Re: Pitches
One of my favorite activities at fairs is listening to the pitchmen!
Re: Pitches
I have been in this business my entire life. If you have any questions about it all you have you do is ask.
Re: Pitches
Note in most videos of pitchmen eye contact is generally at a minimum. There is a reason for this as I previously indicated.
Re: Pitches
Mark, you are correct about eye contact in this case. When I lived in Ft. Myers, Florida, there is a flea market there called Fleamasters. I absolutely LOVED watching the various pitchmen! They did not push junk. Even if directly asked a question, eye contact was impossibly brief. Just a glance, and then back to the "over-the-crowd" gaze, as I call it.
Mark you are a CLASSIC pitchman, and I could watch you all day!
