Believe it or not we are all selling something! It might be really obvious like selling cars or computers. Then again its mostly less obvious like getting dressed for an interview or selling a raffle ticket for a charity. Most of us shy away from "sales" as a skill. Yet, many of us will go onto build successful careers involving 'sales'! The fact remains we will ALL have to learn how to sell or promote ourselves. A job interview is about you promoting you benefits to a prospective employer. Applying for a home loan at a Bank is another sales 'pitch' (plan) we will all have to do. Learning to promote (sell) an idea or proposal is a life skill.
The "Pitch"

Your challenge is to create a funky new label and build a 30 second youTUBE promotion. The client is looking for a fun bright and humorous feel for their new product launch.
