideas.
    • I think a big key in general when it comes to entrepreneurship to getting any success is taking time to think. Stop doing, doing, doing, step back and breathe. The best ideas come from reflection. Here's a great article I recently read on entrepreneur time management and business success.
    • @ryan, It's different pitching in the real estate environment, I do have to do that alot in my job. But I guess the difference with a good and bad pitch will be the depth of knowledge and honesty. Nice links too.
    • I feel like just about every time I have a meeting with a potential client, I'm doing a 'pitch', so to speak. So, this is a great post that I truly, truly appreciate. Any pointers regarding this subject come as a great help. Many, many thanks!
