The traditional model is that pitching is just considered part of the job and it's baked into one's salary. People sometimes refer to the extra work as a "pitch tax," and over time there has been resistance against it. Some smaller or more progressive agencies will have an incentive program, so there's a "win bonus" if the firm lands an account.
i have not heard of a pitch tax, will look into it
