Dont be trying to sell dog food to a cat owner.
Not only will you be wasting your time
But you will also annoy the customer
And potentially ruin your reputation if they tell others their opinion.


The last thing you want is for someone to ask a question
About YOUR product
And you dont know the answer.
You need to know every nook and cranny of your product
Each benefit
Each negative


Now this doesnt mean be persistent and push with each customer
What this means is
Just because you didnt get this sale
Doesnt mean you wont get the next, keep trying.
Also
Know the line between persistence and being pushy with each customer.


Listen to what the customer is saying
What they want
What they like
What they dislike
Answer their questions - Dont go off on a tangent, stick the their question
Answer their doubts.


Yes, people will object.
People will say no.
They wont want your product.
But for every person who says no
Theres one who will say yes
You just have to find them.
