Great story! Thanks for you time and sharing another great example of why everyone should go the extra mile with the customer and their needs in mind.

I do not think so. I think there are good well trained professionals that do not lie. I do think there is pressure on sales people to meet goals in general. I feel as customers we should work with sales people and share things with them so they can help us solve our problems. When we speak to buy we are looking for solutions to problems. Good sales people know that and are good at solving those problems . Most people won’t lie because they don’t wanna get caught. I just think sometimes when a sales person doesn’t take the time they can slip up or say things maybe that they think to be true but may actually not be.

I agree, thanks for the comment.

Thanks for the comment! Persistence pays off and always will. There are many versions of persistence - just show you're fired up to be given the opportunity in some way, shape, or form.

@officialsefrey The buyer is in control, but many don’t realize it. Go back to what’s most important to you, and if they’re not providing a solution to that problem, simply ask for a different salesperson or a manager - or politely thank them and leave. You’d be shocked at the differences between store processes, salespeople, their training, attitudes, and even how things are done differently across states. You get what you want by clearly understanding the problem they need to solve for you.

Great points and thanks for the comment!

@@chrisdroberts thank you😀😀😀

The headspace comment was more about reframing the way you see yourself and blocking out how we can sometimes have imposter syndrome or feel down because others have more than we have or perhaps make you feel like you’re less than. I do encourage people, though to work hard to mimic those they inspire to be like and in your words, try to extrapolate some of the skill sets that they exhibit as your own . There are many people around us doing extra extraordinary things that we don’t notice and they make a difference .

Thanks for your comment!

Thanks for your comment. You would be surprised how may sales associates have little to no training, especially on going training. But this vid is just one example of many. Thanks for your comment!

Yes I did, I review products and customer behavior. Thanks for your comment!

This is great and prooves the point! Thanks for your comment.

Well, that’s a good question. Are you working with recruiters while you’re flipping burgers because I’ve never heard that before? Recruiters are gatekeepers hired by corporations to hire people and answer your question directly the only way to allow a recruiter if you’re selected to interview or send a résumé is to have a good attitude, smile, and be articulate when you answer questions . The idea in general is to know a bit about the company you’re interviewing for and try to present ways that you want to add value and help that company . If you can display a true desire to put in the work while bringing a good ideas that can help accompany grow you may have a leg up . While education and experience is important, recruiters often will give their suggestions on who they feel might be the strongest candidates and this is where your attitude, energy, enthusiasm and articulation can give you an edge.

Yes, all of this and more!

@donald-hamilton I agree, and you will not always get what you want as a salesperson, but if you have a process, like a standard greeting, you will get much further. Example: "Welcome in! If you give me just 5 minutes to tell you about our store, I’ll give you the space to look around and take it all in." End with a joke like "other wise I will chase you around the store like one thoes crazy people, an no one wants that" Then, take those 5 minutes to articulate your best pitch, protection plans, financing, specials, where things are in teh stor and such. Most of the time, customers will open up, giving you an opportunity to guide them to something they’re looking for. A simple explanation here, but it works.

Thank you for your comment!

Yes, it's pretty bad out there, but what used to be informative has turned into entertainment in the media as they chase viewership.

Unfortunately, it's mandatory to get uncomfortable in order to get comfortable. David Goggins has a great book called You Can't Hurt Me. He is the definition of this. Taking the first step is the hardest-just start talking to people. A good way to break your fear is by joining Zoom groups about topics you like. Then, take it into the person-to-person space. I made many mistakes when I first started, and now I speak in front of thousands of people at a time. Chris Anderson has a great book about TED talks as well that can help with speaking in front of people.

There is no set time. I think as you get more confident and do more to add value to an organization or person, you increase your chances of getting noticed. A good attitude and work ethic are contagious. Before you know it, people are talking about you, and management is starting to notice.

Thanks! Appreciate the comment.

She was not specific and has no solid data to back up her claim, which is common on talk shows. Regardless of the price increase in the grocery case, the margins for grocery stores are still very low. So much so that the government, which takes all of our taxes, gives some of them to these very same grocery stores to keep them in business. In severe inflationary periods, almost everything goes up. I would just suggest not being so selective with judgment and backing it up with very clear data to prove the statement. In my opinion, anything less is just irresponsible. Groceries have not gone up three to four times as a whole. Here is a great article on the grocery inflation rate of 28% over the last 5 years: www.nerdwallet.com/article/finance/price-of-food.

I feel that's where it starts, but it takes effort to keep the sale going and to add to the ticket while solving a customer's problem.

Yes, but I don't normally push brands to avoid bias. A simple online search for customer reviews of manufacturers could provide some insight. Some good quality brands are Lazyboy, Flexsteel, Stressless, Stickley, GTR Leather to name a few. Mid level brands are Ashley, Stanton, Emerald, Southern Motion and Minhas-Flair to name a few.

Thanks for your comment!

I belive there are quality product avaialbe from all over the world. Some of it depends on what components are in the product when building it and the warranty that is on that product.

@@nicopetey your welcome 🙏 Thanks for your comment!

@@iamnotsia thanks for your comment!

@blaisedominique I know right! We need $2 gas’s again…

@@taylorpjansen here are a few. Shop around on line. Use coupons they rock! Grow or raise some of your own food if possible. Buy in bulk and shop at places like Costco, Winco or woodland that tend to have lower prices per point. Here are a few. Grocery apps will also notify you of special and give coupons. I received one once that took five dollar bags of chips and drop them down to $1.99 if you bought four that’s a great deal .

Thanks for your comment! I have seen this as well.

Thank you, I appreciate that!

No not at all. If you are pushing your self and doing the extras over time you increase your chances of standing out. This could and should lead to more opportunities. It may take some time or maybe even a different job but it will happen. Stay positive and keep believing.

Thanks for your comment!

Love this, thanks for sharing!

Thank for sharing. Glad to help.

Great point. It really does boil down to wants and needs. Who is more motivated. Thanks for your comment.

Yes and he loves to tell that sotry. Who would have thought that bugging someone would pay off.

Density and firmness generally. Imported sofas sometimes have a firmer cushion, especially those from Asia. However, they will settle in and break down, becoming softer over time. Thanks for the question.
