Hi -

Good sales pitch patter or other words of wisdom are welcome:

I'm trying to start up a local life drawing group. And I've been invited to present to a local artist's group, so I figure that's a prime time to make a sales pitch.

So many of these folks have told me "I just can't do portraits". I want them to understand the benefits of attending open studio whether or not they ever do a portrait.

What would YOU say?
