sales pitches

Convincing product presentations

Sales pitches are persuasive presentations meant to convince someone to buy something or accept an idea.

The term applies to formal business proposals and casual attempts alike: He launched into his sales pitch before I could object.

The phrase often carries skepticism—when you sense a sales pitch coming, you brace for manipulation rather than information.
