    Great pitch, it got me all excited to make a deal..ok maybe not

    I've spent some time in sales, Your speaking at a higher level of audience (global tech) but most of us need advice at a low scale.. It's always good to "think big" it's like giving yourself power of suggestion, you think hard enough about a situation or something you want to happen "It will happen" If you truly believe in yourself an the product you want to sell you will do great! but you must have follow through! an you have to see where you want you and your company to go! seeing is believing.. I could tell anyone how to make $10.00 turn into $500 in one day! but if you don't believe me, or believe in yourself then it won't happen.
