I took a new job and need some advice, can you help?

Question

I have been a cliche for too long. I have been a statistic for as long as I can stand. I have been the starving artist. I have been the struggling comic. And I finally broke down and took a day job as a used carpet salesman.

Now I have never been in sales before and I wanted give it a shot. I figured, hey, nothing like a new challenge to stroke the comedic gray matter. But I have no idea how to sell anything, much less USED CARPETS! Does anyone have any sales tips?

Answer 1

Listen to the customer!

Know your product so you can match it to the customers needs.

Place the one you want to sell with items that are inferior to it.

Don't ask if they want carpet ask which one they want.
