On Pitch Ninja by, Mike Moyer

“There are few people who can make your

presentation sing like Mike Moyer. Pitch Ninja is the best guide I’ve seen to turning the typical blah presentation into a compelling, charismatic performance — one that allows you to connect with the audience in ways you never knew were possible. This is a must for anyone trying to communicate and sell a concept.
