I Despise Most Traditional “Sales” Methods…
It’s because I think too much like a customer. Even when when I’m working for the company in question, I purposefully maintain the delusion of merely being a regular customer.
I pretend to be the customer, so that I am completely fair, honest, and effective at enhancing products and services.
I don’t have the cognitive biases associating with being an employee.
It’s not in my best interest that a product is perfect, so I can clearly point out weaknesses:
Replace Salesmen with Consultants or Advisors
Customers certainly don’t want to feel pressured. Hold up, though, that doesn’t mean to eliminate the staff:
Instead of salesmen (whose primary objective is selling a product), employees will be helpful consultants (whose primary objective is to ensure that the customer has the best experience possible, even if it means losing a sale):
I love this. Please keep writing stuff. This is awesome.
