I believe by "pitch" you are referring to the manner in which you approach a potential SFI, TC, PB, or ECA member. I believe each of these persons needs to be addressed differently, based on my past & current experiences/successes...
I usually don't lead a conversation by trying to recruit; however, if the conversation is already going in that direction, I'll ask, "what if I could help you get into business and become profitable in your first month, would you let me help?" The reason I say that to them is that when you start with SFI, your VP can cause you to become an EA almost immediately - and you automatically get commission.
A potential TripleClicks buyer, I have simply asked, "if I can find a better deal (on a particular item) than the one you normally have for item XYZ, would you buy mine?" Then what I do is scour the entire TC store for that item (on my own time). If I find it, I usually give them a $12 gift card as my way of saying "thank you" for shopping with me. That gift card serves a two-fold purpose... it allows them to be able to get a little discount off their product, it also built EXTREME loyalty towards me because they see that I am about them "receiving" not about me "selling." Works every time...
ECA's I simply pass out the flyers and let them do their jobs (smiles). I got 1 ECA from that type of advertising.
PB potential members can easily be attracted by mentioning the benefits of the "penny auctions." I let them know that they can literally buy an iPhone for under $10. I then let them know that value of getting some PB items and then reselling them on eBay, Amazon, or the likes.
So far, these have been quite successful for me...
