Bayview client and HSN pioneer to speak on “Life’s a Pitch”

Bayview client Bob Circosta, the first on-air host at Home Shopping Network and one of the most successful salesmen in the world, has sold over $1 billion in merchandise on the air. Bob will be sharing some highlights of his sales techniques during a session called “Life’s a Pitch” on Wednesday, November 10th. The event is being co-sponsored by Bayview Public Relations and the event host, The University of Tampa Entrepreneurship Center. Bob’s session will emphasize:

  • How to market anything and anywhere
  • What new businesses need to succeed (not money!)
  • The basics of pitching yourself, your company and your product
  • Electronic retailing and sales

Bob’s success started when he sold 112 electric can openers over the radio in 1977, which eventually led to the creation of the Home Shopping Network. He now specializes in training people how to sell anything, anywhere through his company, Bob Circosta Communications.

“Life’s a Pitch” will be held November 10th from 7:45 a.m.-9:30 a.m. at the Vaughn Center on the University of Tampa campus.  More information on the event, which is free and open to the public, can be found here.
