In the thrilling (and slightly transgressive) ninth episode of PR and Other Deadly Sins, Mark and Bob talk about the hazards of bad pitching, and how this fundamental skill seems to be in perennial need of being re-learned:
- a pitch they received for guest posting here (SPOILER ALERT: we said no)
- a somewhat inappropriate pitch to blogger Liz Scherer of Flash Free about heavy menstrual flow (seriously)
- a great pitch Mark received from former colleague Michael Von Herff that ended up with a guest post on Mark’s blog
- Some pitches to TV folk that have ended successfully for Bob’s Stephen King podcast, The Kingcast.
