		<description>You&#039;ve hit the nail on the head. Today&#039;s consumer is by far more educated and are not prepared to give pushy salesmen much time.

Pushy salesmen do not get repeat sales because they typically &quot;force&quot; customers to buy products that are not necessarily appropriate for solving the customers&#039; problems.

The best salesmen are the ones that listen not talk, talk, talk!</description>

		<description>I find it interesting when people say they are not in sales. We are all in sales. Whenever we have an idea that we want someone else to support, we are in sales. This article is excellent because it reminds us that &quot; If we  help enough people get what they want, we get what we want&quot; Zig Ziglar Thank you.</description>

		<description>Its good to read and indeed to broaden one&#039;s knowledge. I am not in sales I am a Service provider and certainly the essence of learning is the application of knowledge to meet your peculiar needs as its not possible for any teaching to capture all possible scenarios I have learnt and am ready to apply the knowledge.</description>

		<description>Very good advice. It reminds of what a book said about negotiating: both parties (the salesperson and the potential customer) have their own motivations and goals. The salesperson should remember that the quickest way to a sale is meet that customer&#039;s goals.</description>

		<description>I&#039;ve witnessed many salespeople who put literally no effort into making the sale personal! Just today I had a woman call and continue to sell though i came up with all the excuses in the world. She never disputed me, just kept going with the exact thing she&#039;d been saying before!</description>
