I bought Don's DVDs and they are very good. After experimenting a bit I've decided that a four item demo works best for me when working the fairs. Worm, thumb tip, svengalli, floating card (my Float This DVD) I offer the first three items for $6 each, 2 for 10, 3 for 15, the floating card with DVD is 20, but I I'll throw in one of the other items for free.

These seems to work well for me. But am thinking of just doing the one item pitch. I talked to someone who has made a small fortume pitching (mostly the worms) and he told me that he does much better with just with one item. $1500 vs $4000 + a day.

On another point, I am looking at doing multiple pitch products so if anyone wants to work the california circuit with me or in Las Vegas please contact me.

to be a hardcore pitchman you should just pitch ONE item.Even adding the squirmle as I do isn't being a true pitchman.


I was thrown off by Don when his DVD mentioned in adding the squirmal myself, but I see how it appeals to the younger crowd when your pitching. On a day that I blanked, it was the squirmals that didn't leave me broke...

I do give the "marks" one price for both so that helps to make the turn as a pitchman.


Just trying to understand if there any psycology and/or logic here what does it mean to turn as pitchman and what selling advantage does it give?

You have seen Billy pitch all the items you said but you have never seen him pitch more than ONE item at a time.Thats the point !


Following this through then shouldn't we seperate the Fuzzle pitch from the Svengali? If so then what would be the kicker for the Fuzzle? Or why not use the Fuzzle as a kicker with the 2cm? (or not?)....
