@bric You can't sell a car without a sales pitch though

If we're looking at the pitch itself as the product though, then the employee has freedom of speech to control what's in the sales pitch, but not who the sales pitch goes to. The court ruling allows sellers to discriminate the content of their product, not to discriminate the recipient. so they wouldn't have to give some sort of "gay sales pitch", but they would have to give a sales pitch to gay customers.
