English term or phrase: give one\'s pitch
Vad kan Give one's pitch betyda i det här sammanhanget?:

A digital strategy director for a large online business goes to lunch at a local restaurant with an advertising representative.
The representative gives his pitch during the meal and pays for the lunch.

Är inte grundbetydelsen att man insisterar starkt på något? Men det verkar inte passa in här.
