What works much better is saying: hey, this is what we did. This is what
it enabled the client to do, using our service. These were the problems
we ran into and this is how we solved them. This is what we want to do

Talking mostly about the stuff you've done in a plain, non-pushy voice
is best. If it's impressive, the right people will notice. And it works
with women, too! ;)
