Pitches should also highlight new developments within the steel industry including mergers & acquisitions, leadership changes or financial performance updates of key players.
Ethan might be particularly receptive to stories about how companies in the steel and automotive sectors are adapting their sales & marketing strategies amidst evolving market conditions or regulatory changes impacting these industries.
