Jonathan Given your attendance at our recent webinar, I’d value what you think about the midterms’ policy implications. BGOV is a resource that delivers intelligence on legislative issues. We’re helping professionals like you track the ever-changing legislative agenda, committee makeups, and the lame-duck session. When do you have 30 minutes in the next two weeks? Best regards, Jacopo Peterman PITCH #1

Jonathan, Would 2 free hours of tech support come in handy? We help local businesses with technology. If you have any computer headaches right now, I’d like the opportunity to show you what we can do. PITCH #2

Hi Jonathan, Over the last 11 years, we’ve partnered with an array of firms and agencies on their clients’ video initiatives. From technology to healthcare, from the Fortune 500 to government entities, we’ve delivered T.V. ads, YouTube spots, documentaries, interviews, reels, and more. I was hoping my organization could share how we’ve helped in these different capacities, so that when your next need for video arises, you have a partner you can reach out to. Do you have some time in the next month, so that a couple members of our leadership team could come in and present to your team? Let us know when and we’ll make it happen. PITCH #3

Jonathan, I just saw your ad in Politico today, so I thought I'd reach out to see if you’d be interested in a quick phone call. My firm, Kramerica Industries, was founded by a former writer for the Wall Street Journal, and we specialize in writing and placing op-eds on policy issues. We currently work with over 30 Fortune 500 companies and many top trade groups in the U.S. And I think our op-ed services could be very effective at branding your spokespeople as thought leaders in diagnostics — and promoting your technologies and research. Is there any chance you might be interested in getting together in the next week or so? Best, Darin PITCH #4
