This activity is based off of an old TV salesman named Billy Mays. He would start every pitch with “Billy Mays here for [insert product here]” and enthusiastically sell his product.
- Your job is to emulate him, spending 1-2 minutes giving a persuasive impromptu pitch for your product.
- Each scout should take a turn, making sure to keep to the time limit of between 1 and 2 minutes.
- Appoint a time keeper to make sure you adhere to these time limits.
