Last Friday, we selected our schools for our teachers’ day.
Therefore, today, I did not go to the stadium. Instead, I went to 15 high
schools at Prince George County delivering our vouchers and promotion
schedules. Most of the time, the administration gave me a positive response
about our teachers’ night. However, when I went to xxx high school, the
administrator gave me a hard time.
She said: “I do not like
sports! I do not want to go to your games. What will you do?” Suddenly, I was
shocked. However, my past sales working experience saved me. I asked her: “What
kind of activities are you interested in?” She said:” I like bingo!” Then I
replied:” I will tell my boss to design a bingo night and invite you to our
game. Are you interested in this idea?” She smiled. I knew I successfully
solved this problem. Actually, I believe this situation can make me better and
really appreciated her problems.
You will get a LOT rejections in the sales world, and that's a great respond to that lady. Great job! Keep asking open ended questions and you will get some surprise!
