Tix www.brownpapertickets.com or at the door.
Come hear 6 local true stories about the November theme, “Deal Breakers”
DEAL BREAKER: Noun: a factor or issue that, if unresolved during negotiations, would cause one party to withdraw from a deal. Well, that sounds neat and tidy, and pretty serious. In reality the deal breaker does not have to be a “good reason” by society’s standards, it’s a very personal thing. What’s the bottom line? Or more to the point, what’s YOUR bottom line? What was a deal breaker for you?
Send me your pitch for a 10-minute true story about you and a deal breaker. We can only choose 6 tellers, so we’ll let you know in plenty of time who made the cut. We also have guidelines and a rehearsal to help get you ready. It’s a great event!
