Back to the original question not that anybody cares (just kidding) the best experience I had was selling farm equipment (AC) Shhhh! I used to have coffee with some of the local dealer sales people and we would take turns at each ones dealership and we used to kid each other about Gosh!! how many gutted tractors do you have in your shop? Of course the one that sold the most had the most and so forth and I asked the salesman who was older than me what do you think the key is? He said it's all about marketing son we sell items from coffee makers to chainsaws with the company logo on them you gotta sell the whole family on your product and then it's a longterm relationship that get's embedded for life. I pondered that for awhile then I realized its true because from the day I could first remember we always had a thermometer with a tractor on it and the first word I said was tractor but not just a tractor but that tractor not an AC by the way but I learned over the years to just maybe break away and try other things and I found the others were'nt much different it's just what was emblazened in our head. In summary look at Harley-Davidson one of the top marketers in the country are they the greatest motorcycle ever made? Don't know I own one but it has issues versus what's out there but I like it for the sound and low end torque. Just an example of marketing just like the media no one wants to read about nothing happened in the world today Ho-Hum. CT
