@RestoronixSean I once had a professor have a stroke while I was talking to him in class!

Oh man... Did you realize what was happening?

Not for a few minutes. I'd never seen it before.

Well I bet that was an interesting class. Hope he was ok after all that...

Serious Battleblocks Theater going on around here right now.

That's always a good one. Have the girls ever played Move or Die? That always seems to be a hit whenever I break it out for kiddos around their age.

Oh, snap!!! Rick and Morty are lumped into Move or Die???

@Dashrender said in The Motivations of Sales:

The key word think instills a feeling in the buyer that seller is working for the buyer. This is the intentional falseness/trick/social engineering that sales employ to throw the super off their game and start acting with emotion instead of logic.

No, there is no trick from the salesperson. ANY trick there happened when the buyer engaged in such a way that a problem was discussed. The social contract of sales means that you can never make this excuse. Buyers have a responsibility for their actions and cannot project this on a sales person. As long as they know that they are a seller, that responsibility remains with the buyer.

What do you expect from sales people otherwise?

"Hey says guy, I need a car, will this Kia Sorrento seat four people, that's what I need."

Your Ideal Sales Guy: "I don't know, I'm a sales guy, figure it out."
Real Sales Guy: "Well this seats four, so I think it will meet your needs."

See how silly it is to think that telling people that something is thought to solve a problem is some kind of trick?

"From what you've told me you regularly have 4 people in your vehicle. The Kia would get the job done but we also have this fully loaded SUV available for only $150 more per month. I think it would be much better for you. It will fit 7 people and has extra features added for comfort. Do you think that having a bit more space and flexibility would be a better fit for you?"

So would this upsell be unethical? It's technically more car than they need.

A good salesperson has a duty to ask the right questions and fully understand the needs of their prospects. If they don’t align properly with your needs, then it should be no surprise that they didn’t close the sale.

Right, and by selling them only what they need.

As a buyer, it’s important to note that meeting needs is only an obligation of sales if it encourages sales. If more sales are made by selling what the customer does not need, salespeople are obligated to let the customer buy.

How would this come up unless the sales person in unethically telling the client they need more than they really do?

I've actually had the discussion with salespeople in the past that their best customers have been other salespeople who understand the relationship, and the importance of clearly articulating their needs. They tend to get straight down to business. It simply saves time when the needs have been clearly defined. I’m not implying that one should try and intentionally screw someone over but ultimately it is up to the buyer to draw the line. If at the end of the transaction you feel a salesperson has overstepped or is pushing far past the needs without integrity then you might want to consider taking your business elsewhere. Salespeople should definitely be mindful, and customer centric, but you can’t put the buyers responsibility on them.

@scottalanmiller Yep! I'm awful at it, but let me know if you end up getting it.

I've been so bad about getting started on this... It's time to learn Spanish! I need to be able to understand those novellas @scottalanmiller.
