[QUOTE="Farmer_Joe, post: 8575075, member: 26598"] Feed reps seem to do it well, 2 ive had recently from Jameson strike up conversation about random stuff and have a natter, i like ringing them and always buy feed off them, im not a huge customer but they make effort, Ive got a few bits off rfs, the staff in store are excellent and spares people are great, but they seem fairly uninterested in sales unless your spending 50k, perhaps rightly so, i am small fry? however im sure if they were as personable as the feed reps they would have undoubtabley sold me more stuff? is it worth it for them to make this extra effort to get more sales? i cant answer that as im not in sales. take from that what you will. I often quote an experience from Robson Tractors, my late father and i visited and the salesman at the time watched us looking at a tractor for some time only to tell us when we approached him it was sold? then another with no brakes telling us 'yea that not been moved for a while' That day my dad would have bought anything had he had the sales patter and the salesman actually had the motivation to sell something. their loss. maybe take 60 seconds or 5 munities to engage with people, is a sale worth that?
