Once, my friend said to me that in order to be a good salesman, you gotta learn it from the chaps in Petaling Street, Kuala Lumpur.

Regardless true or not, one has to see it to believe it. The way they promote their stuff, the way the reject your offer, they way they counter your offer and the way they give their final price, it is rather amazing to how they work their way to earn a living.

Anyway, one important point that a good salesman must not discard is to be courteous at all times. You must respect decisions made by customers regardless whether they are interested in the product you are promoting. Needless to say, it is how you present yourself that closes the deal rather than how great your product works.

Here’s the story;

I left my black iPod Nano (2nd Generation) in my mum’s car on Friday night hoping that nothing will be wrong since it was safe from sight. I left it at the side driver compartment situated at the door. Little did I know that my mum was sending the car for service the very next morning at Toyota Service Centre in Subang Jaya. Neither did I nor my mum realise that my iPod Nano was still in the car because it is black and ‘stealthy’ out of sight, the service advisor did not notice it too. All he (or she) knew was a Touch n Go card in the arm rest compartment. After service and all, the car was sent for a wash and vacuum as part of their package for free. And probably that was when some fucking bugger stole my iPod.

It’s probably too late now since I only got to know the lost just now because I was going to charge it for tomorrow usage.

Sigh…

Always remember, it’s your credibility that counts rather than the title you are holding in an organisation.

You can have all the titles you want but what you are capable of is what makes others remember your name.
