Overchoice makes customers more picky and even fickle - if the product doesn't grab them right away, they probably won't buy it.
All this makes the job of salespeople quite challenging, but not impossible.
If you want to be a successful salesperson, you need to be able to sell, to persuade, to negotiate. You need to be able to influence events in your life. You have to be a salesman every day, every hour of the day.

- Personal Selling Basics.
- Techniques for making contact with a customer - creating a good first impression.
- Basic types of sales questions and techniques for asking questions.
- How to create a sales presentation that sells?
- How to handle customer objections?
