About the author

Dave Garland III

<p>It wasn&rsquo;t until after obtaining a business degree in marketing that Dave gained most of his unique, and experiential, understanding of the principles involved in human manipulation and motivation. His distinctive perspective and insight into the realm of sales pitching is based in his empirical study and real world involvement. In addition to his former position as sales manager of a national shipping and distribution company, Dave&rsquo;s experience runs the gamut from owner of a nationally distributed greeting card company, to a successful real estate investor and custom homebuilder, to sculptor, screenwriter and author. He presents his far-reaching knowledge and understanding in the context of how extensively and inclusively sales pitches permeate each and every aspect of our lives.</p>
