Aggressive Sales Techniques Could Land You In Jail

Image via WikipediaThere was an article posted in the news about four sales people being arrested in Yamhill County in Oregon. In the article it says authorities received dozens of complaints from citizens over aggressive sales techniques.
This kind of press makes my blood boil. It’s one of the reasons sales people get a bad name and people are so afraid we are going to try to sell them something they don’t need or want.
The article goes on to say, “large passenger vans drop off the salespeople in a residential area, and police say the young people aren’t picked up until they meet their sales quota”.
These kinds of sales practices are unnecessary. If sales people are taught the right way to sell and to put the prospects needs ahead of their own, our profession would take on a different view in peoples eyes. We would have a much easier time reaching people with the products and services that can make their lives so much more enjoyable.
