Pitch The Room

Sell something nobody here wants. They cannot leave.

Infomercial rules. You've been handed a product with no market and four slides to move it: the product, a pain nobody knew they had, insulting pricing, and a closing offer. The room rates you on whether they'd actually buy.

How it works

  1. 1.Everyone gets a different unsellable product
  2. 2.Invent a problem it solves
  3. 3.Pricing must be genuinely offensive
  4. 4.Close hard โ€” there is no second pitch

Your deck is already started

Nobody starts at a blank white slide. Every player gets these 4 slides pre-laid-out in the Clean Deck theme, with a prompt on each one telling you what goes there.
